Just a friendly reminder that I keep the ‘net Neutrality page up to date with a selection of articles I find from all sorts of different viewpoints. I am trying to avoid the “this is what you can do,” and “the fight is not over” sorts of articles, and focus on arguments making points in either one direction or the other, or some perspective I have not seen before.
I just added three more articles today.
“It’s the No. 1 reason for the success and growth of our company.”
While many have already seen something on these two, this is the best set of articles I’ve found on these vulnerabilities and the ramifications.
You don’t have to worry if you patch. If you download the Continue reading

NSX is an extensible platform; other vendors security solutions can be added to it by means of the Northbound REST API, and two private APIs: NETX for network introspection, and EPSEC for guest introspection.
Fortinet’s FortiGate-VMX solution uses the NSX NETX API to provide advanced layer 4-7 services via service insertion, also called service chaining. This enables the additional inspection of VM traffic prior to that traffic reaching the vSwitch. This enhances micro-segmentation where there is need for greater application recognition, anti-malware, and other Next Generation Firewall features. The scale-out nature of NSX is maintained as NSX handles the instantiation of FortiGate service VMs on the hosts within the deployed cluster retaining its operational advantages, if the cluster grows additional FortiGate-VMX service machines will be created as needed.
One of the primary advantages to FortiGate-VMX is the availability of VDOMs for multi-tenancy in a service provider or enterprise environment – this enables segmenting traffic by organization, business group, or other construct in addition to application. The segregation includes the administration, VDOMs are managed independently of one another, this can also be used to split the different security functions such as anti-virus, IPS, and application control into isolated units or only Continue reading
As you may have heard, VMware and Carbon Black have come together to deliver best-in-class security architected for today’s data centers.
In this demo, you’ll see an example of how CB Defense and VMware AppDefense combine to enforce known good application behavior and detect threats using industry leading detection and response technology.
For this demo, we’ll show how an advanced security breach can come in under the guise of an innocuous application (Powershell) and often go undetected. We’ll walk through the steps that security teams can now take to respond and address the attack all in one application.
The post VMware AppDefense & CB Defense Demo appeared first on Network Virtualization.
