VMSafe is announced!

29Feb08

For those that have been paying attention, this announcement is not a surprise.  VMWare has been partnering with AV vendors lately.  Rumblings have also been released about opening things up a bit by providing API’s for vendors to tap into the hypervisor to handle security events realtime.  Cool huh!

Well this week at VMworld Europe, VMSafe was officially announced.  I could give you the details and breakdown of the technology but instead I am going to point you to another blog.  Chris Hoff has written a great post on the topic so I recommend you check it out.

I think this is a huge step in the right direction for VM security.  Look forward to many more posts in the area to come.
