Explanation

Microsegmentation is a zero-trust security approach that enforces fine-grained access controls between workloads, such as applications running on different servers or containers. It allows organizations to define specific communication rules based on identity, context, or behavior, ensuring that only authorized traffic is permitted - even within the same network segment. This approach helps minimize lateral movement by attackers and improves overall security posture in dynamic environments like data centers and cloud platforms.
