iboss Zero Trust SSE
Purpose Built for Zero Trust to Protect Organizations from Breaches and Data Loss
The iboss Zero Trust SSE prevents breaches by making applications, data and services inaccessible to attackers while allowing trusted users to securely and directly connect to protected resources from anywhere
The iboss Zero Trust SSE uses a single global security edge which sits in front of all resources, on-prem or in the cloud, making them inaccessible by attackers and only accessible by your trusted users. The Zero Trust security edge inspects every single transaction between users, devices and protected resources and selectively allows trusted and approved requests while denying all others. Because it is a single unified Zero Trust SSE, security and visibility is the same regardless of the resource protected, including data in the cloud or within the office. CASB, Data Loss Prevention (DLP), Malware Defense and visibility is applied equally and consistently to all requests, regardless of resource type or location.
The iboss Zero Trust SSE is a direct implementation of the NIST 800-207 Zero Trust Architecture Publication. The iboss Zero Trust SSE incorporates and delivers the capabilities defined within the NIST 800-207 to ensure all applications, data and services are completely inaccessible by attackers with continuous real-time and dynamic access being granted to users using advanced Trust Algorithms. Risk is assessed on each and every access, beyond authentication, to ensure every transaction to protected and valuable resources is authorized and approved. Scoring is dynamically applied to each resource request to increase confidence when authorizing users and devices to access resources.
A Single Unified Global Zero Trust SSE Ensures Consistent Visibility and Protection
Unlike legacy cloud competitors which separate “Private Access” from “Internet Access”, iboss uses a single Zero Trust SSE to protect all resources equally regardless of whether they are on-prem or in the cloud. With iboss, ALL resources are Private, meaning applications, data and services owned and protected by the organization are NEVER accessible without being authorized by the iboss Zero Trust SSE.
Unlike competitors that do not inspect content to on-prem destinations via their “Private Access” service, iboss inspects ALL data and application content regardless of resource location, including resources residing on-prem.
Visibility via logging and reporting is also consistent as all transactions to protected resources must traverse the iboss Zero Trust SSE. Once resources are connected to iboss Zero Trust SSE, any user connected to the edge will have access to all of their approved resources regardless of where they connect. This provides the best end-user experience, increased productivity and eliminates the hassle of enabling and disabling VPNs to gain access to the applications needed to be productive.
iboss Makes ALL Resources Private
Properly implementing Zero Trust involves ensuring that protected applications, data and services cannot be accessed without going through the Zero Trust security edge.
The “zone” between the Zero Trust security service edge Policy Enforcement Point and the protected resource is referred to as the “Implicit Trust Zone” within the NIST 800-207 Zero Trust Architecture Publication. The only connection traffic the protected resource should ever accept is traffic from the Policy Enforcement Point within Zero Trust service. This is very difficult to do for SaaS and cloud applications as the front-door to these applications is typically publicly visible which violates the basic principals of Zero Trust.
Because iboss is built on a containerized cloud architecture, the iboss Zero Trust service allows normally publicly visible SaaS applications to be locked down and made completely private. This is possible because iboss Policy Enforcement Points use IP space that only source traffic from the customer whos resources they are protecting. The protected cloud resources use ACLs to restrict traffic to the organization’s Policy Enforcement points ensuring direct access to SaaS applications is never allowed.
With alternative legacy cloud security architectures, Policy Enforcement Points generate traffic from multiple unrelated customers which make it impossible to lock protected cloud resources down from direct access. For example, a user within one organization creates a public share link to sensitive data within a cloud application, any other customer using the legacy cloud security service will be able to access that data. With iboss, only approved and trusted users will be able to access the data represented by the public share link providing instant-zero protection for sensitive cloud data.
Adaptive Access Based on Trust Algorithms Prevent Breaches and Data Loss
The NIST 800-207 Zero Trust Architecture Publication outlines Trust Algorithms which are needed to increase decision confidence when the Zero Trust service grants or denies access to a protected resource. The iboss platform provides criteria-based and score-based algorithms to ensure the Policy Enforcement Points make adaptive and intelligent decisions when granting or denying access to protected resources.
Criteria-based algorithms dynamically allow users access while automatically denying others. Criteria can include combining specific users, groups, OUs, and geos. The score-based algorithm is adaptive and evaluates the user, asset and resource to produce a real-time confidence score for each and a combined overall confidence score for the transaction. The scoring algorithm can deny access if the user, asset or resource score is too low, or automatically deny if any variable within the scoring algorithm is not met. For example, regardless of whether a user is authenticated with multi-factor, the iboss Zero Trust service can deny the user from accessing the resource if the device being used is infected or is missing critical patches.
Trust Algorithms and Trust Scoring Prevent Breaches and Data Loss
The NIST 800-207 Zero Trust Architecture Publication outlines Trust Algorithms which are needed to increase decision confidence when the Zero Trust service grants or denies access to a protected resource. The iboss platform provides criteria-based and score-based algorithms to ensure the Policy Enforcement Points make adaptive and intelligent decisions when granting or denying access to protected resources.
IPv6 Support to Ensure Users Can Connect from Anywhere
IPv6 is quickly becoming the dominant connection protocol used globally as the IPv4 address space is completely exhausted. Unlike competitors that do not support IPv6 through the proxy Policy Enforcement Points, the iboss Zero Trust SSE completely supports IPv6 throughout the service to ensure users can connect from any location and through any Internet provider.
The NIST 800-207 Zero Trust Architecture states that IPv6 is a factor to consider when identifying candidate solutions (NIST SP 800-207 Page 40). With IPv6 support already native within the iboss Zero Trust service, end users will not be impacted as the global Internet transitions from IPv4 to IPv6.
Seamlessly Extend iboss Zero Trust SSE Policy Enforcement Points into any Datacenter, On-prem or Cloud Based
An Elastic Zero Trust SSE Ensures Seamless Hybrid Protection
The iboss Zero Trust SSE uses a containerized edge which allows the data plane of the service to extend on-prem into the customer data center. This is an extension of the global security edge and allows protection of on-prem resources with the same CASB, Malware Defense and Data Loss Prevention capabilities even though those transaction may traverse private cloud Policy Enforcement Points.
This includes protected resources that never leave the datacenter and should not traverse the public Internet directly or via a tunnel (such as IPSec or GRE tunnels). The NIST 800-207 Zero Trust Architecture Publication states that candidate solutions should “work where the business process resources exist entirely on enterprise premises” (NIST 800-207 Page 40). With iboss, the containerized Policy Enforcement Points can natively stretch into the datacenter to support internal traffic or other traffic locally. This is unlike competitors who struggle with a native hybrid experience and cannot meet this requirement of supporting local Policy Enforcement Points with the same protection as those within the global cloud security fabric.
