Direction of Traffic Flow:

North-South traffic refers to data that flows ‘externally’, from an organizations private network through an Internet gateway.

East-West traffic refers to data that flows ‘internally’, within and inside an organization’s private network.

Security Emphasis:

For North-South traffic, cybersecurity measures focus on ‘external’, perimeter security used to protect the network.

East-West traffic, cybersecurity measures focus on ‘internal’ security: monitoring, detecting, and responding to unauthorized lateral movement ‘within’ the network.

Business Risk:

A successful cyber attack on North-South traffic can have far-reaching consequences, affecting external clients, partners, and the reputation of the organization.

A successful cyber attack on East-West traffic can compromise sensitive information, interrupt critical services, and execute targeted attacks from within the organization.

Impact of Security Breach:

Via a brief whiteboarding session, our Professional Services Network Assessments will provide you with the detailed understanding of these differences and how it allows us, as cybersecurity professionals to quickly recommend and remediate security measures to better protect your organization’s network and data.
