Nutanix Security Framework

Nutanix has built a security framework at three levels for enterprise cloud environments. Security is a foundational aspect of product design at Nutanix starting with security hardening practices (like data-at-rest encryption, comprehensive access controls, etc.) built into the enterprise cloud platform. Industry best practices and government standards are incorporated (ex. NSA Suite B COMMON CRITERIA EAL2+ FIPS 140-2 Validated Encryption ISO 27001 Certified along with SP800-53 guidelines) into an automated configuration monitoring and self-healing process that supports compliance goals. Strict tests for common vulnerabilities and frequent patch releases minimizes risk of data breaches. Inconsistencies are logged and reverted to the baseline ensuring consistency of security configuration.

Nutanix Flow delivers advanced networking and security services inside the data center, providing applicationcentric visibility and protection from network threats. Networks and applications can easily be segmented via a software-defined policy without any additional hardware or complex network configurations.
