Hardware segmentation: Hardware segmentation is the practice of dividing a network into physically separate segments, each with dedicated hardware such as switches and routers. This approach can enhance security by containing threats within a segment and preventing unauthorized access across different parts of the network. It is particularly useful for protecting high-value assets within an organization.
