VMware NSX Micro-Segmentation ? Day 1

Book excerpt: Micro-segmentation - Day 1 brings together the knowledge and guidance for planning, designing, and implementing a modern security architecture for the software-defined data center based on micro-segmentation. VMware NSX makes network micro-segmentation feasible for the first time. It enables granular firewalling and security policy enforcement for every workload in the data center, independent of the network topology and complexity. Micro-segmentation with NSX already helped over a thousand organizations improve the security posture of their software-defined data center by fundamentally changing the way they approach security architecture. Micro-segmentation - Day 1 is your roadmap to simplify and enhance security within software-defined data centers running NSX. You will find insights and recommendations proven in the field for moving your organization from a perimeter-centric security posture to a micro-segmented architecture that provides enhanced security and visibility within your data center.
