Presentation Topic: Virtualization – Failure to Plan = Planning to Fail
While virtualization offers organizations improved efficiencies, lower
energy costs and consolidation of data centers. Unfortunately, failing to
include security with your virtualization plans is nothing but planning to
endure virtual security breaches. The speaker will lead a discussion on the
different approaches that organizations are taking to secure their virtual
environments.
