How do you use network segmentation to reduce blast radius?
Answer
Segmentation limits lateral movement.
Techniques:
- Separate networks by environment and sensitivity
- Restrict east-west traffic
- Use private endpoints
- Apply least-privilege firewall rules
Combine segmentation with strong identity controls and monitoring. Network controls alone are not sufficient without auth and auditing.
