About Illumio ASP
Illumio Adaptive Security Platform (ASP), now part of the Illumio Segmentation product line, is a Zero Trust microsegmentation solution that visualizes application traffic and applies fine-grained security policy across bare-metal servers, VMs, containers, and cloud workloads. It is designed to contain breaches and stop lateral movement of ransomware across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Industry-leading microsegmentation with strong analyst recognition (Forrester Wave Leader, Gartner Customers' Choice)
- Detailed real-time application dependency mapping makes Zero Trust policy design tractable
- Consistent policy model across bare-metal, VMs, containers, and multi-cloud workloads
- Adaptive enforcement keeps policy in sync as workloads scale or move
- Effective at containing ransomware and lateral attack movement
Key Features
Application Dependency Map
Real-time visualization of traffic flows between workloads, processes, and applications across data centers and clouds.
Microsegmentation Policy Engine
Define and enforce allow-list segmentation policy down to the individual workload, process, or port.
Nano-Segmentation
Process-level isolation for fine-grained control over which services on a single host can communicate.
Adaptive Policy Enforcement
Automatically updates segmentation rules as workloads scale, move, or change without manual reconfiguration.
Container & Kubernetes Support
Consistent segmentation across Kubernetes, OpenShift, and traditional non-container environments.
Hybrid and Multi-Cloud Coverage
Works across AWS, Azure, GCP, private data centers, and bare-metal in a single policy model.
AI-Powered Policy Recommendations
Generates suggested segmentation rules based on observed application behavior and Zero Trust principles.

Best For
Ransomware containment
Stop ransomware and other threats from spreading laterally between workloads in data centers and cloud.
Zero Trust segmentation
Implement least-privilege network policy across hybrid environments without rearchitecting the network.
Regulatory compliance scoping
Isolate PCI, HIPAA, or SOX-regulated workloads to reduce audit scope and demonstrate controls.
Cloud migration security
Maintain consistent segmentation policy as workloads move between on-premises and public cloud.
