VMware Carbon Black


Parts of the best webinars in the VMwrold2020 for me were moments that I learn more about  VMware Carbon Black. As I believe one of the best topics on most of this event's presentations is talking about the Carbon Black. It's all about analyzing not-recognized patterns and automated threat detection, VMware Carbon Black Threat Analysis Unit (TAU) came to use all latest advanced malware detection/prevention mechanism to increase the security and cover our safety. Via this cloud-based platform with the approach on system hardening and threat detection, VMware tries to focus on discovering every global attack, especially each of them that focuses on unknown vulnerabilities that lead to the zero-day attack. Because most of their anomaly behaviors are included with undetected/unfamiliar patterns. So TAU can help us in every corner of the world to protect our infrastructures against pollution/attack.


On Augest 07 2019 this cloud-native endpoint protection announce discovery of affecting more than 500k computers in the world with the well-known cryptomining campaign that steal system access information for possible sale on the dark web and publish a full report about this matter.

However, if you wish to see VMware Carbon Black global threat report for most of the countries in the last 12 months, especially with COVID-19's side effects and tendency to home working for the staff of companies, and observation increasing rate of cyberattacks and threats like malware, review the following info-graph:

Best online participations in VMworld 2020

 A week has passed since the end of the great VMware global event: VMworld 2020. Many perfect interviews, webinars, new features, and technologies were presented by VMware experts and managers. However Personally I enjoyed two interesting podcasts that I mentioned below:

1. East-West is the New Perimeter. The Cutting Edge of Datacenter Firewalling presented by Tom Gillis. In this video, he spoke about the benefits of utilization VMware Carbon Black TAU (Threat Analysis Unit) for controlling East-West traffics of the Datacenter and in front of known types of attacks like DDOS or SQL Injection, in comparison to the implementing hardware firewall appliances.




 

 

 

 

 

 

2. The "Future Ready" Security Operations Center presented by Tom Corn and he review five key challenges facing security operation teams and how the Carbon Black Platform will response to these matters and also spoke what are rules of VMware XDR (eXtended Detection and Response) in today virtualization security challenges.

 



 

 

 




Thanks to both of them and all other virtualization experts for creating this memorable event.

I will start a new journey soon ...
