vSRX

Overview

Data centers increasingly rely on server virtualization to deliver services faster and more efficiently than ever before. But virtualization introduces a new set of security risks. Network and security professionals must perform a delicate balancing act, delivering the benefits of virtualization and cloud technologies without undermining the security of the organization.

This challenge can only be met by a new breed of security solutions that keep pace with evolving threats while matching the agility and scalability of virtualized and cloud environments—without sacrificing reliability, visibility or control.
