Firewall rules enforced locally
All rules are applied and enforced directly on the Node, by the Node.
Enforcing rules applicable only to the applications running on a specific node, greatly reduces the complexity of the ruleset. Rules are executed faster, cheaper, and most importantly it provides the security team greatly improved visibility to the network's security model.
Enables Zero Trust model
Zener denies all traffic by default. Only explicitly allowed traffic flows through.
By allowing all outbound traffic and analyzing all inbound traffic at each Node, it is now possible to deny all inbound traffic. Only explicitly allowed traffic will be granted access. This is the first step in applying a Zero Trust security model.
Powerful automation
Zener is powered by scalable and modelbased automation.
Automation powers a model-based Firewall ruleset that reduces the complexity, and ensures the correct rules are applied to new and existing nodes at all times. The setup can be static, or deeply integrated with other parts of your CI/CD process.
High performance that scales
No slowdown in performance, even at the scale of 100,000 servers.
By mindful use of stateless and stateful connections, combined with inbound filtering only, it has been proven that even at large scale there is no performance degradation by using SDF. Zener adds important security measures to new high-performing network segment topologies based on horizontal scaling.
Complete insights
One RESTful API and GUI for granular insights into the network.
Zener provides full transparency and insights both to the network status, traffic data, user access and work logs. With a single interface for defining all firewall rules that provides access- and version control, your team has complete control and can trace any change made in the network.
Open APIs
Integrate seamlessly with third party applications like CI/CD systems.
This streamlines the release process of new micro network segments, micro services and applications, and the communication between release management and house security becomes structured, efficient and error-free. Zener makes sure to apply the right firewall rules wherever applications run.
