EMC collaborates with VMware and Intel to deliver Secure Infrastructure

RSA has unveiled a shared vision with Intel Corporation and VMware, Inc. for building a more secure, transparent and accountable infrastructure for business-critical cloud services. This vision, leveraging technology and expertise from EMC’s RSA Security Division as well as from Intel and VMware, is described in a newly released RSA Security Brief titled “Infrastructure Security: Getting to the Bottom of Compliance in the Cloud” and is demonstrated through an innovative proof of concept which debuted at this week’s RSA Conference in San Francisco.   

Pat Gelsinger, President & Chief Operating Officer, EMC Information Infrastructure Products, said, “Today, most organizations have little to no visibility into what is occurring within the infrastructure layers of clouds, making it impossible to verify their security. Together, our companies are demonstrating that internal and external clouds can be visible, measurable and reportable for the secure management of a company’s most important business processes.”

RSA, Intel, VMware and GRC experts from Archer Technologies have demonstrated a vision for a trusted cloud infrastructure that promises to deliver significant operational benefits for organizations and service providers running private clouds. This concept, comprising a hardware root of trust, secure virtualization environment, security information and event management and GRC management software, provides truly unprecedented visibility into actual conditions within the bottommost layers of the cloud.
