The reason for this is that’s where they consider their most prized possession to be, their data. But is that the correct stance? More and more cyber-attacks now start with phishing attacks on end users, using end user devices as the entry point of the attack. In this video we take a look at some typical desktop configurations, their possible vulnerabilities and where we can reduce the chance of attack by employing some simple changes without impacting desktop performance with NSX.

You can set up vRealize Automation to use an external vRealize Orchestrator server. System administrators can configure the default vRealize Orchestrator server globally for all tenants. Tenant administrators can configure the vRealize Orchestrator server only for their tenants.

VMware AppDefense is a new security solution that allows organizations to create least privilege environments around their applications running in virtualized or cloud systems, a key feature according to VMware’s senior vice president for security products, Tom Corn. Watch VMware’s Tom Corn illustrate how VMware AppDefense significantly enhances application security when working across clouds in this light board presentation.

Wade Holms and Geoff Wilmington discuss the release of the new VMware AppDefense for securing data centers.

Automating NSX for vSphere with PowerNSX has been written to cater to administrators and architects of an VMware NSX for vSphere environment.
