SOLUTION BRIEF

BUILDING THE ENTERPRISE- CLASS SECURE HYBRID CLOUD VCE and TREND MICRO PARTNER TO SECURE HYBRID CLOUD DEPLOYMENTS

MAXIMIZE YOUR HYBRID CLOUD SECURITY AND PERFORMANCEVirtualization and cloud computing have the power to transform your company with the flexible delivery of computing resources across your business. Whether used to consolidate servers, deploy virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) to deliver desktops as a managed service, or enable cloud computing for unparalleled business agility, virtualization can help you break barriers and achieve more business innovation and growth. But pulling everything together to evolve your data center can be difficult. If the physical infrastructure, virtualization platform, and security don’t work together, you won’t achieve the anticipated return on investment for your virtualization and cloud computing projects.

The VCE™ Vblock, VxRack, and VxBlock Systems combine industry-leading technologies from Cisco, EMC, and VMware that deliver compute, network, storage, virtualization, and management technologies in prepackaged units. This converged infrastructure enables pre-configured, rapidly deployable hybrid cloud computing solutions that can lower capital and operational costs while providing new strategic opportunities for your business.

As you deploy the VCE converged and hyper-converged infrastructure, you need security that is designed to protect these environments without sacrificing performance. Adding Trend Micro security to your Vblock Systems will enable you to achieve high consolidation rates with lower management complexity, while providing a single platform of comprehensive security for your virtual and cloud environments. Trend Micro™ Deep Security™ is Vblock Ready certified, ensuring that Trend Micro Deep Security works within the VCE pre-configured and tested environment.

TREND MICRO DEEP SECURITYAs a recognized leader in virtualization, VCE has also integrated VMware into its blocks, racks, and appliance systems. Trend Micro has been working with VMware for years to design security for VMware software-defined data center and cloud infrastructures through the Deep Security solution. This makes Trend Micro Deep Security a perfect complement to the VCE systems.

As a security solution with Vblock Ready and VCE Validation Ready certifications, Deep Security enables workloads to be deployed safely and effectively within VCE’s optimized cloud infrastructure, helping you reduce risks and meet compliance and governance requirements.

CONVERGED SECURITY FOR THE CONVERGED AND HYPER-CONVERGED INFRASTRUCTURE Trend Micro Deep Security provides a wide range of centrally managed security modules, including anti-malware, integrity monitoring, intrusion detection and prevention, and bi-directional stateful firewall. These tightly integrated modules easily expand the platform to ensure server, application, and data security across physical, virtual, and cloud servers, as well as virtual desktops. This comprehensive security solution can help scale your virtualization and cloud environments securely without compromising performance and efficiency.

Available through the VCE Technology Alliance Partner (TAP) Program to partners whose solutions are certified as interoperable with Vblock Systems.

Certification verifies: • Deep Security installation on

Vblock Systems with no errors

• Test cases demonstrating Deep Security capabilities as claimed on Vblock Systems

• No performance degradation for running Deep Security on Vblock Systems

• Primary integration points (e.g., APIs, SNMP) with function as intended

• Ability to provide customer assurance that Deep Security will work predictably on a Vblock System

COMPREHENSIVE SECURITY DESIGNED TO AUTOMATICALLY PROTECT APPLICATIONS AND DATA

This joint solution provides full protection for virtualized data centers and desktops while delivering:

• Higher VM density by offloading security scans from individual VMs to a single security virtual appliance on each VMware vSphere host

• Optimized resources by eliminating security storms and resource contention from multiple security agents

• Simplified management by eliminating agents and the need to configure and update each one

• Stronger security with instant-on protection for new VMs and tamper-proof security coordinated by the dedicated security appliance

This lets customers focus on business objectives such as:

• Easily building, securing, and scaling enterprise-grade applications, such as SAP and Oracle

• Automating the security for VDI deployments and enabling enterprise-grade scalability

• Rapidly deploying secure hybrid clouds with layered unit-level protection, unified policies, and single-pane-of-glass management across private and public clouds

• Addressing key compliance requirements for PCI 3.1, HIPAA, NIST, SSAE-16, FedRAMP, and others, using a single security platform

Comprehensive security designed to: • Detect and protect instance

against serious vulnerabilities

• Uncover suspicious changes to system files and processes

• Accelerate compliance (PCI_DSS, HIPAA, NIST, SAS70, and more)

• Keep malware off workloads

• Stop application attacks
