RS.MI-01.342

Does your organization automatically transfer compromised endpoints to a remediation VLAN for isolation and remediation?

Explanation

Automatically moving compromised endpoints to a separate remediation VLAN helps contain potential security incidents by isolating the affected device from the rest of the network. This prevents lateral movement by attackers and limits the spread of malware while allowing security teams to safely investigate and remediate the issue without disrupting normal network operations. The system should be able to identify compromised endpoints through security monitoring tools and automatically trigger the VLAN transfer without manual intervention. Evidence could include network architecture diagrams showing the remediation VLAN configuration, documentation of the automated detection and transfer process, logs demonstrating successful isolation of compromised endpoints, and screenshots of the network access control system that enforces the VLAN transfers.

Implementation Example

Automatically transfer compromised endpoints to a remediation virtual local area network (VLAN)

ResponseHub is the product I wish I had when I was a CTO

Previously I was co-founder and CTO of Progression, a VC backed HR-tech startup used by some of the biggest names in tech.

As our sales grew, security questionnaires quickly became one of my biggest pain-points. They were confusing, hard to delegate and arrived like London busses - 3 at a time!

I'm building ResponseHub so that other teams don't have to go through this. Leave the security questionnaires to us so you can get back to closing deals, shipping product and building your team.
