# Implementing Microsegmentation with Guardicore
## When to Use
- When implementing east-west traffic controls to prevent lateral movement within data centers
- When needing application-level visibility into network communication patterns before writing segmentation policies
- When segmenting workloads across heterogeneous environments (VMs, containers, bare metal, cloud)
- When compliance frameworks (PCI DSS, HIPAA) require network segmentation validation
- When deploying zero trust at the network layer with process-level granularity
**Do not use** for perimeter-only security (use traditional firewalls), for environments with fewer than 50 workloads where VLANs/security groups suffice, or when network team lacks capacity for ongoing policy management.
