Find out why switchless fabrics are inherently more secure than traditional networks.
WHITEPAPER
Direct Interconnect Network Security: Improving Security in Computing Clusters
Learn how by removing switches, direct-interconnect networks reduce the risk, cost, and administrative burden inherent in spine-and-leaf, switch-based architecture.
In this white paper, you'll learn about:
- How switch-based networks offer bad actors multiple attack surfaces to exploit
- By eliminating switches, direct-interconnect networks inherently reduce the number of attack surfaces
- Direct-interconnect networks also lower the cost and complexity of maintaining the assurance of local computing resources
- By eliminating risks in the local network, more resources can be dedicated to host security

Don't just take our word for it

By reducing the attack surface of local area networks by approximately 87%, the Rockport fabric reduces the cost and complexity of maintaining the assurance of local computing resources and clusters.
