Blue Lane Technologies today announced the general availability of
VMware Infrastructure 3 hypervisor protection for its version 3.1
ServerShield appliances. The addition of host coverage extends Blue Lane
’s
leadership in data center vulnerability protection to also include
hypervisor service console software vulnerabilities.
“Blue Lane continues to deliver more server
vulnerability protection than any network or host intrusion prevention
system vendor,” said Allwyn Sequeira, SVP
product operations at Blue Lane Technologies. “Blue
Lane’s advanced protocol context aware
architecture, combined with comprehensive vulnerability protection
across all major data center operating systems and applications, has now
been extended to the VMware ESX host. The result is comprehensive
and accurate protection of physical and virtual environments with no
signatures.”
Addressing the unique security challenges of the data center, Blue Lane’s
ServerShield is the only solution that:
-
Delivers unprecedented accuracy, visibility and availability for
servers and hypervisor hosts;
-
Requires no signatures, tuning or code changes on the server or
hypervisor;
-
Protects servers and hypervisors from leading evasive attacks,
including mutating bots, Layer 2 attacks and SQL injection;
-
Delivers protection for virtual and physical infrastructures without
requiring hardware upgrades; and
-
Delivers very high server and hypervisor availability with very low
latency.
“As organizations virtualize their physical
data centers, they need to design appropriate security into their plans,”
commented Jeff Palmer, president and CEO at Blue Lane Technologies. “Blue
Lane is the only vendor to offer comprehensive and accurate protection
that can scale to meet security requirements as organizations virtualize
their servers, based around our ServerShield and VirtualShield products.”
