Why Most Microsegmentation Projects Fail-And How Andelyn Biosciences Got It Right
Briefly

Andelyn Biosciences faced challenges with traditional microsegmentation approaches while securing its research and manufacturing environments. After struggling with an ineffective network access control (NAC) solution for two years, they opted for Elisity's identity-based microsegmentation. This shift allowed them to enforce least-privilege access quickly without the traditional complexities of agent deployments and firewall rules. This success illustrates how agile microsegmentation can effectively achieve Zero Trust security, addressing the critical need to protect internal networks against sophisticated cyber threats while maintaining operational efficiency.
The complexity of agent-based enforcement and manual policy management made it difficult to adapt the solution to Andelyn's rapidly evolving environment.
Microsegmentation has emerged as a key strategy in achieving Zero Trust security by restricting access to critical assets based on identity rather than network location.
