THE ERA OF BORDERLESS VIRTUALIZED DATA CENTERSMillions of customers are adopting virtualization technologies for data center workloads, and more recently networks, to drive efficiency, improve speed and agility, and lower costs. The speed and agility of the public cloud is driven primarily by the power of the software-defined data center. The modern data center has no physical boundaries with workloads distributed in various corners of the world. In this era of borderless data centers, it is becoming increasingly important to address the unique security and compliance issues introduced by these deployment models. How can you protect your data center assets seamlessly without compromising the benefits of virtualization, and stay compliant?

This comprehensive security solution can help you scale your virtualization and cloud environments securely without compromising performance and efficiency. And, you can avoid the operational nightmare of having to manage multiple point security solutions, which inevitably leads to disjointed policies and a huge management overhead.

HOW DO THE INTEGRATIONS WORK?Deep Security provides comprehensive security across VMware environments. Below are some examples of typical customer deployment scenarios to explain how Deep Security can help.

Deployment Scenarios:

PrIvAtE ClOud (software-defined data center) Deep Security provides lightweight, agentless capabilities for the vSphere platform. When deployed with NSX, Deep Security greatly enhances the security posture of the data center by extending micro-segmentation with advanced security controls for system and network security, to provide granular security at a Virtual Machine (VM) level. When deployed in Horizon VDI and vDaaS environments, Deep Security extends the multi-vector security capabilities with efficient design elements, such as scan caching, to offer best-in-class performance for VDI deployments. This results in up to 20x faster scans, 2x faster logins, and 30% more VM density.

PublIC ClOud Trend Micro Deep Security lets vCloud users fulfill their shared security responsibilities by easily extending on-premises security to cloud workloads through the vCloud Air Connector. If you are using vCloud Air and have deployed Deep Security in your data center, you will have a built-in advantage with instant-on cloud security optimized for vCloud Air. If you prefer a SaaS consumption model, Deep Security-as-a-Service provides a flexible consumption option, keeping in line with the spirit of the public cloud.

HybrId ClOud By leveraging Deep Security’s interoperability with VMware vCloud Director and other VMware technologies, administrators can automatically detect virtual machines (VMs) and apply context-based security policies. This provides consistent security across the data center and into the cloud.

Single pane-of-glass management visibility across clouds:

You can leverage your vRealize Operations Manager investment to bring it all together with the Deep Security plug-in module for the vCOps dashboard, unifying visibility into security and operations and enabling you to pinpoint issues when they occur, no matter whether the deployment is private or hybrid/public cloud. This integration allows the operations team to see the security status, security-related events, and overall health of the virtual data center from a single view. This helps correlate system activity with security activity and holistically addresses problems in the virtual data center.
