Edgewise Networks is a computer and network security company based in Burlington, Massachusetts, founded in 2016. It aims to prevent data breaches and application compromise by stopping attackers from moving laterally through unsegmented networks. Traditional microsegmentation, which relies on VLANs, firewalls, and ACLs, is described as resource-intensive and hard to manage; Edgewise promotes an alternative approach that uses machine learning to enable simple, automatic segmentation across cloud, container, and on-premises environments. Its offerings center on identity-based protection that reveals attack paths and enables risk reduction without requiring changes to existing network architecture. Edgewise positions itself within the computer and network security sector as a provider of practical, scalable zero-trust microsegmentation for modern workloads. A concrete recent development is the June 2019 platform launch, described as simplifying zero-trust environments with a one-click approach to microsegmentation.
