How Isolation Fixed a School’s Ransomware Problem

In a recent case study, a school faced a double ransomware attack, paying twice to regain access to its systems. Even after restoring their systems, they were hit again, revealing a critical vulnerability. Ericsson's isolation technology was then implemented, which quickly identified the root cause: a teacher unknowingly downloaded an infected file from a cloud storage service. With Ericsson's solution, the school could effectively prevent such threats through advanced antivirus checks and content disarm and reconstruction within an isolated cloud environment. This case underscores the importance of isolating cloud connections to safeguard against malicious files.

Safeguarding Users from Web-Borne Threats with NetCloud SASE

Traditional Secure Web Gateway (SWG) technologies predominantly rely on signature-based detection methods to identify known threats. However, this approach is increasingly inadequate for addressing the complexities of modern cyber threats, such as advanced zero-day exploits and sophisticated phishing attacks. These evolving risks, including browser-based exploits like ransomware, phishing attempts, credential theft, and the download of malicious documents, often bypass detection-based tools.

To enhance protection, organizations should adopt a prevention-based strategy centered on isolation. This method involves rendering websites in a secure cloud environment and streaming content to users, thereby significantly reducing the risk of infection. Users can be provided with either full or restricted access to web content, with all downloads sanitized to prevent malware from entering the network. Our solution includes straightforward, pre-configured policies that can be tailored to your organization’s specific risk management needs, ensuring comprehensive and advanced web security. Safe sites are allowed. Malicious sites are blocked. Risky or unknown sites are isolated. Downloads are sanitized. Phishing sites are accessed in read-only mode.



VPN & Private APN Replacement with Zero Trust Architecture

This hands-on demo of Ericsson's NetCloud solution provides an in-depth discussion of VPNs and Private APNs. Private Access Point Names (APNs) are used to establish secure cellular networks, while Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) safeguard communications over untrusted connections. NetCloud Manager streamlines the process of adding new sites and creating access policies, fully aligned with zero-trust security principles. The solution includes overlay-NAT’ed addresses, which help resolve overlapping IP address conflicts. Cradlepoint's Secure Connect feature enhances simplicity, scalability, and security by unifying network security with advanced web filtering options under a single policy framework. Hosts Peter Silva and Joe Wagner, Senior Product Manager for Security lead this session.

Three Ways to ZTNA

This Ericsson Enterprise Wireless demo showcases four distinct connectivity solutions within the NetCloud platform: branch connectivity, remote user access, enterprise hybrid remote work, and untrusted third-party access. We also emphasize three approaches to Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), including both client-based and clientless ZTNA options. The video highlights Ericsson’s NetCloud Exchange and #NetCloud #SASE #ZTNA solutions, making it particularly relevant for network engineers, sysadmins, and remote access managers. Peter Silva and Lead Product Manager for Security Daniel Scarberry are your hosts.
