Recommended solutions for virtualization security and compliance:
Integrates vSphere protection and hardening policies to monitor and prevent configuration file tampering, limit inbound/outbound communications and access, stop unauthorized services from running and prevent zero day attacks against un-patched or vulnerable systems.
Reduces compliance deficiencies across converged infrastructure and integrates vSphere hardening policies that allow for scheduled automated scans to report on vSphere platform state as well as perform vulnerability scans of critical vSphere assets.
For orchestrated prevention of data loss across dynamic workloads, Data Loss Prevention integrates with vShield to discover sensitive data residing in virtual datacenters and automatically quarantine virtual machines that violate data security policies.
Off-premise, real-time virtual threat telemetry to mitigate risk, Symantec Managed Security Services utilize an integrated vShield collector to provide new threat-based context to advancing virtual infrastructures combined with 7x24 GIAC-certified Security Analyst expertise to assist with incident remediation.
Proactive protection tailored for high density environments, Symantec Endpoint Solutions plan to leverage vShield Endpoint with its endpoint security offerings to offload critical security analysis from protected virtual machines to a dedicated security virtual appliance resulting in optimized scan performance, reduced resource utilization, and increased management visibility.
Integrates a unique vShield log collector to extend visibility into the advancing virtual infrastructure for unparalleled context to threat activity with advanced telemetry between internal physical, virtual and external threat landscape intelligence to prioritize risk.
Proactive virtual fabric protection against targeted or mutating web-borne threats, Web Gateway integrates vShield App to identify endpoint infections and bot activity allowing automation of quarantine and other mitigation actions.
