Security Challenges in the Public Cloud
AWS introduces well-known advantages of greater appli-
cation development and deployment agility, scalability andflexibility. However, the security challenges you face in AWS
are exactly the same as those you face when protecting a
physical network.
These challenges include a lack of application visibility and
control, an inability to prevent cyberattacks, and cumbersome
policy update processes that can induce delays between
workload deployment and security policy updates. The
VM-Series for AWS solves these challenges, enabling you to:
• Identify and control applications traversing your AWS
deployment, regardless of which ports they may use.
• Determine who should be allowed to use the applications,
and grant access based on need and credentials.• Stop malware from gaining access to, and moving laterally
(east-west) within the cloud.
• Extend perimeter protection mechanisms to all users and
devices, regardless of location.
• Simplify management and minimize the security policy lag
as virtual workloads change.
The VM-Series for AWS protects your workloads and data
with the same next-generation firewall and advanced
threat prevention features that are available in our security
appliances, allowing you to securely move to the cloud.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is fueling an evolutionwithin today’s data centers, enabling you to rapidly de-velop, deploy and manage new applications on a globalscale. The VM-Series for AWS enables you to protectyour applications and data in AWS with next-generationfirewall and threat prevention features.
