Automated, agentless identity segmentation that restricts admin and service account logons to only what’s operationally needed, enhanced with MFA to block lateral movement and credential‑based attacks.

Zero Networks’ Identity Segmentation introduces fine‑grained, least‑privilege controls over privileged and service accounts by learning real logon behavior for 30 days and then automatically enforcing precise policies without endpoint agents. The solution revokes broad logon rights and provisions access based on actual necessity, requiring MFA for privileged logons and denying all non‑approved access paths by default. By enforcing per‑asset and per‑logon‑type restrictions, it mitigates threats such as Pass‑the‑Ticket, Golden Ticket, and Kerberoasting while simplifying compliance and cyber‑insurance readiness through strong visibility and auditability. Delivered as part of Zero Networks’ unified zero‑trust platform, it complements network microsegmentation and secure remote access to contain ransomware and prevent lateral movement across hybrid environments. Key Features & Benefits:
- Service account discovery & visibility: Identifies usage patterns, highlights inactive accounts, and builds deterministic policies from real behavior.
- Auto‑restrict service account logons: Limits accounts to necessary assets and logon types to block unauthorized access and lateral movement.
- MFA on privileged logons: Requires MFA and restricts admin logons to pre‑approved assets; all other logon rights are blocked by default.
- 30‑day learning, automated enforcement: Learns logon activities for 30 days, then automatically segments identities with agentless controls.
- Credential‑theft attack mitigation: Helps prevent Pass‑the‑Ticket, Golden Ticket, and Kerberoasting by enforcing least‑privilege, MFA‑backed policies.
- PAM augmentation & Tiered Model alternative: Extends granular controls without the cost/complexity of traditional vaulting or tiering approaches.
- Compliance & insurance readiness: Centralized visibility, strict control over privileged/service accounts, and MFA support regulatory and insurer demands.
- Unified zero‑trust platform: Pairs with microsegmentation and secure access to reduce blast radius and stop ransomware spread
