Cloud Expo Silicon Valley $800 Savings here!

The massive transformation of IT, driven by virtualization and cloud computing initiatives, is compelling a rethink of the way enterprises protect their critical assets. The most critical resources are typically the applications and their data, plus their supporting systems, i.e., servers, storage and databases. Good security design employs a defensive in-depth approach to protect these resources from unauthorized user access and attacks.

"All-virtual" and cloud architectures open the door for discontinuous innovation resulting in better security/compliance than was earlier possible, leveraging virtualization attributes such as introspection, instant insertion/layering, distributable enforcement, and policies that migrate with the workload. Ultimately, virtualization's greatest benefit is encapsulation and un-tethering processing from the hardware, leaving the door open to migrate workloads and their dependencies to the cloud in an agile fashion.

In his session at the 7th International Cloud Expo, Allwyn Sequeira, CTO, Security & Network Solutions, at VMware, will discuss these topics, and highlight new security/compliance architectures for virtual datacenters, virtual desktop infrastructure, and new application frameworks.
