Traditional approaches to securing data centers have focused

on strong perimeter defenses to keep threats outside the

network. Once attackers are inside, it's difficult to stop them.

Divide the data center into distinct security segments, and

integrate with leading third-party security solutions to:

Define security

controls and network

services for each

unique segment

Restrict an attacker’s

lateral movements,

even after a

perimeter breach

BUILD A STRONGER DEFENSE with

MICRO-SEGMENTATION

With network virtualization, micro-segmentation has

become a practical and powerful reality where:

STRENGTHEN YOUR DATA CENTER with

MICRO-SEGMENTATION ENABLED BY VMWARE NSX®

The Software-Defined Data Center extends core

virtualization technologies to the entire data center.

Through network virtualization, organizations can

deploy micro-segmentation for the following use cases:

Network security

inside the data center

DMZ anywhere Secure user

environments

Security is

everywhere

Core virtualization

technologies

transform data-

center economics

Automation and

non-disruptive

deployment provide

business agility

TRANSFORM YOUR DATA CENTER with

NETWORK VIRTUALIZATION

DATA CENTER ATTACKSBEFORE THEY HAPPEN.

STOP

Isolate
