AlgoSec has launched AlgoSec Horizon, said to be the industry's first and only application-centric security management and automation platform designed for hybrid networks. By applying an application-centric approach to security, the AlgoSec Horizon platform enables security teams to manage application connectivity and security policies consistently across both cloud and data centre environments.

Gartner predicts that by 2027, 50% of critical enterprise applications will reside outside of centralised public cloud locations, underscoring the ongoing expansion, evolution and complexity of today’s network infrastructures. Yet, many businesses still have a segmented team that splits focus between development and security teams in an effort to ensure holistic protection. To combat these challenges, businesses are embracing unified platforms that converge cloud and data centre security teams to align strategies, unify policy enforcement and ensure consistent security within hybrid environments.

“Today's networks are 100x more complex as a result of the rapid acceleration of application deployment and network complexity, requiring organisations to embrace platformisation to unify security operations, automate policies and enhance visibility across infrastructures,” said Eran Shiff, VP Product of AlgoSec. “With the launch of the AlgoSec Horizon Platform, organisations now have full visibility into their hybrid-cloud network, allowing for increased security without business productivity interference.”

As the first and only application-centric security management and automation platform for the hybrid network, AlgoSec Horizon utilises advanced AI capabilities to automatically discover and identify an organisation’s business applications across multi-clouds and data centres, and remediate risks more effectively. The platform serves as a single source for visibility into security and compliance issues across hybrid network environments to ensure adherence to security standards and regulations.

Through AlgoSec Horizon, organisations are able to:

• Visualise application connectivity: Utilise advanced AI modules to discover and identify running business applications within an organisation’s network, including their connectivity, network zones, risks, vulnerabilities and resources, to reduce operational complexity and simplify management.

• Securely automate application connectivity changes: Ensure smooth business operations by intelligently automating security policy changes with a focus on business applications. AlgoSec’s intelligent automation minimises misconfigurations and enhances operational resilience to accelerate application delivery from weeks to hours.

• Prioritise risk mitigation based on business context: Prioritise remediation efforts based on the criticality of affected applications and associated risks, to ensure resources are effectively allocated to protect vital business processes. AlgoSec helps prioritise security efforts based on the criticality of business applications, industry best practices, relevant regulations and specific security policies, to ensure the most severe vulnerabilities are addressed first.

• Maintain application-centric compliance: Streamline regulatory adherence, make audits faster and easier to manage, and ensure that organisations remain compliant with minimal effort and reduce the risk of non-compliance penalties across the entire hybrid environment.
