Learn How to Conquer Lateral Cybersecurity Risks at RSAC 2023

 

In a world without neatly defined network perimeters, lateral security—means detecting and mitigating threats from malicious actors who are already inside your network—is the new front in cybersecurity. To detect lateral threats, businesses need comprehensive visibility into what’s happening inside their IT estates, not just around them. They need to see every packet and every process at every endpoint.

At the upcoming RSA conference in San Franciso, we’ll be highlighting how VMware technologies like Project Northstar help organizations conquer lateral security threats. Keep reading for a sneak peek of what to expect from the VMware team at the event, and join us at RSA Conference from April 24-27 2023 at Moscone Center, North Expo Booth#5644 in San Francisco to check out the latest innovations in cloud networking and security for yourself.

Lateral Movement is the New Cyber Battleground

VMware security strategy consists of five key pillars, and we’ll be showing off all of them at the RSA Conference:

  • Networking Security with NSX
  • Carbon Black XDR
  • Secure the Hybrid Workforce
  • VMware SASE and SD-WAN
  • Modern Apps Security

We’ll demonstrate these concepts at our booth by walking visitors through use cases and demos, allowing attendees to explore Lateral Security defense strategies Continue reading

A Closer Look at VMware Networking and Security Demos at MWC 2023

Efficiency, scalability, and security are critical for modern telco networks. Operating modern 5G network infrastructure requires the ability to manage complex network operations across large-scale multi-cloud and edge environments while also meeting complex security requirements.

The VMware Telco Cloud Platform was built from the ground up to help Communications Service Providers (CSPs) meet these challenges. It combines the capabilities of VMware’s cloud infrastructure and network virtualization software (VMware vSphere, vSAN, and NSX) with a set of networking, security, and management tools built for the telco industry. The platform helps CSPs deploy and manage virtualized network functions and containerized network functions (VNFs and CNFs), reduce costs, and enhance network security while enabling new revenue-generating services.

They say you should work smarter, not harder. We agree, which is why we’ll be showcasing work at MWC 2023 that brings efficiency and intelligence to modern networking designed to help businesses thrive in the digital era through telco-friendly, smarter networking solutions.

Keep reading for a preview of what to expect from the VMware Networking and Security team at the event – and join us in person in Hall 3, stand 3M11, to check out the latest innovations in cloud networking and security for yourself.

Smarter, More Efficient Networks

The overall vision that we’ll be displaying in Barcelona at Mobile World Congress from February 27 to March 2 focuses on two key concepts – increasing network efficiency and generating value through smart networking solutions.

Specifically, we’ll be displaying:

  • Technology that enhances the Telco Efficiency of Communications Service Provider networks by guiding customers in boosting network density and reducing energy usage. Visit our booth to learn how optimizing the technology stack helps cut costs and enhance service flexibility.
  • Solutions for building Smarter Networks by leveraging breakthroughs in RAN to Edge to Core Networks and creating programmable settings that Communications Service Providers can leverage to provide advanced next-generation services. These elevated service Continue reading
