Learn HowWhat Are the Key Use Cases for NSX?
Adopt Zero-Trust Security
Lock down critical apps, create a logical DMZ in software, and reduce the attack surface of a virtual desktop environment using the segmentation capabilities in NSX. Zero-trust security is now attainable and efficient in private and public cloud environments.
More on Micro-Segmentation
Speed Up Delivery of Networking and Security
Accelerate application delivery by leveraging blueprints to automate the provisioning and management of networking and security services consistently across all sites and clouds — or by exposing the
infrastructure as code.
