Through 2012, 60 percent of virtualized servers will be less secure than the physical servers they replace, according to Gartner.

In the world of physical servers, it was far easier to monitor and manage commissioning of new servers and there was only one network connection to protect. Now servers can be created, moved, copied and deployed in minutes with a few mouse clicks, by a single administrator, potentially without all the correct security steps being consistently implemented.

There is no obvious visibility of interconnections between virtual servers and the complexity of VMware environments provides a large surface for external attack.

3D Recovery provides a security audit tool for VMware environments which rapidly assesses and reports on potential vulnerabilities across entire virtual server estates with step by step instructions on remedial actions, cross referenced to VMware’s Security Hardening Guide. It also enables virtual servers to be grouped according to function and criticality to the business.

• Security assessment tool for fast scanning and assessments of VMware environments
• Rapid identification of key security risks via graphical security dashboard
• Scan against security templates - VMware hardening guidelines, CIS benchmarks, ISO 27005 or Custom templates
• Key security risks identified and prioritised
• Step by step remedial action provided, cross referenced to VMware Hardening Guidelines
• Far faster and more reliable than a manual audit, saving time and reducing costs
• Demonstrates compliance to auditors
