Cloud Security & Network Convergence Strengthens Attack Response
When network and security operate as separate functions with separate tools, attack response slows down at every handoff. At RSA Conference, John Grady, principal analyst at TechTarget's Enterprise Strategy Group, sat down with Aviatrix CEO Doug Merritt to explore why the convergence of cloud networking and security is not just an architectural preference but a meaningful improvement in how enterprises detect, respond to, and contain attacks. This is a conversation worth watching for anyone thinking about where cloud security needs to go next.
What you'll hear in the video
Why network and security convergence changes the speed and effectiveness of attack response in cloud environments, not just the operational model
How keeping networking and security separate creates the gaps and blind spots that attackers exploit after initial access
What the path to convergence looks like in practice for enterprise organizations, and where most teams are in that journey today
Doug Merritt's perspective on where cloud network security is heading and what Aviatrix's role is in accelerating that shift

The Containment Era — Why the Threat Model Outgrew the Architecture
The Cascade attack of March 2026 proved what security leaders suspected: detection-first architecture can no longer keep pace with threats that move through trusted channels. This whitepaper examines the Architectural Divide, the growing gap between cloud workload deployment and security enforcement, and explains why blast radius has become the metric that matters most. Download to understand the structural shift your security strategy needs to address.

Aviatrix Breach Lock: Rapid Response Program for Cloud Data Exfiltration
When attackers gain a foothold in your cloud environment, data exfiltration can begin within seconds. Long before your DFIR team has established situational awareness, sensitive data is already moving. CNAPPs surface posture issues. EDR protects endpoints. SASE secures the perimeter. None of them stop workload-driven cloud egress during an active incident. Aviatrix Breach Lock is a free rapid response program that gives organizations immediate visibility, workload-level attribution, and cloud native egress containment during an active or suspected breach, with no agents, no downtime, and no architecture changes.

Hybrid and multicloud network environments are complex; protecting yourself against ransomware isn’t as simple as identifying a couple of gaps and patching them up. You need a systemic, defense-in-depth strategy to blanket your environment with protection against ransomware. This checklist helps you get started, with real-world guidance including enforcing zero trust segmentation, centralizing policy management and visibility, and implementing always-on risk scoring.

This piece explores security for AI protection and AI for security enhancements, outlining how organizations can protect their AI systems effectively.
The Current Cloud Network Security Landscape
The cloud security market is growing fast. The breaches are growing faster. Multicloud is the norm, AI is expanding attack surfaces exponentially, and the tools most organizations rely on were built for environments that no longer exist. This whitepaper cuts through the noise, using Google's $40 billion in security acquisitions as a lens to understand where the market is heading, what the most sophisticated organizations are prioritizing, and what the gap between a static security blueprint and runtime reality is actually costing enterprises today.
Why The Security Of Your Cloud Perimeter Could Be At Risk
Cloud-native NAT gateways are easy to spin up and easy to overlook as a security risk. But if your cloud perimeter security depends on them, you are likely overpaying and underprotected at the same time. Data egress charges alone account for 10 to 15% of cloud bills, and the security obfuscation NAT provides is nowhere near enough to stop modern attack methods. This whitepaper is for cloud and security teams who want to fix both problems without adding more complexity to an environment that is already hard enough to manage.
