Automating Microsegmentation Policies with CI/CD
The article discusses the importance of automating microsegmentation policies using CI/CD practices. It highlights how traditional firewall management can be inefficient and suggests that treating policies like application code can streamline the process. By implementing policy-as-code, organizations can achieve faster deployment, better auditing, and improved security oversight.
