August 12: Micro-Segmentation 101: Securing East/West Traffic
Join VMware and Carahsoft and learn how to leverage the distributed virtual switch to achieve the most granular network segmentation available in your virtual environment.
Go beyond visibility to achieve real security outcomes. Leverage the micro-segmentation solution that goes beyond L4 controls to allow for complete stateful L7 controls and advanced threat protection. Deploy network segments easily, enable application isolation, and achieve granular micro-segmentation with a single solution that provides consistent policy across virtualized, containerized, and bare metal workloads spanning private and public cloud environments.
In this webcast, attendees will learn:
- What micro-segmentation is and how to achieve it with network insight
- Why traditional perimeter firewalls are becoming obsolete for protecting east-west traffic
- How to build a plan perfectly tailored to your environment’s specific traffic flow
NSX brings significant benefits to customers, which a fabric-only solution such as Cisco ACI cannot provide. These include secure micro-segmentation, end-to-end automation of networking and security services, and enabling application continuity.
- Comparisons between ACI for fabric and NSX for micro-segmentation
- When to deploy both solutions based on your current environment
- Overview and highlights of the Cisco and NSX design guide
