Virtualization Team vs. Security Team: It is important to remove the “vs.”!

Rob Randell, one of our security specialists here at VMware, is guest-posting over at Mike D's blog. (Guys, you're welcome over here as well.)

Unfortunately, very often this situation is the exception and not the rule. Many of the customers that I talk to are only talking to me because they have started a widescale deployment of VMware VI and the security team gets wind of it once it is well underway or worse some sort of audit is initiated (PCI, Sarbox, HIPAA, etc…). At this point the entire architecture needs to be reviewed and very often rearchitected to meet the necessary security and audit requirements. See the following article for a great example of this.

(Emphasis mine.) Sounds like a nightmare, so my guess is that you don't want that to happen to you. Always consult your friendly neighborhood security team first.

Join the VMware Referral Program

Save 10% on select VMware products!

We're pleased to announce a new VMware Referral Program that gives you rewards when you recommend VMware products to others. You can participate even without a blog or website, as we give you the tools to send custom emails or bug your friends on social networks, or if you do have a blog, you can get a spiffy widget like you see on the right, and you can customize what it says. (All rewards through this particular widget go to the Red Cross, by the way.)

You get $10 credit (which can go straight to your PayPal account or to a gift card or charity) every time two VMware Store purchases are made from your referrals. (That $10 number tells me that we expect to moving more copies of Fusion and Workstation than VI Enterprise through this referral, but go crazy selling ESX if that's what you're into.) In any case, it's a great way to spread the word about the solutions you use every day that make your life easier and got you your last promotion.

So sign up now -- it takes 3 minutes to get started.

Thank you very much, and I hope you make a bunch of dough.
