Hey, I can spin-up VMs

Why does it take
a week to get
network/firewall changes
State of Virtualization vs. Networking

DATA CENTERS
are rapidly evolving.

Virtual
Datacenter
DATA CENTER EVOLUTION
• Server (compute) virtualization
• Network operation is manual
Software
Defined
Datacenter
Private Cloud
• Network are is also virtualized
• Services can be dynamically inserted and
orchestrated via automation

THE NEW ERA OF
SOFTWARE-DEFINED DATACENTERS (SDDC)
Allowing IT to deliver applications at a fraction
of the cost and time in a more secure way!

SECURITY CHALLENGES IN THE CURRENT
DATACENTER

WEST EAST
SOUTH
NORTH
Perimeter (north-south) security is
blind to 80% of the east-west data center traffic
Challenge #1: Increasing Traffic Inside the Datacenter

• Lack of security control between VMs
• Threat can easily traverse VLANs
• Threats attack low-priority service
and then move to critical systems
Modern threats can spread laterally inside the data center,
moving from one application to another
Challenge #2: Lateral Threats Inside the Data Center

Traditional static controls fail to secure dynamic networks
and highly mobile applications
Challenge #3: Security Ignores Data Center Changes
• New Virtual Machines
• Virtual Machine movement
• VM that change IP address
• Dormant VMs that wakes up
• VMs move between VLANs

How to define secure policy for
catalog applications that have not
been provisioned and still don’t have
IP address?
Lack of security automation impacts business agility in
delivering services, results in security gaps
Challenge #4: Security Inhibits Data Center Agility

Securing SDDC - goals
 Better SECURITY
 Better MANAGED
 Better PERFORMANCE

Securing SDDC - goals
 Increased visibility and control
 DEEP inspection, CLOSE to applications
 Security is natural part of modern SDDC design
 Improved security policy management
 avoid overhead by knowing CONTEXT
 FLEXIBLE for application deployments and changes
 Performance and scalability
 SCALABLE - growing with datacenter growth
 no choke point design

Building blocks
• Automated security provisioning (new ESXi hosts
deployed with security from beginning)
• Transparent security insertion – configurable
redirection to deep inspection engine
• Cloud management systems integration into Security
Management – consume objects and state of
NSX/vCenter (using SDDC context)
• Tagging VMs with security incidents
• API and CLI for security automation and
orchestration

Check Point vSEC + VMware NSX
How it works

CHECK POINT vSEC DEPLOYMENT
NSX automatically provisions Check Point vSEC gateway on each host

NSX manager automatically
deploys and provisions Check
Point vSEC Gateway on each host
CHECK POINT vSEC AUTO-DEPLOYMENT

Automatically & instantly
scale vSEC to secure VMs

CHECK POINT vSEC AUTO-DEPLOYMENT

Use NSX to segment Virtual Machines
into different Security Groups using a flat network
