Altor is giving customers unprecedented visibility into and granular control over virtual network traffic. Purpose-built for virtual environments, its Altor VF virtual firewall is dramatically improving the security of virtual servers in data centers while reducing administrative overhead. The award winning technology has been architected to support multiple virtualization platforms from vendors such as VMware, Microsoft, and Citrix. Multi-platform support will allow enterprises to use whatever virtualization products they need, now and in the future. Altor Networks’ pioneering innovations include: Enforcing a rule-based security policy on a single VM or group of VMs Securing VMs during VMotion events, without dropping connections Enabling low cost intrusion detection in the virtual network by mirroring selected traffic to external devices Enforcing a default policy automatically on newly created or “rogue” VMs
