Securing the FutureData Center Security with VMware NSX from the Inside Out
Why A Software-Defined Data Center is the Future
Reduced Costs of Physical Infrastructure
Faster Delivery of Services
Greater Agility& Flexibility
Greater Security
Security Without Compromise
In a traditional data center, there’s often a trade off between context and isolation.
SDDC offers both, delivering greater security.
Controls in Host Operation System:
Pros:See user and application data
Cons:Vulnerable to attack
Controls in Physical Infrastructure
Pros:Protected from attacks
Cons:Lose access to contextual data
Moving Beyond the Perimeter
Most data centers are governed by perimeter-centric security models — and if the perimeter is breached, there are no controls to prevent internal attacks.
More than 30%of data center outages are caused by cyber attacks. US $500,000.
A 60-minute outage can cost businesses upwards of

VMware NSX: The Next Step in Data Center Security
Micro-segmentation limits the spread of attacks inside the data center — but until recently, it was cost-prohibitive and operationally infeasible.
So what changed?
Network virtualization.
PerformanceDelivers 20Gbps of firewall throughput & supports over 80k connections per sec, per host
AutomationAutomated deployment can quickly adjust security policies for greater agility
How NSX Makes Micro-Segmentation Possible:
Layered Protection
VMware NSX is the network virtualization and security platform for the SDDC. It delivers three levels of micro-segmentation security to limit the spread of attacks inside the data center:
Isolation
Segmentation
Security with Advanced Services
Secure Your Data Center for the Future
A well-protected SDDC requires security controls on the perimeter and inside the data center.
With VMware NSX, that’s finally possible.
