A virtual machine (VM) uses software to run programs and deploy apps instead of using physical computer hardware. Multiple VMs can run on a single physical host machine. Each VM runs its own operating system separately from other VMs. VMs provide benefits like cost savings, agility, scalability, and security by isolating applications. However, VMs can also result in slower performance compared to physical machines. A hypervisor manages interactions between the physical hardware and VMs, enabling virtualization. There are two main types of hypervisors - type 1 runs directly on the hardware while type 2 runs within a host operating system.
An intrusion detection system (IDS) monitors network traffic and system activities for suspicious activity that could indicate a security threat or attack. An IDS analyzes patterns in traffic to identify potential threats. There are network IDS that monitor entire network traffic and host IDS that monitor individual systems. An IDS detects threats but does not prevent them. An intrusion prevention system (IPS) can detect and prevent threats by blocking malicious traffic in real-time. An IPS combines IDS detection capabilities with preventative blocking functions. Common types of IPS include inline network IPS, layer 7 switches, application firewalls, and hybrid switches.
IP multicast is a method of sending Internet Protocol (IP) datagrams to a group of interested receivers in a single transmission. It is often employed for streaming media applications on the Internet and private networks.(wikipedia)
Web servers help deliver content that can be accessed through the Internet. Tim Berners-Lee developed the first web server, known as CERN httpd, in 1989 at CERN. Web servers listen on port 80 and handle requests by mapping URLs to files in their root directories or by dynamically generating content. They create and send responses back to clients, handling connections by forking new threads or processes. Apache is the most commonly used web server, hosting over 60% of websites in March 2011.

Zeus is a distributed transactional database that exploits dynamic data locality to provide fast, reliable distributed transactions. It does this by having each data object have a single node owner and tracking ownership through a replicated directory. Transactions are executed locally on the coordinator node by acquiring ownership of all accessed objects. This allows transactions to be committed through a single-node process and avoids expensive distributed commit. Ownership transfers dynamically based on access patterns to maintain locality. Experimental results show Zeus can achieve up to millions of transactions per second even without using RDMA.
An IP address is a unique number assigned to devices connected to a computer network using the Internet Protocol. It has two main functions: to identify hosts or network interfaces and to provide location addressing. There are different versions of IP addresses, with IPv6 using a 128-bit address to allow for a vastly greater number of devices. IP addresses also have classes that categorize their ranges and intended uses, such as private networks or multicast addressing. An IP address is always used together with a subnet mask to further define the network portion of the address.

The document discusses how networks and applications can become more aware of each other to improve the experience for end users. Currently, networks and applications operate independently without much visibility into each other. The document proposes that applications share information about end users and traffic with networks, and networks share information about topology, bandwidth, and resources with applications. This would allow applications to optimize content placement and resource usage, and networks to gain insights to better optimize traffic and provide new services. The document argues this type of programmable network can improve areas like security, performance, analytics and more.

Compliance and Governance Through Complex Entitlement ManagementNoam Bunder
DataScan implemented AquaLogic Enterprise Security (ALES) to manage entitlements and comply with financial regulations. ALES allows DataScan to define security policies centrally and enforce them across applications without modifying code. This improves agility to respond to changing requirements and increases efficiency by removing security logic from applications. DataScan worked with BEA Professional Services on an SOA-based implementation using Java. Ongoing best practices include training IT administrators, integrating prototypes, and focusing on standards-based compliance.
BayThreat Why The Cloud Changes EverythingCloudPassage
Subtitle: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Get DevOps to Love Security
These slides are from a talk delivered by Rand Wacker at BayThreat 2011.
ABSTRACT: Take a look around, you might be surprised who is running servers in the cloud; you might be even more surprised about what they are running. Unfortunately, these people rarely if ever thought to tell the security teams, and that means big problems for us all. Securing servers in the cloud is different, very different, than in a traditional data center, but all the same risks are there. Lets start by understanding who is using the cloud, why it is so different, and what works and doesn't work from our typical security toolbox. Then lets try to solve some of those problems and come up with some best practices to help us and those we work with do what they need…securely.

The document discusses the total cost of ownership for traditional desktop management and VMware View virtual desktop infrastructure. It provides details on the capital expenses, operational expenses, and indirect costs associated with each approach. The key findings are that VMware View provides significant cost savings over traditional desktops, with a total cost of ownership that is $500 lower per desktop annually and up to 60% savings on Windows 7 migration costs. VMware View customers also report 50-78% reductions in software deployment time, 57% lower helpdesk costs, and 58% less energy consumption compared to physical desktops.
Caching provides strategic benefits for secure web gateway investments by improving user experience and controlling bandwidth costs. With liberal internet policies, caching can satisfy users with faster response times while achieving stable annual bandwidth costs versus rising costs without caching. Specifically, 30% caching can deliver the same or reduced bandwidth compared to no caching despite higher internet usage. While unit bandwidth costs are decreasing, total budgetary outlays for bandwidth are increasing. Caching saves on these costs over 5 years and also improves performance for subsequent content requests and video streaming. This balances providing a good user experience with managing IT budgets.
- Palo Alto Networks builds next-generation firewalls that can identify over 1,100 applications regardless of port or protocol, restoring visibility and control to the firewall.
- Traditional firewalls cannot control applications effectively as applications change but firewalls have not. Next-generation firewalls from Palo Alto Networks address this by identifying applications, users, and scanning content.
- These firewalls provide comprehensive visibility and policy control over application access and functionality with high-performance processing capabilities.

The document discusses the security features of Aruba wireless networks. It states that wireless can be made more secure than wired networks if implemented properly. It describes Aruba's approach which includes: 1) authenticating users before allowing network access, 2) encrypting all wireless traffic between clients and controllers, and 3) using a stateful firewall to monitor wireless packets and enforce access policies based on user identity. This architecture is said to prevent eavesdropping, unauthorized access, and intrusions while allowing centralized management of distributed wireless networks.

Editor's Notes
The ProxySG is feature rich and enables the highest performance Web Gateway on the market today. Let’s review just a few of the benefits a separate proxy appliance can offer for the Enterprise beyond the firewall.<click> Besides performance, per user granular controls extended to the branch and mobile workforce (ProxyClient)<click> Dynamic Next Generation Content filtering support by a robust Cloud Security Service <click> Inline Anti-Virus protection scanning web downloads, encrypted traffic and looking behind user-credentials <click> IM control to block or limit IM usage which can carry malicious code and support Data Leakage <click> Peer to Peer control <click> Rich Reporting tools on a per user or per application basis across the enterprise (including remote workers) <click>Spyware and adware protection <click> Best in Class Wan Optimization Application Acceleration for all types of application – SLL, HTTP, CIFS, MAPI, FTP, Rich Media etc. <click> Granular content management via the Director configuration tool.
So let’s explain how Cloud Security Works in detail <click> First a user goes to access web content. If it’s a good site, ProxySG allows the access to the content. <click><click> So what happens when the user requests for unrated content? <click> The ProxySG running Web Filter then communicates to the cloud to request a rating. <click> The Cloud then uses either or all of the three methods to rate the site, either dynamically using the dynamic rating engine (DRTR) or human raters to return a rating. It then notices that this site has malware hosted on it <click> The rating is then provided in real-time to the ProxySG via WebFilter updates. The malware category is updated immediately. All ProxySGs in the enterprise are updated as well as ALL Blue Coat Customers.We have effectively controlled access to the known malware and pre-empted an infection.
