Zero Networks, a leader in zero trust security, is empowering organizations to adopt the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency’s (CISA) new microsegmentation guidance, as highlighted by a recent Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) survey. The survey underscores the growing importance of microsegmentation, with 96% of respondents viewing it as critical for cyber defense.
EMA survey: 96% of 145 IT professionals see microsegmentation as vital.
CISA’s July 2025 guidance emphasizes microsegmentation for zero trust.
Zero Networks offers automated, agentless microsegmentation in days.
33.1% of respondents value instant threat containment most.
Saves 86% on total cost of ownership compared to legacy solutions.
Aligns with CISA’s focus on preventing lateral movement and ransomware.
On July 29, 2025, CISA released Microsegmentation in Zero Trust, Part One: Introduction and Planning, emphasizing microsegmentation as a cornerstone of zero trust architecture to reduce attack surfaces and limit lateral movement. This aligns with findings from an EMA survey conducted in June 2025, where 96% of 145 IT professionals, security practitioners, and business leaders rated microsegmentation as extremely or very important for cyber defense. The survey highlights a shift toward rapid incident response, with 33.1% citing instant threat containment as the top benefit, followed by halting lateral movement (20.7%) and meeting compliance requirements (14.5%).
Zero Networks delivers an automated, agentless microsegmentation solution that aligns with CISA’s guidance, enabling implementation in days rather than years. Unlike legacy approaches requiring manual rule-writing, Zero Networks’ deterministic automation engine simplifies policy creation, with 82.8% of survey respondents prioritizing automated policy management. Additionally, 47.6% value fast asset discovery, and 50.3% emphasize integration with multi-factor authentication (MFA) for privileged access. Benny Lakunishok, CEO of Zero Networks, stated, “With Zero Networks in place, networks defend themselves by design; nothing has to be found, mitigated or confined.”
The EMA survey underscores Zero Networks’ value, noting an 86% reduction in total cost of ownership compared to traditional microsegmentation solutions. By automating asset tagging and policy creation, and integrating identity segmentation and network-layer MFA, Zero Networks enables organizations to prevent ransomware and meet compliance needs without operational complexity. This supports CISA’s call for broad adoption, making microsegmentation accessible to organizations of all sizes.
CISA’s guidance, part of its Journey to Zero Trust series, targets Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies but applies broadly to enterprises. The EMA survey reflects a market shift, with 82% of organizations planning to implement microsegmentation within two years, driven by its ability to contain threats instantly. Zero Networks’ alignment with these trends positions it as a leader in enabling zero trust adoption, as evidenced by its Containment Island webinar series launching in September 2025.
Zero Networks’ innovative approach to microsegmentation empowers organizations to adopt CISA’s zero trust guidance efficiently. By simplifying deployment and reducing costs, it transforms cyber defense, preventing lateral movement and enhancing resilience across industries.
Zero Networks is revolutionizing network security with its effortless microsegmentation solution that stops ransomware and implements in days, not years. By automating asset tagging and policy creation, Zero Networks saves enterprises an average of 86% on total cost of ownership compared to legacy microsegmentation solutions that rely on time-intensive manual processes. Combined with advanced Identity Segmentation and Zero Trust Network Access solutions, and fortified by network-layer MFA, Zero Networks’ platform accelerates zero trust initiatives at companies of any size.
