Security for Virtualization
Security for Virtualization is a solution offering new level of security, which has been developed specifically for virtual machines industry to help businesses to maintain high virtualization density and high performance and increase return on investment.
Traditional agent-based antivirus software may provide robust protection but at a steep cost as it is loaded on each server partition running a virtual machine, thus requiring increased system resource what affects memory pools, storage, CPU utilisation and overall performance of the server, resulting in the poorer performance of the whole system.
Instead of running a separate security agent on every virtual machine, our customers have the better option to set up one Security for Virtualization from Kaspersky which offers much more efficient way to protect any virtualized environment and reduce load on servers’ processors, memory, storage and I/O, greatly increase performance of the server and number of virtual machines, thus boosting customers return on investment.
Security for Virtualization anti-malware engine combines signature-based, proactive and cloud-assisted technologies to deliver a superior detection rates, including protection against zero-day threats, and protects Microsoft Hyper-V, Citrix Xen and VMware environments by a single virtual appliance on each virtual host and a tiny agents installed on each virtual machine.
A great advantage of the Security for Virtualization solution is the integration with Kaspersky Security Management Center. The unified administration console of Kaspersky Security Management Center allows IT team to manage the security of all virtual machines, plus all other Kaspersky virtual, physical and mobile security applications the customer is running in his network.
