Network Security Virtualization (NSX) Platform
Client Context
Enterprise Banking - Micro-segmentation Security
Role
Technical Product Specialist
Technological Stack
VMware NSX / vRNI / vRLI
The Challenge
The client needed clearer visibility into East-West data center traffic to detect lateral movement and ransomware activity. Their legacy infrastructure could not support practical micro-segmentation at scale.
The Solution
Implemented VMware NSX Security for Distributed Firewall and micro-segmentation, integrated vRealize Network Insight for traffic-flow visibility, and used vRealize Log Insight for centralized security analytics. Validated the design with controlled malware-attack simulations.
Impact & Results
"100% East-West traffic visibility achieved"
"Threat detection time reduced from days to minutes"
"Micro-segmentation successfully isolated critical workloads without downtime"
