<\/div>\n

Axis Security, a provider of cybersecurity services focused on zero trust<\/a>, has announced a set of new features on Atmos ZTNA (zero trust network access), the software-defined network<\/a> access module within its cloud-native SSE<\/a> (security service edge) platform, Atmos.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the company has revealed a suite of tools to help companies migrate from traditional ZTNA<\/a> to Atmos’ ZTNA service.<\/p>\n

\u201cZTNA 1.0 lacked support for legacy network protocols, few even failing to inspect private traffic,\u201d says Gil Azrielant, CTO and co-founder of Axis. \u201cAtmos ZTNA supports all ports and protocols to fully replace VPNs. Additionally, the multicloud architecture with the new features added makes Atmos ZTNA the most highly available, and scalable ZTNA solution.\u201d<\/p>\n

The additions to Atmos ZTNA come shortly after the company\u2019s formal release<\/a> of Atmos in April as a cloud-native alternative to data center-based, legacy network architectures and SSE platforms. Other modules on Atmos\u2019 SSE include a secure web gateway (SWG), cloud access security broker (CASB), and a custom dashboard monitor into network data.<\/p>\n

Atmos ZTNA, on launch, offered connectivity through its 350 Atmos edge facilities running on the backbone of global cloud services such as AWS Global Accelerator, Google Cloud Platform, and Oracle.<\/p>\n

Atmos ZTNA includes automation<\/strong> enhancements<\/h2>\n

Atmos ZTNA has now onboarded several “hyperintelligent” features that provide an edge over legacy ZTNA solutions, adds Azrielant. One of these features includes leveraging telemetry data gathered from identities, devices, and connectors to allow multicloud point of presence (PoP) resolution for the selection of the most optimal connectivity path and autoselecting between AWS, Google, or Oracle PoP for brokering.<\/p>\n
