In this show, we cover the new ASA 1000V and how this security family represents the oldest yet most future ready security platform.
What is the relevance of a Firewall in today’s modern world where security must encompass every part of increasingly distributed operations? What is really meant by a Cloud Ready Firewall? What the heck is this new ‘virtual ASA’…didn’t we already have the Virtual Security Gateway? Perhaps its all just marketing hype…

In my estimation, the cloud is overhyped in the short run, but underestimated in the long run. Every enterprise is now exploring some aspect of a cloud based service model – whether this represents you now or in the future, the notion of a flexible security solution remains important. Incredible advances for data center infrastructure with the flexibility and speed enabled by the virtualized tools we are all now using – MUST be accompanied by equally capable security tools.
The original maxim still rings true: Security must be addressed at every layer.
