Traditional security has little meaning in a borderless Software Defined Data Center Insufficient visibility into East-West traffic & inter-vm attacks Static policies cannot keep up with dynamic workloads Service Provisioning is Slow, Complex & Error-prone Disparate security solutions and lack of uniform policies across clouds creates an operational nightmare
Traditional approaches to reduce breaches inside Data Center perimeter... Adding more internal security Requires placing more security controls across workloads Internet Physical Security Appliances Optimized for Data Center Perimeter Cost prohibitive: thousands needed Configuration and security policies restricted by network topology Inefficient choke point Impractical for lateral coverage Virtual Security Appliances Today Data Center Perimeter Lacks selective traffic inspection for smarter security Hair-pinning impacts performance Limited segmentation capabilities Lacks dynamic provisioning, deployment and scale out
Data Center Security Options vs. Secure Perimeter Zero-Trust Pervasive Security 37
Problem: Data Center Network Security Perimeter-centric network security has proven insufficient, and micro-segmentation is operationally infeasible Internet Internet Little or no lateral controls inside perimeter Insufficient Operationally Infeasible
Why traditional approaches are operationally infeasible Create firewall rules before provisioning Update Firewall rules when move or change Delete firewall rules when app decommissioned Problem increases with more East-West traffic Internet Perimeter Firewalls 39

NSX Platform Extensibility With Advanced Security Add leading security solutions to your micro-segmentation deployment for greater security Apply the SDDC operational model to 3 rd -party security products Adapt to changing security conditions in the data center by enabling security solutions to share intelligence 1 2 3 Traditional Data Center NSX Data Center Static service chain In a traditional data center, security services must be configured when the network is architected, meaning the chain of services is locked in once deployed. This is an inefficient use of resources and cannot defend against changing threat conditions. Dynamic service chain In an NSX data center, 3 rd -party security solutions use NSX security tags to share intelligence, adapting to changing security conditions. NSX automatically applies the correct security function as needed.
