  Expert Session Overview

With so many possible approaches to securing virtual networks, it’s no wonder even virtualization and security-savvy IT pros are unsure how to proceed. Join this session for a review of the advantages and disadvantages of the main contenders, including VLANs and ACLs, physical and virtual network firewalls, and physical and virtual IDS. You’ll also learn how purpose-built VM security enables you to take full advantage of VMotion/DRS and how security providers are using key VMWare technologies like VMsafe for enhanced protection.
