Next generation network identity brings simplicity at cloud scale to the enterprise
SANTA CLARA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Arista Networks (NYSE:ANET), a leading provider of cloud networking solutions, today announced at the RSA Conference (Booth #1443) a cloud-delivered, AI-driven network identity service for enterprise security and IT operations. Based on Arista�s flagship CloudVision? platform, Arista Guardian for Network Identity (CV AGNI) expands Aristas zero trust networking approach to enterprise security. CV AGNI helps to secure IT operations with simplified deployment and cloud scale for all enterprise network users, their associated endpoints, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices.
“Proliferation of IoT devices in the healthcare network creates a huge management and security challenge for our IT and security operations. The ease of securely onboarding devices on the network by CV AGNI and its integration with Medigate by Claroty for device profiling greatly simplifies this problem for a healthcare network, said Aaron Miri, CIO of Baptist Healthcare.
AI-Driven Network Identity brings Simplicity and Security at Scale
While enterprise networks have seen massive transformation in recent years with the adoption of cloud and the acceleration of a post-pandemic, perimeter-less enterprise, Network Access Control (NAC) solutions have changed little for decades. Traditional NAC solutions continue to suffer from the complexity of on-premises deployment and administration and have been unable to adapt to the explosion of SaaS-based identity stores, users, devices and their associated profiles across the enterprise.
CloudVision AGNI takes a novel approach to enterprise network identity management. Built on a modern, cloud-native microservices architecture, the CV AGNI solution leverages AI/ML to greatly simplify the secure onboarding and troubleshooting for users and devices and the management of ever-expanding security policies.
CV AGNI is based on Aristas foundational NetDL architecture and leverages AVA (Autonomous Virtual Assist) for a conversational interface that removes the complexity inherent in managing network identity from a traditional legacy NAC solution. AVA codifies real-world network and security operations expertise and leverages supervised and unsupervised ML models into an Ask AVA service, a chat-like interface for configuring, troubleshooting and analyzing enterprise security policies and device onboarding. CV AGNI also adds user context into Aristas network data lake (NetDL), greatly simplifying the integration of device and user information across Aristas products and third-party systems.
CloudVision AGNI delivers key attributes from client to cloud across the cognitive enterprise:
CloudVision Delivers Network Identity as-a-Service
