Case Study: IXOM achieves secure, Zero Trust segmentation across cloud, data center and legacy applications with Illumio

Ixom Achieves Secure Segmentation Across Environments with Illumio

Ixom, a Melbourne-based industrial chemical manufacturer with global cloud and on-prem environments, needed to secure critical infrastructure and legacy/brownfield applications that rely on unsupported platforms while moving to SD‑WAN and adopting a Zero Trust model. Manual whitelisting and fragmented visibility made governing cloud and legacy systems untenable and increased exposure to vulnerabilities.

Ixom deployed Illumio’s SaaS Adaptive Security Platform, installing agents in two days to ringfence vulnerable apps, model policies safely, and gain a real-time application dependency map across data center, cloud and legacy systems. The result was granular Zero Trust segmentation that prevents unauthorized access, reduces risk and administrative burden, and enables future SIEM and CMDB integrations.
