Securing Data Centers and Clouds

Over the last decade, the modern data center has changed dramatically, raising a host of new security challenges. For one, the perimeter, which looks at less than 20 percent of the traffic, is not providing adequate security. Another challenge is that the aggregate traffic within a data center has swollen to multi-terabit levels. At these traffic rates, popular security technologies such as intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDP) and next-generation firewalls, which are based on deep packet inspection (DPI) and signature-based detection methods, consume too much compute time and become impractical for widespread use.
Aligned with the Gartner model of Adaptive Security Architecture, the Guardicore Centra Security Platform helps address this interior data center security challenge by providing a unique combination of process-level visibility, threat deception, semantic-based analysis and automated response.
