Portugal’s New Cybersecurity Standard: MSSP, Zero Trust & Microsegmentation

Cyber threats in Portugal are growing more complex, while most companies still lack the resources to keep up. Firewalls and antivirus alone don’t cut it anymore—especially with hybrid work, cloud systems, and stricter regulations like NIS2. That’s why many businesses are turning to MSSPs (Managed Security Service Providers) for expert support, 24/7 monitoring, and scalable protection without heavy in-house investment.

Key to this shift are two concepts: Zero Trust and microsegmentation. Zero Trust means no one is trusted by default—not even inside the network. Microsegmentation then helps stop lateral attacks by isolating critical systems. Solutions like Zero Networks make this easier than ever, with fast, agentless deployment and real-time risk reduction.

Companies working with MSSPs like Exclusive Networks gain more than tech—they get strategy, support, and security that evolves with their business.
