New cloud services demand new security solutions. The evolving cloud landscape is paving the way for modern and more sophisticated technology. Among the advancing infrastructure, the security features need to upgrade as well. The traditional security functions such as firewall and other endpoint protection have turned rather incapable to face the cumbersome challenges. Cloud service providers need to adopt new technologies by upgrading the conventional safety components that can offer better protection against the uncertainty.

Read on to find out the must-have security features for the next-gen cloud:

Virtual Security Service

If you require application-level security and complete virtualized firewalls, virtual services can be the right fit. It gives direct access and control to incoming, outgoing and intra-VM traffic that lets you have a comprehensive insight to the traffic flow. In addition, it also provides optimized anti-virus software and even round-the-clock surveillance.

Clientless Security

Clientless protection is directly connected with the basic hypervisor that enhances the capability of the virtual environment to perform faster scans and also organize the intrusion detection. The best part being, you can do all the aforementioned operations without compromising the performance.

Consolidating network traffic with security elements

Aside from developing multi-tenant and application-centric protection, clients can monitor and manage the intra-VM network traffic. When you integrate the traffic with security features, you not only safeguard the networks, but maintain the availability of the security layers. So even you're processing a live VM migration, you'll do it safely because the security tends to stay on and keep functioning.

Management and direct visibility

In order to ensure the efficiency of the security platform, data center providers need to get a complete management and visibility feature. In addition to all the crucial aspects of next-gen security, management is capable of creating unified visibility. Besides, it also gives you the potentiality to analyze and audit the logs, while also keep a check on the entire security infrastructure. Amalgamating management with the virtual environment allow the IT operators to remain proactive and constantly monitor the security boundaries.

Next-gen endpoint security for cloud clients

Next-gen security options offered by some companies take over most conventional techniques with the modern approaches. An example of one such technology is the machine-learning algorithm that audits a host of file attributes to identify to what extend a specific document is corrupted. What makes it different from the traditional techniques is its ability of analyzing and identifying new and hidden threats that is quiet not possible with the counterpart.

By implementing the security features, you'll create a more distributed environment that can support complex workloads. After upgrading your cloud and virtual environment with new, advanced solutions, you’ll also require to add more powerful, next-gen safety that would improve end-user experience, provide better control and ultimately boost overall performance.
