Overview: According to an InformationWeek survey, increasing complexity remains the single biggest security challenge faced by today’s IT organizations. As IT innovation, regulatory compliance, and new and flexible business methods introduce new performance and security requirements, the complexity of the network increases, as does the cost of managing it. IBM’s Joshua Corman presents his take on the disruptive innovation of virtualization, and the types of virtualization that can be implemented. He discusses the benefits of virtualization, as well as priorities when taking on a virtualization project. However, Corman contends that IT is still IT, and security is still security, virtualized or not. Before taking on any virtualization project, take a look at Corman’s detailed examination of the threat landscape, points of exposure, and other security considerations.
