Zero-trust Testing: A Brave New World for Distributed Networks

Traditional cloud networks have evolved into a distributed cloud environment where users and applications can access resources in any cloud—private, public or hybrid.

Distributed cloud and hybrid networks have advanced traffic patterns, complex application mixes, and no defined perimeter to defend. Such dynamic environments demand a new zero-trust approach to security based on identity not perimeter where nothing is trusted, and everything is authenticated. But testing infrastructure deployed in distributed zero-trust networks requires a complete paradigm shift. Yesterday’s test tools simply won’t work in today’s modern networks.

Keysight introduces CyPerf 2.0, the world’s first instantly scalable zero-trust network test solution. CyPerf delivers new heights in realism, creating a digital twin of users, applications and threats. Highly scalable, it supports millions of concurrent users and millions of connections per second. Lightweight agents are deployed as containerized pods in various deployments including bare metal, VM, containers, and Cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure, Kubernetes, IBM, OpenStack and others). CyPerf supports testing pre-deployment in a lab and across live production networks. Register now to learn how CyPerf can help take your network testing to new levels.
