CISO • SEGMENTATION
Micro‑Segmentation Health
Summarizes zone security status (DMZ, Corporate, OT Production, SCADA, External Partners) and flags weak boundaries.
What it shows
Segmentation Health shows whether zones/conduits are enforced the way your reference architecture intends. It is critical for limiting lateral movement in OT and hybrid environments.
How it’s calculated
- Zone inventory derived from network topology + asset attribution.
- Policy compliance based on observed flows versus allowed conduits.
- Health states (Healthy/Warning/Critical) computed from violations, exceptions, and exposure.
What to do next
- 1Fix Critical zones first—especially those that bridge OT and Corporate networks.
- 2Review conduitsand remove any “any/any” rules or legacy flat networks.
- 3Stage enforcementto avoid operational disruption (monitor → alert → block).
- 4Prove effectivenessby showing reduced cross-zone policy deviations over time.

Why this matters to a CISO
AI only works if it’s trustworthy
If models drift or confidence drops, you’re flying blind. This keeps the AI layer honest.
Drift is normal in OT
New firmware, new shifts, new processes—all cause drift. You need to detect it early before it erodes detection quality.
Confidence drives automation
You can’t let AI auto-contain based on shaky confidence. This metric ensures automation stays aligned with risk appetite.
Feedback loops improve accuracy
Every analyst decision sharpens the models. This closes the loop between human intelligence and machine learning.
