About Guardicore (Akamai)

Guardicore is now owned by Akamai, which sells its segmentation product as Akamai Guardicore Segmentation. It applies segmentation policies that block malware from using the ports and protocols it needs to spread between servers and data centers. Policy enforcement is separate from the underlying network, so policies can change without network changes.

Products

  • Centra: The Guardicore Segmentation engine, which generates policy rules for the assets selected.
  • Guardicore Platform Agent (formerly Zero Trust Client): An agent for zero trust access to applications in data centers and hybrid cloud.

Used for

  • Mapping traffic between assets before writing policy.
  • Building policies from templates for known applications such as Active Directory.
