Frequently Asked Questions
Why do firewalls create an encryption blind spot?
Firewalls create an encryption blind spot because they cannot inspect encrypted traffic by default. Consequently, malicious payloads hide inside secure channels. Therefore, enabling deep packet inspection is mandatory.
How do we overcome SSL inspection limitations?
Organizations must deploy dedicated hardware accelerators for decryption. Furthermore, strict policies ensure only necessary traffic is inspected. Thus, our team optimizes this process efficiently.
What is the impact of uninspected network traffic on security?
Uninspected network traffic hides malicious payloads from basic firewalls. Without SSL decryption capabilities, security teams remain completely blind to threats. Therefore, total visibility requires active decryption.
How does Zero Trust eliminate perimeter reliance?
Zero Trust continuously verifies every user and device. It eliminates implicit trust, ensuring that even authorized users cannot access resources without strict validation. Thus, we enforce this effectively.
