Network Segmentation: Increase Security and Focus on Compliance

"With network segmentation, we really are looking for isolation. We want to get that 'thing' and put it into a safety deposit box where you have secure access to it. Nobody else has physical or logical access to it. That's really what we are trying to do with segmentation."

Chris Skarda (PCI DSS QSA, CISSP, CISA, CCNA) sits down with Host and Principal Security Analyst Jen Stone (MCIS, CISSP, CISA, QSA) to discuss how network segmentation can support your compliance and security efforts.
