VMware Security is a comprehensive infrastructure security framework developed by VMware to protect private cloud environments from lateral cyber threats, enforce Zero Trust principles, and ensure compliance. It is natively integrated into VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF), providing hypervisor-level protection that extends beyond perimeter defenses to secure workloads, containers, and bare metal servers. The solution comprises several core components: VMware vDefend, which delivers Zero Trust lateral security through a unified platform; Distributed Firewall (DFW) and Gateway Firewall (GFW) for granular Layer 2–7 segmentation; Intrusion Detection and Prevention System (IDPS) for threat inspection; Malware Prevention Service (MPS) for agentless file and memory analysis; Network Traffic Analysis (NTA) for behavioral anomaly detection; and Network Detection and Response (NDR) for AI-driven threat correlation and investigation. Security architects, network defenders, and cloud operations teams use VMware Security to enforce consistent, automated policies across hybrid environments, reduce attack surface, and respond to advanced threats like ransomware with integrated, hypervisor-native controls.
