Virtual Appliances (VMware Image)
Securing your IT infrastructure in VMware environments
Virtualisation systems offer the key benefits of reducing hardware costs and optimising resource utilisation. In particular, Managed Security Services environments provide optimal conditions for using virtualisation technology to secure diverse departmental networks.
Further significant benefits include centralised administration, monitoring and backup facilities.
Even in virtual systems individual servers need to be protected both from each other and from unauthorised access. To achieve this, the required firewalls can be integrated within the virtual environment to maximise virtualisation benefits effectively. 
gateProtect's virtual appliances make this possible.
Virtual appliances can be installed on compatible virtual systems to prevent unauthorised access by monitoring both internal traffic between the servers and external traffic between servers and the public network.
The virtual appliance is supplied as a VMware image and will run on any system with VMware Player, VMware Workstation, VMware Server or VMware ESX server installed.
You can find a summary of supported virtualisation systems in the whitelist.
