VMworld, a marquee event for IT pros is coming soon

In less than a month, more than 20,000 IT professionals will converge at Moscone Center in San Francisco for VMworld 2015. VMware, the market leader in virtualization technology brings together thought leaders, subject-matter experts, and IT pros to explore the latest in virtualization. This year VMware plans to expand the conversation with its One Cloud, Any Application, Any Device™ architecture, which, according to VMware, enables organizations to develop, deploy, and consume all applications through a unified hybrid cloud.

Experience matters

When it comes to security, experience matters. Securing your hybrid cloud is no exception. Trend Micro, the global leader in virtualization and cloud security, and VMware, the leading provider of virtualization infrastructure, have worked together for years to innovate the most comprehensive security solution for VMware environments.

Organizations that rely on legacy physical security solutions and perimeter defenses leave security gaps that expose them to critical attacks. Trend Micro has collaborated very closely with VMware to integrate into the VMware platform at a granular level to improve virtualization. By providing automated security solutions architected to fully take advantage of the VMware platform’s benefits, we eliminate performance lags and security gaps. Our comprehensive security platform provides advanced security controls beyond just traditional perimeter firewalls, such as anti-malware, intrusion prevention (IPS), integrity monitoring, and log inspection.

The depth of Trend Micro’s security experience means your user experience is seamless. Only Trend Micro Deep Security protects thousands of customers and millions of servers. And it was purpose-built to provide you with an intuitive and trusted security experience across the entire software-defined data center.

Automated security for your hybrid cloud

Trend Micro Deep Security, the #1 server security platform, provides automated security for your hybrid cloud. You can protect all your servers—physical, virtualized, cloud—with a single security solution.  Deep Security includes multiple, advanced security controls that provide threat protection capabilities and it works seamlessly with all the major virtualization platforms.

  • VMware vSphere (including vSphere 6): Deep Security provides agentless and lightweight agent-based options.
  • VMware NSX: When deployed with VMware NSX, Deep Security greatly enhances the security posture of the data center by extending micro-segmentation with agentless advanced security controls for system and network security. This enables granular unit-level security at a VM level.
  • VMware Horizon VDI and vDaaS environments: Deep Security extends the security controls, with efficiency design elements such as scan caching, to offer best-in-class performance for VDI deployments. This results in up to 20x faster scans, 2x faster logins, and 30% more VM density.
  • VCloud Air: Deep Security enables vCloud users to fulfill their shared security responsibilities by easily extending on-premises security to cloud workloads.

Key capabilities

With Trend Micro Deep Security, you benefit from advanced threat protection for your software-defined data center with key capabilities including:

  • Vulnerability shielding with virtual patching to protect applications and servers from unknown and known vulnerabilities like Shellshock and Heartbleed
  • Deployment flexibility: available as software or as a service. Includes full multi-tenant capabilities for easy service operation
  • Reduced cost and complexity: highly integrated with VMware vSphere to reduce operational impact with a single platform for management of security controls and policies across multiple environments: physical, virtual, and cloud
  • Easy administrationwith tight integrations to management consoles from Trend Micro, VMware, and enterprise directories
  • Compliance: addresses major regulatory requirements for PCI DSS 3.0, HIPAA, NIST, SAS 70, and many others
