The latest Palo Alto Networks VM-Series release gives organisations the ability to realize the full agility and flexibility promises of cloud; to detect and prevent known and unknown cyber threats before they compromise their virtual data centres (VDCs); and to choose the public, private or hybrid deployment architecture without compromising security.
The company is also working with VMware to extend the companies’ security and network virtualisation capabilities to hybrid cloud environments, enabling customers to apply the same security policies across their private and public infrastructure with a consistent approach to security whether the application is virtual, physical, on-premise or off-premise. Security policies today vary widely across the different platforms, says Palo Alto Networks.
Palo Alto Networks and VMware are delivering a solution that includes the Palo Alto Networks VM-1000-HV designed specifically for VMware NSX interoperability. Customers also can deploy the Palo Alto Networks VM-series with their instances of VMware vCloud Air, an enterprise-grade public cloud service.
In 2015, Palo Alto Networks and VMware expect to deliver new multi-tenant next-generation firewall as-a-service capabilities in VMware vCloud Air based on the Palo Alto Networks VM-1000-HV integration with VMware NSX.
"VMware and Palo Alto Networks are delivering on the vision of hybrid cloud, which is to design applications once, secure once, and deploy anywhere without compromise. Through our partnership, we are combining best-in-class security with the software-defined data center architecture to meet customers’ business requirements for improved security and advanced threat protection,” said Scott Collison, Vice President, Common Platforms, vCloud Air, VMware.
“The latest release of our VM-Series was specifically designed with the cloud in mind. It provides consistent automated protection for cloud computing environments so organisations can take advantage of the productivity and cost benefits provided by the cloud without compromising security,” said Lee Klarich, Senior VP of Product Management, Palo Alto Networks.
The latest release of the Palo Alto Networks VM-Series is expected to be available by the end of October including support for AWS and KVM. Palo Alto Networks customers with active maintenance agreements can obtain the software by accessing the support portal. The Palo Alto Networks VM-1000-HV is expected to be available in vCloud Air in the first half of 2015.
