Networks that Simplify Your Zero Trust Journey See More | Know More | Protect More Based on NIST 800-207, Arista's zero trust networking principles help customers address this challenge with three cornerstones: visibility, continuous diagnostics, and enforcement. To deliver continuous diagnostics, the Arista NDR platform processes countless points of data in seconds, detects abnormalities or threats, and instantly reacts to them, as explained in this whitepaper.

Defenders can see and respond to threats more effectively as they learn to recognize malicious intent. Learn more about Arista N D R here.

T he Arista NDR platform goes beyond just flagging every anomaly as a threat and recognizes that not every anomaly is malicious and not every malicious

activity is anomalous. Arista NDR hunts for additional context and stitches multiple weak signals together to identify end-to-end attacks.

How can an organization accelerate Zero Trust Maturity? The network can help drive zero trust security, regardless of which device, application, or user

accesses it.

At Arista, we believe zero trust begins with the network.Observability, threat detection, and access control can be transparently enabled due to the network's pervasiveness.

This compensates for legacy devices, workloads, and data stores that are not easily "ZTfied," buying time to address deeper challenges in these other domains. No matter how or where the devices are installed, the network can authenticate and authorize them regardless of whether they are managed or unmanaged.

Compared with devices, workloads, users, data, etc., networks are much more homogeneous, eliminating the complexity of different operating systems or applications server software. A zero-trust networking architecture can integrate with complementary solutions like endpoint detection and response and SaaS applications to cover blind

spots beyond the traditional network. Download this whitepaper to learn more.

Arista Zero Trust for the Cognitive Campus Arista's zero trust campus solution integrates AVA NDR sensors into switches, offering deep packet inspection for enhanced security analytics within the campus network.

Unlike traditional NetFlow-based solutions, Arista AVA sensors analyze complete packets for various protocols, providing richer data sent to the NDR nucleus for further examination. 4

How does Arista Eliminate Friction for Network and Security Teams? Arista’s innovative security products eliminate friction for both network and security teams by baking security into the network.

W atch video

Arista can cut down on silos between and within networks and security teams by using the underlying switching infrastructure as security sensors instead of requiring overlay networks. This avoids the need for complicated hardware and

tapping infrastructure, especially in campus locations where expertise and rackspace are limited. With this approach Arista delivers rich device, application, and security context to both network and security professionals via Arista CloudVision and Arista NDR while also providing 24/7 access to human experts with decades of experience in network ops, network security, threat hunting, and

incident response. Learn more here

C A S E STU D Y:

Spear Phishing Detection and Intelligent R esponse

A small group of employees at a petroleum refining giant were targeted by a sophisticated spear-phishing campaign to steal credentials to access critical information and applications.

The targeted nature of spear phishing makes it especially dangerous because, most often, an organization does not become aware of compromised credentials until bad actors are already using them. This is because the people being “phished” willfully click on malicious links or provide credentials to attackers who

have become exceedingly adept at spoofing emails to look legitimate. Download the case study to see how Arista N D R detected this threat
