Virtualization and the Cloud: Encryption Enables a Fast and Secure Migration

Gargi Mitra Keeling, Group Product Manager, vCloud Security, VMware; Imam Sheikh, Product Manager, Virtualization, SafeNet
The business benefits and economies of migrating to virtualized and cloud environments are very clear, providing significant cost reduction and system efficiencies, moving to a “pay as you go model”. However, when you move to a dense virtual infrastructure or cloud, you often lose control of the underlying infrastructure, therefore ownership and control of data in that infrastructure. In addition, workloads are mobile yet security is usually tied to underlying infrastructure, removing any assurances that security policies can be enforced as workloads move.

In the journey to virtualization and the cloud, many organizations are still contending with large pools of physical infrastructure. They want to gain the efficiency and lower cost associated with server consolidation and virtualization, but security and audit teams advise them this puts the company’s sensitive data at risk. Automating IT in a private cloud keeps developers and other users in-house and under an organization’s control, but rapid deployment of workload requires agile security.

Join your fellow professionals to first understand the challenges and roadblocks of migrating to the cloud and virtualized environments, and where the data security gaps exist. Then understand how by attaching security to the data itself and managing the encryption keys, you are able to maintain control of your data, prove compliance, and facilitate governance – even in a dense virtual or cloud environment. Virtualization, Hybrid or Public cloud offerings can now be used for broader workloads (including ones containing business critical, sensitive data ie. production servers in addition to test and development), while still delivering the security and compliance requirements needed.

  • Cyber Security Management in a Highly Innovative World Jun 13 2013 2:00 pm UTC 45 mins
    Cyber attacks are reaching pandemic levels. State-sponsored groups and organized crime are successfully stealing valuable intellectual property—including critical infrastructure and operational readiness information, businesses’ and consumers’ financial data—often without anyone realizing the attack has occurred. But preparedness cannot be delegated solely to the IT department. The involvement of the entire enterprise, armed with an understanding of the highly dynamic landscape, is vital for warding off potential threats.

    Join your fellow professionals to discuss these trends, and, more importantly, some new perspectives on how to address them:

    Risks:

    Impacts on risk from evolving adversaries
    Risks driven by changes in the changing technology landscape
    (including cloud, virtualization, consumerization and mobile)
    The ever empowered privileged user

    Solutions

    Adversary centric security models
    Applying security without infrastructure control
    Designing for the secure breach
  • Storage Implications for Storing File Data Securely in a Distributed World Jun 12 2013 3:00 pm UTC 45 mins
    When an organization has a distributed or mobile workforce or requires executives or key personnel to work from home, the issue of securing the business critical data becomes especially problematic. In most cases today, responsibility for the security of the file data is the left up to the individual end user. Theft or even the borrowing of the mobile device leaves critical file data exposed.

    The rapid growth of BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) brings cost savings and efficiency for organizations but also a greater risk of security breaches. Today, no control or reporting of use of critical data on mobile devices is possible and this creates regulatory problems.

    Join your fellow professionals to understand the storage implications for storing file data in a distributed world and best practices on file data security.
  • Not Going Quietly; Gracefully Losing Control & Adapting to Cloud and Mobility Recorded: May 16 2013 48 mins

  • Panel: Virtual World with Virtual Risks. Can it be Cloudy and Clearly Secure? Recorded: May 15 2013 64 mins
    As companies migrate to the virtual datacenter, executives must deal with security, audit, and visibility of their environment which has grown beyond their physical datacenter. Because of this, hesitancy remains and many questions are still being asked. What is a next-gen datacenter? What changes as businesses take steps toward a hybrid datacenter? When they move to a virtualized environment, how does their data remain secured and in their control? Will encrypting data in this environment achieve visibility and control of who is accessing it? Plus despite more knowledge on virtual risks, cloud services are still being purchased without authentication, adopting cloud first and then thinking about security second. So how can organisations win the struggle with authentication in the cloud?

    Join your fellow professionals for this lively and insightful discussion providing a complete vision on virtual risks in a virtual world. Then understand a way to manage risk, maintain compliance, accelerate and protect business from evolving security threats.
  • Your Assets are Leaking: Secure the Breach Recorded: May 8 2013 53 mins
    It’s Not a Question of IF, It’s a Question of WHEN

    For decades, we have played the game; staying ahead of the hacker trying to get their hands on our most valuable asset – our data. We invested in firewalls, anti-virus, VPN, IPS all to build an impenetrable wall to safeguard that very same data.

    Our drive to the cloud has made us more vulnerable to the release of confidential data because it is impossible to protect a perimeter that no longer exists.

    Join us for this informative webcast that will introduce a new way of looking at security which advocates protecting the target rather than the vector.

    We call this “Secure the Breach”

    In 60 minutes, we will explain this groundbreaking approach of protecting what really matters where it matters and we will give you key action items to get you on this new security paradigm.
  • The Datacenter Deconstructed Recorded: Apr 25 2013 37 mins
    Today security is consuming an ever larger share of total IT spending, but security effectiveness against the data-breach epidemic is not improving. Virtualization and cloud computing have introduced an age where data is distributed across and beyond the enterprise, the edge is diffuse, hackers are skilled criminals, and insiders (both malicious and otherwise) are a constant threat to data compromise.

    This session will discuss:
    • The security changes that virtualization and cloud computing introduced
    • Who is responsible for security in the SaaS, PaaS and IaaS environments
    • The new reality that security needs to be attached to the data
  • On demand cryptographic resources for your virtual data center and cloud Recorded: Apr 17 2013 47 mins
    More than ever organizations need to cut costs, increase efficiency and maximize resources. Moving to the Cloud and consolidating your IT infrastructure is the best way to achieve this.

    Creating and protecting cryptographic keys in this environment has moved to an initial upfront concern, but how can you manage this in an efficient and agile way when you don’t have security/crypto experts available throughout your functional teams?

  • Busting the Top 5 Myths of Cloud-Based Authentication Recorded: Feb 13 2013 40 mins
    The cloud is on its way to joining the list of truly revolutionary innovations by combining technology with new business approaches that can bring significant benefits to your organization. The benefits of cloud - agility, flexibility and cost savings – also extend to strong authentication. Thousands of organizations recognize this and are already making the big switch over to cloud based authentication. In fact, analysts predict that more than 50% of enterprises will choose cloud-based services as the delivery option for new or refreshed user authentication implementations within the next few years.

    However, as with many ground-breaking innovations, this trend has also brought about some common myths.

    During this live webinar you will hear Jason Hart, VP Cloud Solutions de-mystify the top 5 most common myths about migrating to cloud-based authentication:
    • SECURITY: Cloud-based authentication isn’t as secure as server-based authentication
    • CONTROL: It is complex to set up, and hard to implement
    • AUTOMATION: Difficult and time-consuming to re-provision existing users, and enrol new users
    • CHOICE: Only one token choice per user, and can’t use existing authentication tokens during the migration
    •TCO: hidden service & maintenance costs and high upfront infrastructure costs

    Join your fellow security professionals to understand the business and technology benefits of cloud-based authentication
  • A Guide to Reducing Authentication TCO by 60% Recorded: Nov 22 2012 41 mins
    Many organizations rarely look closely at the Total Cost of Operation of their authentication solution, and instead make a decision heavily driven by the up-front purchase price. This approach shows that infrastructure investments and management overheads dominate the total cost of the solution, therefore lowering these overheads would reduce Total Cost of Operation.

    Cloud-based authentication services achieve just that saving, while increasing flexibility:

    • Up to 60% savings in Total Cost of Operation
    • 99.999% service availability
    • More effective budget utilization and flexibility with OPEX pricing
    • Up to 90% reduction in administrative overhead costs

    Join your fellow professionals to compare the Total Cost of Opertation of an on-site authentication solutions vs. a cloud-based authentication service, and then further understand the business and technology benefits of cloud-based authentication when evaluating your authentication infrastructure.
