Introduces new tech previews that will help transform the way customers consume networking and security across cloud environments

SAN FRANCISCO — VMware Explore 2022 – VMware Inc. (NYSE: VMW) today announced new innovations across its expanding networking and security portfolio that will help customers embrace the cloud operating model. These new innovations include:

“Enterprises are facing an unprecedented level of threat and complexity as they operate in today’s multi-cloud world,” said Tom Gillis, senior vice president and general manager of VMware’s Networking and Advanced Security business group. “VMware is radically transforming how our customers consume networking and security – allowing them to realize the agility and efficiencies of the cloud operating model through a cloud-smart approach. With a privileged position in the infrastructure and a scale out distributed software architecture, we’re able to leverage the intrinsic attributes of our platforms and deliver these unique solutions in a consumption-oriented manner.”

Simplifying Networking and Security for Multi-Cloud

In <a href="https://blogs.vmware.com/networkvirtualization/2022/08/announcing-project-northstar.html/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Project </a><a href="https://blogs.vmware.com/networkvirtualization/2022/08/announcing-project-northstar.html/">Northstar</a>, VMware announces a major advancement of its NSX platform. Announced in technology preview today, Project Northstar will transform how enterprises consume networking and security in a multi-cloud world. Project Northstar will deliver multi-cloud networking, security, workload mobility and end-to-end threat detection and response with a centralized cloud-console for consistent and simplified software-as-a-service (SaaS) consumption. This family of services includes network & security policy management, network detection and response (NDR), network visibility and analytics (NSX Intelligence), advanced load balancing (ALB), and workload mobility (HCX) for private cloud environments and VMware Cloud deployments.

“As an innovator in software-defined networking, VMware offers a full-stack of networking and security services in an integrated solution that benefits thousands of enterprise customers today,” said Umesh Mahajan, senior vice president and general manager for VMware’s Networking and Security business unit. “Customers are seeking a uniform policy model across multi-cloud deployments, along with consistent network connectivity, security, and load balancing services. With Project Northstar we continue to shape how enterprises consume networking and security in a multi-cloud world.”

Today, with the latest update to VMware NSX 4.0 and VMware vSphere 8, <a href="https://blogs.vmware.com/networkvirtualization/2022/08/announcing-dpu-based-acceleration-for-nsx.html/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NSX networking and security functions can now be implemented on Data Processing Units</a> (DPUs, also known as SmartNICs) connected to the host hypervisor. Offloading NSX services to the DPU can accelerate networking and security functions without impacting the host CPUs, addressing the needs of modern applications and other network-intensive and latency-sensitive applications.

Strengthening Lateral Security <a></a><a></a>

The growth in laterally moving threats requires security teams to pay closer attention to east-west network traffic. Examining traffic through network taps is no longer sufficient. Modern distributed cloud architectures can further exacerbate blind spots. VMware’s architecture allows customers see processes running in an endpoint, packets crossing the network, access points, and the inner workings of both traditional and modern apps to identify and stop threats others can’t. As part of today's announcements, VMware is strengthening its lateral security capabilities by embedding network detection and visibility into Carbon Black Cloud's endpoint protection platform, which is now available to select customers in early access. This extended detection and response (XDR) telemetry adds network detection and visibility to endpoints with no changes to infrastructure or endpoints, providing customers with extended visibility into their environment across endpoints and networks leaving attackers nowhere to hide.

Limited visibility into the east-west traffic between microservices also puts modern applications at greater risk. Project Trinidad, which is in tech preview, extends VMware's API security and analytics by deploying sensors on Kubernetes clusters and uses machine learning with business logic inference to detect anomalous behavior in east-west traffic between microservices.

Findings from VMware’s recent <a href="https://news.vmware.com/releases/vmware-report-warns-of-deepfake-attacks-and-cyber-extortion">Global Incident Response Threat </a><a href="https://news.vmware.com/releases/vmware-report-warns-of-deepfake-attacks-and-cyber-extortion" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Report</a> reveal that ransomware actors continue to evolve their cyber extortion strategies. Ransomware will continue to be a business reality, and VMware uniquely makes recovery from an attack faster, more predictable, and less prone to error with <a href="https://blogs.vmware.com/virtualblocks/2022/08/30/the-need-for-ransomware-recovery-as-a-service-introducing-vmware-ransomware-recovery/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">VMware Ransomware Recovery for VMware Cloud DR</a>, a new offering unveiled at VMware Explore. This new, purpose-built ransomware recovery-as-a-service solution enables safe recovery that prevents re-infection of IT and line-of-business production workloads through its innovative use of an on-demand isolated recovery environment on VMware Cloud on AWS. Guided recovery workflows allow customers to quickly identify recovery point candidates, validate restore points using embedded behavioral analysis, and recover data with minimal loss.

Expanding Security for the Data Center and Cloud Edge

Last year, VMware announced the industry-first elastic application security edge (EASE) which enables the networking and security infrastructure at the data center or cloud edge to flex and adjust as app needs change. To help customers preserve their investments in expensive hardware appliances that are incapable of adapting to changing app environments, VMware is introducing:

Securing the Edge for the Distributed Workforce

In the past two years, enterprise customers have fundamentally changed how they build and deploy networks and access to support distributed workers. The market for secure access service edge (SASE) solutions is expected to nearly triple by 2026 with security being a key driver of growth as enterprises strategically invest for the new age of distributed applications and hybrid work, according to the Dell'Oro Group1. A leader in SD-WAN2, VMware is now offering additional deployment flexibility to customers who want a multi-phase journey from their current network and endpoint management solutions to a next-generation SASE offering by adding new web proxy-based connectivity to VMware Cloud Web Security.

VMware Edge Portfolio Will Enable Organizations to Run, Manage and Better Secure Apps Across Near and Far Edge Locations

PALO ALTO, Calif. October 5, 2021-- VMworld 2021 -- Organizations are distributing workloads across multiple clouds while simultaneously extending out to the edge—pushing apps and services closer to where people, data and things connect to the networked digital world. Today at VMworld 2021, VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW) outlined how it is helping customers make sense of a more complex, multi-cloud environment and unveiled its vision for how it will help customers navigate the shift to the edge. It also introduced VMware Edge, a product portfolio that will enable organizations to run, manage and better secure edge-native apps across multiple clouds, anywhere.

“A new type of workload is emerging—edge-native apps—that must run at the edge to perform as intended. AR/VR, connected vehicles and immersive gaming are becoming mainstream. 5G has made the use of collaborative robots, drone fleets and digital twins a reality,” said Sanjay Uppal, senior vice president and general manager, Service Provider and Edge, VMware. “VMware delivers a trusted foundation—a multi-cloud edge—to help organizations move forward in the new edge reality.”

VMware defines the edge as distributed digital infrastructure for running workloads across a multitude of locations, placed close to users and devices producing and consuming data. Where a workload is placed at the edge is key to meeting the requirements of edge-native apps. 

Edge-native apps require a multi-cloud edge. One that stitches together underlay services running on a service provider network (e.g., private connectivity, carrier 5G, network slicing) with overlay services delivered on top (e.g., SASE) and a compute services abstraction for the edge applications. All orchestrated by a management plane that provides consistent observability, installation, configuration, operations and management across all edge locations.

VMware delivers a trusted foundation – a multi-cloud edge – to help organizations move forward in the new edge reality.

VMware Edge brings together products from across VMware that will enable organizations to run, manage and better secure edge-native apps across multiple clouds at both near edge and far edge locations. VMware Edge solutions are purposefully designed for edge-native apps and their unique performance and latency requirements.

“Many transformational technologies—5G, SASE and open RAN, among others—are converging at the edge. Now is the time for organizations to establish a digital foundation for their edge infrastructure. With its leadership in multi-cloud and modern apps, VMware is uniquely positioned to deliver a comprehensive set of solutions that help its customers drive business continuity, agility and create competitive differentiation at the edge,” said Dave McCarthy, research vice president, cloud and edge infrastructure services, IDC.

VMware has key partnerships across the broad edge ecosystem to deliver seamlessly integrated solutions to customers. Its broad partner ecosystem spans public cloud providers, service providers, edge-native app developers, network services providers, system integrators, network equipment providers, near-edge hardware manufacturers, and far edge hardware manufacturers. 

For example, VMware Edge Compute Stack is integrated with the ruggedized Dell EMC VxRail D Series that is optimized for edge deployments. As the only HCI system co-engineered with VMware, Dell EMC VxRail provides an efficient and agile IT infrastructure that enables automated operations capable of stretching from data centers to cloud and edge environments. 

“The edge is rapidly becoming a more significant part of enterprise IT and is essential to customers’ data-driven transformations. The key to edge success is extending trusted and integrated infrastructure to the edge, so operational technologies can be efficiently deployed, managed and supported,” said Gil Shneorson, senior vice president, edge computing, Dell Technologies. “Working with partners like VMware, we help our customers tackle their edge deployments with products and solutions designed to be easily scaled and managed across a hybrid cloud, so customers can derive the most value from their data.”

Similarly, VMware Edge Compute Stack will be able to run on top of Lenovo’s ThinkSystem SE350 Edge Servers. The integrated solution, <a href="https://news.lenovo.com/pressroom/press-releases/new-innovation-for-resilient-edge-computing/">previously announced by Lenovo</a>, is ideal for remote sites that need to be able to process data closer to its creation and closer to users, including retail stores, manufacturing sites and schools, to name a few.

Charles Ferland, vice president and general manager, edge computing & telecom, Lenovo, said, “We are delighted to share a common vision on <a href="https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/data-center/solutions/edge-computing/">edge computing</a> with VMware, delivering value to customers. The VMware edge cloud platform is perfectly designed to deliver services where users need them, at the edge. Combined with Lenovo’s ruggedized and secure ThinkSystem SE350 server, our mutual customers can receive pre-loaded systems directly at their edge sites. The <a href="https://lenovopress.com/datasheet/ds0088-thinksystem-se350">ThinkSystem SE350</a> also includes a built-in networking switch module and WiFi/4G connectivity, eliminating the need for extra external networking equipment and providing increased network resiliency.”

From an operational technology (OT) standpoint, SmartHub.ai is focused on defining a software-defined IoT edge to help enterprises discover, onboard and manage IoT assets—from IoT devices to IoT applications. Its platform also helps integrate all data sources from the edge to enable decisions and actions based on edge-ML/AI models. The platform will integrate with VMware Edge to help provide a consistent and comprehensive view of near and far edge locations.

Niranjan Maka, co-founder and chief executive officer, SmartHub.ai, said, “Enterprises are driving many of their innovations to the edge to deliver new business and end-customer experiences. Interactions involve a complex edge ecosystem of IoT devices, applications, and data, closer to customers. In addition, low-latency applications and AI workloads at the edge are solving key challenges that would have not been possible before. Enabling the OT teams to manage edge infrastructure at scale is key to success. There is no other company better poised to seamlessly handle “edge-to-multi-cloud” workloads than VMware and its partner ecosystem.”

VMware Anywhere Workspace fast tracks holistic workplace transformation for a distributed environment, powering greater productivity, engagement and security for the anywhere workforce

SINGAPORE, April 21, 2021 – Leading organizations in Southeast Asia are embracing comprehensive workforce transformation to become anywhere enterprises that are more resilient, competitive, and well-positioned for growth in the region’s increasingly distributed environment. To support this, VMware (NYSE: VMW) is announcing VMware Anywhere Workspace, a holistic solution designed that enables the distributed workforce to work seamlessly and more securely anywhere to drive greater innovation and business outcomes in the new world of work.

As economies in Southeast Asia recover from the impact of the pandemic and gear up for growth in a new distributed environment, an estimated 50 million jobs<a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1">[1]</a> could switch to remote work over the next few years. This presents organizations with an opportunity to not only support remote work, but also take the lead in shaping the future of the Southeast Asian workforce to accelerate growth. With 78% of Southeast Asian consumers defining themselves as “digitally curious” or “digital explorers”<a href="#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2">[2]</a> who look forward to more digital experiences, the time is ripe for holistic workforce transformation that will enable organizations to conduct business in entirely new ways, guaranteeing continuous innovation, security and growth in a distributed future.

“Innovation, agility and resiliency have been key to the recovery of Southeast Asian businesses as they navigated the complexities of the pandemic environment the year before. With an eye on securing long term success and accelerating growth in the new world of work, businesses must re-think how their workforce can harness technology to better innovate and collaborate in this digital-first environment,” said Sanjay K. Deshmukh, vice president and managing director, Southeast Asia and Korea, VMware. “VMware is committed to enabling organizations to thrive as the future of work continues to evolve in Southeast Asia. VMware Anywhere Workspace will play a key role in helping organizations with this new way of working to create stronger, more focused, and more resilient businesses.”

Three enablers of success in the future of work

VMware Anywhere Workspace empowers today’s anywhere workforce with a holistic approach combining innovative digital workspace, endpoint security and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) technologies, working harmoniously across any application on any cloud to anywhere. This creates better experiences and more effective security with less cost and operational overhead.

VMware Anywhere Workspace sets the foundation and a vision for how to enable the future of work through three critical areas:

A holistic approach that powers the future of innovation in a distributed environment

VMware Anywhere Workspace brings together the benefits of three innovative solutions:

VMware Anywhere Workspace features integration points between the solutions, with more planned over time. For example:

AMTI is a technology solutions and systems provider based in the Philippines. Josefino Paloma, executive vice president and general manager for ICT Solutions and Geo-Expansions, said, “Our work-from-home program began two years ago to address the worsening traffic in metro Manila. COVID accelerated this initiative and Anywhere Workspace technologies enabled us to deliver a productive work environment for our employees. We will never go back to having everyone work from the office and Anywhere Workspace technologies will play a critical role in supporting a hybrid workforce.”

“A truly hybrid workforce is one that is enabled to work in any location, across any network and device, and with no trade-offs when it comes to employee productivity. However, delivering against this ideal has proven challenging for businesses that often rely on a complex set of legacy security practices and technologies,” said Adam Holtby, Principal Analyst, Omdia. “New security, management, and employee productivity solutions and practices are needed if businesses are to optimally enable and secure a more hybrid, anywhere workforce. This value proposition is at the core of VMware’s new solution, and it is one that has great potential to help the vendor become an important partner for businesses looking to embrace the Future of Work.”  

VMware software powers the world’s complex digital infrastructure. The company’s cloud, app modernization, networking, security, and digital workspace offerings help customers deliver any application on any cloud across any device.

SINGAPORE, September 30, 2020 – Today at <a href="https://www.vmworld.com/en/index.html">VMworld 2020</a>, VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW) unveiled Virtual Cloud Network innovations that help will customers create a modern network that better supports current and future business initiatives. With advancements across the VMware networking and security portfolio, customers will be able to more effectively manage the rapid shift to remote work, deliver traditional and modern applications faster and more securely, and reduce the cost and complexity of connecting and protecting the distributed enterprise.

Businesses today, and the IT and application development teams supporting them, are racing to adapt to a new normal. Application architectures are more modern and cloud native; on premises data centers are extending to include multi-cloud and edge compute environments; and the work environment is no longer a single campus or branch, but rather anywhere an employee can connect to the Internet. This new reality introduces complexity that the network of the past 20 years was not designed to address.

“Customers tell us they want the same level of automation they have in the public cloud across their entire environment. But while they can automate some parts of their network, other parts such as firewalls and load balancers still require manual tickets for provisioning. That’s why partial automation is an oxymoron; it’s a half-built bridge that does nothing to get customers to where they want to be,” said Rajiv Ramaswami, chief operating officer, products and cloud services, VMware. “The VMware Virtual Cloud Network delivers the automation and economics of the public cloud across every element of the network and spanning the entire distributed enterprise at a time when agility and cost matter more than ever.”

At VMworld 2020, VMware is delivering a range of solutions and services to help customers survive and thrive in the most turbulent market in generations. VMware’s cloud, app modernization, networking, security and digital workspace platforms form a flexible, consistent digital foundation on which to build, run, manage, connect and protect applications, anywhere.

Delivering the Next Wave of Virtual Cloud Network Innovation

VMware will deliver new Virtual Cloud Network innovations across three areas – automation that enables the public cloud experience; modern application connectivity and security services; and solutions that re-imagine what’s possible in network security.

Network Automation that Delivers a Public Cloud Experience: VMware will add more cloud automation and scale, uptime and resiliency, ML-based predictive analytics, and intelligence to the virtual cloud network. VMware NSX-T 3.1 will support even larger-scale global deployments and disaster recovery use cases and automated deployment workflows. VMware will double the scale of NSX Federation, add new API-driven advanced routing and multicast capabilities, and offer Terraform Provider support. VMware vRealize Network Insight 6.0 will bring new assurance and verification capabilities as well as expanded VMware SD-WAN visibility. These updates will enable better planning for virtual and physical networks, improved network uptime and resiliency, faster troubleshooting, and proactive identification of potential network problems based on intent, and more effectiveness in achieving service level agreements. VMware Edge Network Intelligence is a new AIOps solution based on technology acquired from Nyansa. It will provide automated and actionable intelligence that helps assure users and IoT devices on campus, in branches, or in the home get the network performance they need to support applications.

Connecting and Protecting Modern Apps: Organizations looking to improve productivity, agility, and customer experience are embracing a container-based, micro-services architecture and standardizing on Kubernetes for container management. The connectivity and security needed to address microservices requirements while at the same time connecting Kubernetes clusters to the infrastructure introduces the need to a rich multilayer networking stack. VMware is extending the Virtual Cloud Network to connect and protect these environments through VMware Tanzu Service Mesh powered by NSX and support for Project Antrea, an open source that enables Kubernetes networking and security wherever Kubernetes runs including on-premise vSphere, public clouds as well as edge. Tanzu Service Mesh includes new capabilities focused on improving application continuity, resiliency, and security. The new VMware Container Networking with Antrea is a commercial offering consisting of signed images and binaries and full support for Project Antrea. VMware Container Networking with Antrea will be included in VMware NSX-T and vSphere 7 with Tanzu. Applications running on Kubernetes clusters using Antrea as the Container Networking Interface (CNI) can be discovered, connected, and better protected by Tanzu Service Mesh.

Re-imagining Network Security: VMware will deliver unmatched levels of firewall performance and programmable intelligence to the Virtual Cloud Network by enabling VMware NSX to run on leading SmartNICs. This includes advanced security for bare metal and highly sensitive workloads such as databases which are hard to protect today. Additionally, it enables “air gapping” of infrastructure, separating applications and hypervisors from the security controls on the SmartNIC. VMware is also announcing VMware NSX Advanced Threat Prevention, which combines NSX Distributed IDS/IPS with advanced malware detection (sandboxing) and AI-powered network traffic analysis (NTA) acquired from Lastline, Inc. These NTA capabilities use unsupervised and supervised ML machine learning models to more accurately identify threats and minimize false positives compared to other network traffic analysis tools. The solution delivers an industry-first ability to apply virtual patches at every workload, something traditionally only implemented at the perimeter, enabling more effective response to sophisticated threats before they disrupt business.

Bharti Airtel is India’s second-largest mobile network operator and the third largest on the planet. Manish Singh, general manager, Cloud Operations for Bharti Airtel, said, “Our hardware-defined network architecture posed significant challenges to our aspirations to lead India’s digitized, mobile future. It could take weeks or months to complete global changes to switches, routers, firewalls or other network elements which could impact new service delivery or current performance. By moving to an automated and more secure VMware Virtual Cloud Network built on NSX, we have improved our agility by orders of magnitude, redefined our developer experience, and made security an intrinsic part of our infrastructure.”

The University of Notre Dame is a private research university and the nation’s leading Catholic institution of higher learning. Mike Atkins, infrastructure architect at Notre Dame, said, “We are committed to making sure that our students get the highest quality, technology-enabled education. Ubiquitous access to Wi-Fi across campus plays a major part in our technology strategy, as an enabler to education and a differentiator to our University. As a result of the pandemic, we have seen a significant increase in our Wi-Fi traffic as we conduct more on-campus remote instruction. This will place additional importance on troubleshooting and proactive notifications. VMware Edge Network Intelligence makes it faster and easier to identify and fix any network problems. Edge Network Intelligence also helps us justify spending by showing quantitative data that proves that when we spend money on upgrades, we are seeing actual improvements.”

Rentokil Initial provides services that protect people from the dangers of pest-borne disease and the risks of poor hygiene. Mike Howell, group director of IT shared services, Rentokil Initial, said, "VMware SD-WAN helps us better secure a company-wide network which has resulted in up to 3,000 percent more bandwidth and savings of up to 50 percent in networking costs at some sites. Additionally, VMware NSX has become a fundamental technology underpinning our security posture, especially as we acquire companies. Being able to microsegment the network significantly to ringfence the services, applications and data within each new acquisition helps us meet stringent regulatory requirements and reduces our attack surface.”

VMware Tanzu Service Mesh and VMware Container Networking with Antrea are available. VMware NSX-T 3.1, vRealize Network Insight 6.0, VMware Edge Network Intelligence, and VMware NSX Advanced Threat Prevention are expected to be available in VMware’s Q3 FY21 which ends on October 30, 2020.

VMware Unveils 5G and Edge Advancements, Driving Southeast Asia Towards New Chapter of Innovation-Led Growth

Global COVID-19 surge adding new elements to threat environment

core/heading

SINGAPORE, July 21, 2020 – VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW), a leading innovator in enterprise software, today released the results of its third Singapore-focused cybersecurity threat report entitled, “Extended Enterprise Under Threat,” based on a survey of 251 Singaporean CIOs, CTOs and CISOs.

The research found that the threat landscape appears to have plateaued and attack frequency and sophistication have lessened during the past 12 months in Singapore. However, this has still prompted continued investment in cyber defense, with Singaporean businesses already using an average of more than eleven different cybersecurity tools, the survey found.

<a></a>Data for the report was compiled in March and April 2020 by an independent research company, Opinion Matters, on behalf of VMware Carbon Black.

Key survey findings from Singaporean respondents:

Third party breach risk on the rise in Singapore

The most common cause of breaches was identified as OS vulnerabilities (20%) but third-party application breaches account for 15% – more than double the impact they had last year, the survey found.  Island-hopping has more than tripled in attack frequency and is now the most commonly experienced attack for 10% of Singaporean respondents and it has caused 12% of breaches, the survey found.

<a></a>Rick McElroy, Cyber Security Strategist at VMware Carbon Black, said: “Island-hopping is having an increasing breach impact with 12% of survey respondents citing it as the main cause. In combination with other third-party risks such as third-party apps and the supply chain, it’s clear the extended enterprise is under pressure.”

Complex multi-technology environments

Singaporean cybersecurity professionals said they are using an average of more than eleven different tools or consoles to manage their cyber defense program, the survey found. This indicates a security environment that has evolved reactively as security tools have been adopted to tackle emerging threats. Said McElroy: “Siloed, hard-to-manage environments hand the advantage to attackers from the start. Evidence shows that attackers have the upper hand when security is not an intrinsic feature of the environment. As the cyber threat landscape reaches saturation, it is time for rationalization, strategic thinking and clarity over security deployment.”

Supplemental COVID-19 survey in Singapore.

The latest research was supplemented with a survey on the impact COVID-19 has had on the attack landscape1. According to the supplemental survey of more than 1,000 respondents from the U.S., UK, Singapore and Italy, 93% of Singaporean cybersecurity professionals said attack volumes have increased as more employees work from home. 90% said their organizations have experienced cyberattacks linked to COVID-19 malware.

Key findings from the supplemental Singapore COVID-19-focused survey:

Said McElroy: “The global situation with COVID-19 has put the spotlight on business resilience and disaster recovery planning. Those organizations that have delayed implementing multi-factor authentication appear to be facing challenges, as 32% of Singaporean respondents say the inability to implement MFA is the biggest threat to business resilience they are facing right now.”

Singaporean survey respondents were asked whether COVID-19 had exposed gaps in their disaster recovery plans, and to indicate the severity of those gaps. Their responses showed that:

Said McElroy: “These figures indicate that the surveyed CISOs may be facing difficulty in a number of areas when answering the demands placed on them by the COVID-19 situation.”

Risks directly related to COVID-19 have also quickly emerged, the survey found. This includes rises in COVID-19 malware, phishing, spear phishing and IoT exposure which were all seen by 90% of Singaporean respondents. Said McElroy: “The 2020 survey results suggest that security teams must be working in tandem with business leaders to shift the balance of power from attackers to defenders. We must also collaborate with IT teams and work to remove the complexity that’s weighing down the current model. By building security intrinsically into the fabric of the enterprise – across applications, clouds and devices – teams can significantly reduce the attack surface, gain greater visibility into threats, and understand where security vulnerabilities exist.”

About VMware’s Intrinsic Security Strategy

Security sprawl – too many products, agents, and interfaces deployed across an organization – has created complexity for security management, opening organizations to significant risk. Most security innovation over the past decade has focused on identifying and reacting to individual attacks. Little innovation has focused on hardening infrastructure itself to make it more secure or using the infrastructure to better protect an organization.

The way forward is an intrinsic security approach that combines detecting and responding to threats, in addition to hardening infrastructure. VMware makes security intrinsic from endpoint to cloud, leveraging the infrastructure to provide visibility for apps, users and devices, and combining that with leading threat detection and response capabilities to deliver a unique (and better) approach to security.
