Research Report: Trend Micro Offers All Security Components for Virtualization
Security
Accompanying November 5th Webcast on 'Securing the Physical, Virtual, Cloud
Continuum,' presented by Nemertes Research and Trend Micro




CUPERTINO, Calif., Nov. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Enterprises are adopting
virtualization at a swifter pace than ever before and Trend Micro offers all
functions for virtualization security, according to an independent report by
Nemertes Research. 

The report examines key trends surrounding virtualization, how enterprises are
implementing a virtual environment in relation to their overall security
infrastructure, and how the roles of compliance and Defense-in-Depth are
critical parts of an enterprise's virtualization security strategy. 

In the report, Nemertes Research categorizes the majority of virtualization
security vendors and Trend Micro covers all functional areas, including: Host
based protection, anti-malware, virtual appliance, virtual zones, virtual
infrastructure protection, VM lifecycle protection, log and patch management,
and configuration management. No other vendor included in the report matches
all functional areas. 

Over 90 percent of organizations that participate in Nemertes benchmark
research are adopting virtualization," said Ted Ritter, senior research
analyst at Nemertes Research. "Increasing flexibility, agility and reducing
environmental footprint are primary virtualization drivers. Yet,
virtualization creates two major challenges for enterprise security teams: 
Meeting compliance requirements and maintaining defense-in-depth.  Physical
security products do not address these challenges and worse, they negate much
of the primary benefits of virtualization.   Fully addressing these challenges
requires a comprehensive virtualization security solution."

Please join Ted Ritter, senior research analyst at Nemertes Research and
Harish Agastya, director of product marketing at Trend Micro as they discuss
the rise of virtualization and cloud computing and the impact this is having
on security best practices and next-generation security technology.

When: Thursday, November 5 at 11:00 am Pacific/ 2:00 pm Eastern
