The vShield Advantage: Increased Security
vShield
Traditional Security
Cost Effective
Expensive
• Specialized hardware
appliances
• Multiple point solutions
• Single virtual appliance with
breadth of functionality
• Single framework for
comprehensive protection
Complex
Simple
• Spaghetti of different rules
and policies
• No sprawl in rules, VLANs,
agents
• Relevant visibility for VI Admins,
network and security teams
• Simplified compliance
Rigid
Adaptive
• Policy directly tied to
implementation
• Not virtualization and
change-aware
• Virtualization and change aware
• Program once, execute
everywhere
• Rapid remediation
Deployments on VMware are more secure than physical
