The latest version of the award-winning VirtualShield features VirtualFlowâ„¢ Center console management, integration with the VMware VirtualCenter, template-based deployment of VM shields, and data center, cluster, host and VM-level vulnerability protection, policy and visibility into network flows.
Existing VirtualShield features also included in VirtualShield 4.0 include: dynamic cluster/VM risk reports; VM vulnerability detection/correction; VM operating system, application and port-based policy administration and dynamic content updates. Blue Lane is a VMware Technology Alliance Partner.
Great news! The article mentions the new features in version 4.0, securing the virtual infrastructure remains part of the due diligence process, at the same time introducing a tool that can help with the administration of the virtual machines from a security patching/exploit arena has to be a good thing, particularly as you scale your virtualization project to include those isolated networks/applications.
