Three key points to check the security of the enterprise cloud environment

We know it's not easy to structure your virtualized data center or cloud environment. When you build your own environment, you look for important components that you can match. Security is just one of these components, of course it's the key piece! But it's just one of them, and it needs to be combined with your overall infrastructure. How do you know your security is appropriate? Check from three places:

Check your virtual environment, whether it's a virtual desktop or virtual machine

How well do your security solutions understand your virtual environment and be able to work together? If there is no way to combine perfectly, the best situation is that you will have a problem with efficiency. The worst case scenario is that vulnerabilities in your environment can cause information security to leak out. As part of our cloud and data center solution, the Deep Discover Inspector (DDI) provides agentless virtual security devices that can operate directly on entity hosts within VMware environments. This innovative approach provides complete security for virtual data centers and virtual machines without the need to install software on each machine. With some APIs, there is complete visibility into the traffic between virtual machine management programs and virtual machines on the physical machine. Virtual machines can automatically have the latest security policies and the protection of the correct operating system-level patches.

Check two, the action that suits you to move to the cloud

As some applications and environments move to the cloud, we understand that you do not want to maintain a separate set of policies in your cloud environment while ensuring that you have consistent security coverage.

Deep Discover Inspector (DDI) consolidates Vcloud Director provides unified management and common security policies across data centers and cloud-based virtual machines. Policies can be automatically applied to any new virtual or cloud deployment, which can significantly reduce management issues, as long as one console can manage all environments.

Check for your application environment

We've heard concerns about managing more and more Web application vulnerabilities, and it's not easy to keep updating and solving problems. As more and more Web applications have become business-critical, downtime or application intrusion means that there may be a loss of millions of of dollars or serious damage to brand reputation. You need to make sure that your security solutions are compatible with the types of applications you deploy to the cloud and virtual environments.

As part of our cloud and Datacenter solutions, Web application and platform-level detection and defense capabilities can be given to all business-critical applications.

So what is a security checklist? Can be deeply integrated with your virtual environment, across the cloud and data center environment, to protect your applications and apply to your day-to-day operations.
