News flash! Virtualization is here to stay. All indicators from big business, analyst firms and the vendor community point towards virtualization continuing to enjoy explosive growth as a core IT strategy that will transform the datacenter. However, recent studies have shown that organizations frequently get enamored in the hot technology of the day and they begin deploying before the complexities and implications on security & compliance are well understood. When considering the case of PCI DSS and the introduction of virtualization, there are significant challenges in meeting the prescribed technical controls and in some situations, existing security solutions such as IDS and IPS could be made ineffective. As adoption continues, companies must go through a very thorough analysis of how to properly and securely implement virtualization, and develop a plan that will ensure virtualization has a positive, rather than a negative impact. This session will examine both the positive and negative ways that virtualization can impact data security and compliance.
