That is why Clavister offers the world's most affordable, complete and easy-to-deploy security gateway solution especially designed for virtual infrastructures, which allows you to reap the true benefits from virtualization in a secure way.

The Virtualization Trend

More and more organizations are focusing on virtualization and reaping the benefits of cost reduction, higher utilization of hardware, less power consumption and an optimized infrastructure, not to mentioned benefits such as ease of deployment and improved service availability. But there is one thing that does not come for free with virtualization and that is security. Virtualization puts new and demanding requirements on security, and therefore requires a virtualized security solution especially designed for virtual infrastructures.

Virtualization is currently being adopted by all Fortune 100 organizations and nine out of ten leading Fortune 500 organizations and recently ranked the number one spot on Gartner (www.gartner.com) Top 10 Technology list, it is fair to say that virtualization is a hot topic. However, recent research by international research institute YouGov (www.yougov.com) shows that 41% percent of those who deploy virtualization believed that security is being built in. This is not true and poses a serious security threat to these organizations.

Why Virtual Security Gateways Are Needed

Using traditional, non-virtualized security solutions in conjunction with a virtualized environment in many ways defeats the benefits with virtualization, such as cost-savings and ease of administration. It is clear that organizations need to adopt a virtualized security solution especially designed for virtual infrastructures, especially since the virtual environment is a very dynamic environment, where servers are added, removed and change place frequently. This means that the traditional security solution cannot offer the same level of security as security solutions which operate within the virtual environment.


Introducing Clavister Virtual Security Gateway Series

Clavister is proud to offer a leading virtual security solution for Data Centers/Hosting Providers, Telecom Operators and leading organizations. The Clavister Virtual Security Gateway Series joins the rank of the award-winning Clavister Security Gateway Series offering the same powerful Unified Treat Management (UTM) services as its hardware appliance and software appliance siblings. However, the main difference is that the Clavister Virtual Security Gateway Series runs inside the virtual environment as an integrated part and can therefore be managed as any other virtualized applications.

Security in virtualized environments must be easy to configure, maintain and deploy and requires special considerations regarding resource utilization. Given the dynamic nature of the virtualized environment, where virtualized applications can be restarted and moved, it is mandatory that the virtualized security solution operates within the virtualized environment. This is also a requirement for enabling protection between virtualized servers. Without securing the inter-communication between virtualized applications, it is not possible to achieve regulatory compliance, which is often a requirement for many solutions.

This is especially true for Managed Security Service Providers (MSSP) and Data Centers who need an effective way to provision new services to customers. Clavister, as a VMware Technology Alliance Partner, has worked hard to ensure that the Clavister Virtual Security Gateway Series is uniquely positioned as being very efficient on resource utilization and easy to manage in a virtual environment.
