Cloud network security company Aviatrix introduced new features for filling critical cloud network security gaps in today’s cloud-based environments. The software rollout includes hybrid cloud transit and distributed cloud firewall (DCF) integration, with enhanced threat intelligence to help enterprises secure their cloud egress and hybrid-cloud connectivity.
“In today’s cloud-first world, enterprises are navigating a complex landscape of increasing security threats and expanding connectivity demands,” said Anirban Sengupta, the CTO and SVP of engineering with Aviatrix. “With our latest enhancements, we’re delivering not just advanced threat intelligence but extensions to our secure, high-performance hybrid cloud connectivity to meet the demands of modern enterprises. Our goal is to provide enterprises a portfolio of comprehensive point solutions that simplifies cloud networking while closing critical security gaps. These two enhancements make adopting Aviatrix easier, lowering the cost, and delivering quick ROI to a pressing need.”
Aviatrix’s hybrid cloud transit extends the company’s secure cloud networking fabric to major data centers and mid-mile providers such as Equinix and Megaport. Enterprises can now leverage Aviatrix networking capabilities – including encryption, visibility, and resilience – beyond the traditional hyperscaler. By integrating these capabilities into the mid-mile infrastructure, Aviatrix expects to streamline global hybrid cloud connectivity, allowing organizations to build flexible, secure and scalable network backbones without relying on legacy networking appliances.
Aviatrix also enhanced its distributed cloud firewall (DCF) with next-gen threat intelligence. ThreatIQ (“ThreatGroups”) and GeoBlocking (“GeoGroups”) are now fully integrated with DCF for advanced threat protection. This supports dynamic, real-time protection, using up-to-date threat data while offering more granular control over security policies. In addition, DCF now supports improved logging capabilities for seamless integration with enterprise SIEM systems, allowing organizations to incorporate cloud security into their threat-hunting and forensic workflows. These enhancements empower enterprises to defend against advanced threats while simplifying network security management.
The latest Aviatrix software release is now available.
