We hope this December edition of our monthly software firewall update finds you getting ready for the holidays and looking forward to a new and promising year.
In this month’s digest covering the latest VM-Series and CN-Series developments, you’ll be among the first to know about getting 5G-native security in VMware Tanzu Kubernetes Grid environments with CN-Series container firewalls. In the spirit of providing the gift of security everywhere, you’ll see why VM-Series firewalls are easier to deploy in even more public clouds, including the latest details on integration with the AWS Gateway Load Balancer (GWLB). Plus you’ll find tips on how to start the new year right in private clouds with information about migrating VM-Series deployments from VMware NSX-V to VMware NSX-T.
To secure highly distributed 5G networks—including edge clouds and across multivendor and multicloud environments—you can now enable three types of security on the CN-Series container firewall: network slice security, equipment ID security, and subscriber ID security. So how does this work? Starting with PAN-OS 10.0.3, CN-Series firewalls are supported on the VMware Tanzu Kubernetes Grid (TKG) platform, along with the Intel x710, macvlan, and Multus container network interfaces (CNIs). To learn more about what CN-Series firewalls can provide, visit our LIVECommunity page.
Simplifying deployment is the gift that keeps giving. That’s why we’ve made it easier to deploy VM-Series firewalls in public clouds with the following capabilities:
Last month we announced the availability of integration between VM-Series virtual firewalls and the new AWS Gateway Load Balancer (GWLB). This integration makes it easy to deploy, scale, and manage VM-Series firewalls on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Here is additional information about this milestone integration:
Use the VMware in-host migration capability to move your VM Series deployments from NSX-V to NSX-T. This capability supports only operations-centric NSX-V deployments and is available beginning with Panorama plugin for NSX 3.2.0 and VMWare NSX-T Manager 3.1.0. Make sure to review the compatibility requirements in the Plugin Compatibility Matrix before installing this plugin and, if you need an overview of the NSX integration, review the VM-Series on NSX-T data sheet.
Do folks on your team need a primer covering the complexities of hybrid infrastructure security? Point them toward this white paper full of helpful illustrations. From public and private clouds to on-premises data centers, they’ll see just why increased infrastructure complexity and interconnectivity significantly expand the attack surface. What’s more, this resource will walk them through the key characteristics of a security platform designed specifically for hybrid architectures and they’ll discover how our approach repels real-world threats such as ransomware, cryptojacking, and container worms.
Did you miss November’s update? Take a look for information about the exciting integration with the brand new AWS Gateway Load Balancer along with news about simplified public cloud bootstrapping options, support for new CNI plugins for CN-Series firewalls, added platform support, and more.
