Illumio specializes in cybersecurity solutions, focusing on protecting large enterprises and organizations from cyber threats. Its main product, the Adaptive Security Platform (ASP), offers visibility, security, and encryption for enterprise networks. The platform uses a method called micro-segmentation, which divides networks into smaller sections to limit the spread of potential breaches. This means that if one part of the network is attacked, the rest can remain secure. Illumio operates on a subscription-based model, allowing clients to access their services continuously while ensuring regular updates and improvements. The company stands out from competitors due to its focus on adaptive security and its partnerships with leading technology firms. Illumio's goal is to provide effective protection for data centers and cloud environments, helping businesses maintain their security against evolving cyber threats.
