Qingteng Lingyu is a microsegmentation platform designed to control east-west traffic within hybrid data center environments, including public cloud, private cloud, hybrid cloud, physical machines, virtual machines, and containers. The platform consists of three components: an Agent that collects network connection and asset information in real time and manages the host firewall, a computing engine that aggregates and visualizes network connections and generates policies based on business traffic, and a console for centralized policy management and isolation operations. The platform automatically learns business access relationships and displays them through visual topology maps, supporting interactive policy creation directly on the topology. It supports policy management at various granularities, including business groups, tags, ports, and IP addresses, and can adapt policies automatically as business or environment conditions change. It includes a policy validation function that monitors and verifies policy accuracy and coverage without actually blocking traffic. In the event of a real security incident, the platform can quickly isolate compromised hosts to block lateral movement across the network. A single agent integrates microsegmentation, host security, and container security capabilities, enabling unified cross-platform security management.</description> <parameter name="summary">Microsegmentation platform for visualizing and controlling east-west traffic to stop lateral movement
