Microsegmentation That Stops Lateral LAN Threat Movement with the Cato LAN NGFW

Stop Lateral Threat Movement with Cato’s LAN Next-Gen Firewall!
Traditional VLAN-based segmentation is no longer enough to stop lateral movement within your corporate network. Attackers exploit east-west traffic, moving undetected between users, devices, and workloads. How do you enforce microsegmentation without increasing operational complexity?
Cato Networks introduces L7 LAN NGFW, a native feature of the Cato SASE Cloud Platform that brings application-aware security to your local LAN. It prevents unauthorized access and restricts communication across VLANs without manual configurations or complex ACLs.

In this demo, we’ll show:

• How attackers move across the LAN when segmentation is too broad
• How to enforce precise LAN firewall policies that block unauthorized access
• How Cato’s cloud-native solution eliminates lateral threat movement—without hardware firewalls

With Cato’s LAN NGFW, you get scalable, centralized, and layer 7-aware microsegmentation seamlessly integrated into your SASE architecture.
