If you are either assessing the transition to a virtualized solutionor have already integrated a solution, don't miss this opportunity to learn how to leverage this powerful technology without sacrificing security. This workshop will cover:
• Best practices to correctly configure the virtual solution
• How to assess and respond to performance and scalability challenges
• What security risks are introduced and how to mitigate them
