VMware Level Up Threat Prevention Inside the Data Center

With the acquisition of Lastline, VMware further extended its capabilities for NSX Firewall to deliver VMware NSX Advanced Threat Prevention (ATP). This solution includes capabilities consisting of VMware NSX Distributed IDS/IPS and Network Sandboxing and Network Traffic Analysis (NTA/NDR). NSX Advanced Threat Prevention allows security teams to stop the spread of attacks that breach the perimeter. The IDS/IPS can detect network threats by combining industry-leading signature sets and protocol decoders, the network sandbox provides complete malware analysis of artifacts traversing your data center and network traffic analysis detects lateral threats and anomalies in the traffic flow between hops.
