Last updated October 4th, 2023 by Avigdor Book

Navigating the intricate world of hybrid networks can be daunting. The dynamic interplay between on-premises and cloud systems introduces a multitude of security challenges. As enterprises increasingly adopt a hybrid work model and integrate various cloud services into their corporate network, the necessity to have a robust solution in place becomes paramount.

The keyword here? Hybrid network security.

Hybrid Network Security: The Basics

When we talk about hybrid technology in networking, we’re discussing the integration of both traditional (on-premises) and cloud environments. This means the network devices in a hybrid device setup can span from traditional routers and switches in data centers to virtual appliances in the cloud.

Such an integration comes with its share of benefits, like scalability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. However, it also presents security concerns. How is the hybrid topology secure? The answer isn’t straightforward because the attack surface expands, vulnerabilities can creep in from multiple endpoints, and the challenge of ensuring zero trust security becomes even more crucial.
