The Illumio Segmentation Lab is a demo intended to provide hands-on experience in performing both application dependency mapping and host-based segmentation using Illumio.

Zscaler is responsible for securing more than 400 of the Forbes Global 2000 companies. They provide security as a service delivered through a purpose-built, globally distributed platform. The focus of this lab is zero trust access utilizing a solution known as Zscaler Private Access (ZPA). ZPA is a cloud service that provides seamless, zero trust access to private applications running on public cloud or within the data center. With ZPA, applications don't need to be exposed to the internet, making them completely invisible to unauthorized users. This service enables the applications to connect to users via inside-out connectivity versus extending the network to them. It disrupts legacy approaches to remote access such as traditional VPN, establishing per-service dynamic encryption and trust evaluation.

First coined in 2019, Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is the convergence of network and security frameworks. SASE aims to reduce the operational complexity that comes with a cloud-first delivery model. Application assurance and service optimization are achieved via global Point-of-Presence (POPs) and peering with carriers providing high-performance backbones. The combination of all these factors gives the user a consistent and secure experience no matter where they are located.

Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), coined by Gartner in 2019, is a solution that blends networking and security into cloud scale architecture that optimizes end user performance and improves security for an organization. With the Zscaler and SD-WAN integration, you can rapidly gain access to cloud-delivered security in minutes. This market leading API automation makes it very fast and agile to deploy and manage the network and security environment of hundreds or even thousands of remote sites.

In today's cloud-centric, BYOD-driven and distributed microservices landscape, traditional security measures such as VPNs and perimeter defenses struggle to keep pace with the increasing need for enterprise security. Implicitly trusting entities within a network poses significant risks, necessitating a paradigm shift. Enter Zero Trust—an approach that requires independent security for every enterprise asset and authenticates and authorizes user and process identities at every level. This lab explores the critical role of OAuth in enabling a Zero Trust architecture and allows lab users to implement & test the OAuth Solution.

The Akamai Guardicore Centra Foundations Lab aims to give people a hands-on experience with the central segmentation solution through a variety of use cases.

Over the past few years many customers deploying ACI have opted for using the "Network-Centric" approach for implementing their ACI installations. Customers who no want to migrate to a Application-Centric approach often find their workloads are spread across multiple subnets, and grouping them by application is difficult. This lab provides a technique on how to make this migration simpler

VMware Workspace One and VMware SASE are the key components of remote and mobile end user experience. Using these technologies IT can assure that end users devices and their actions are secure. Workspace One provides a zero-trust architecture with continuous verification of endpoint compliance, by allowing only conditional access to applications, and by reducing the attack surface wherever possible. SASE provides network edge security controls like zero-trust network access, cloud access security, web gateway services and more. This simulation lab will walk you through the settings and features of Workspace One UEM, Workspace One Tunnel and SASE.
