Recognized for innovating cyber resilience in identity-driven microsegmentation and automated policy creation

ORLANDO, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Zero Networks, the leading provider of zero trust security solutions, today announced it has been named a Leader and Outperformer in the 2026 GigaOm Radar Report for Microsegmentation, recognizing the company’s approach to identity-based microsegmentation and automated policy generation for modern hybrid environments. Zero Networks is positioned in the Innovation/Platform Play quadrant, reflecting both the platform’s capabilities and the company’s strong development pipeline.

“Security teams know that limiting lateral movement is core to cyber resilience and containing modern attacks, but traditional segmentation approaches are often complex and require significant manual effort to manage,” said Benny Lakunishok, CEO of Zero Networks. “We believe our recognition as a Leader and Outperformer in the GigaOm Radar reflects the growing need for solutions that simplify segmentation through automation and identity-driven policies while giving security teams full control over enforcement.”

Zero Networks’ microsegmentation solution automatically analyzes network behavior to group and tag assets before generating recommended segmentation policies that organizations can review and apply manually or automatically. This approach enables organizations to deploy segmentation at their own pace while maintaining full operational control over policy enforcement.

The report highlights the platform’s strengths, including its:

Ability to segment entities across on-premises, cloud, OT, and IoT environments and identifies a distinguishing capability: the application of just-in-time, network-layer MFA for privileged protocols such as RDP and SSH, designed to reduce lateral movement risk.

Policy definition engine, which leverages deterministic automation to analyze observed traffic and asset metadata to recommend segmentation policies. These policies can then be enforced through a host-based firewall with detailed context such as IP address, port, process, and user identity.

Identity-based policy enforcement, allowing organizations to define access controls using attributes such as operating system type, patch status, Active Directory groups, and cloud-native labels or tags – enabling granular controls independent of traditional network constructs.

The GigaOm Radar report examines 15 leading vendors and evaluates solutions based on capabilities such as automated discovery, policy definition, incident response, scalability, and zero trust adherence.

Further reinforcing its recognition for innovation and leadership in the category, Zero Networks recently won Gold in the microsegmentation category of the 2026 Globee® Awards for Cybersecurity.
