A combination of increasing risks from network security attacks and the need for data center consolidation is causing data center managers to adopt a "defense in-depth" integrated approach to the data center network infrastructure.
The Enterprise Data Center Architecture offers security strategies, technologies, and products designed to prevent or contain attacks from both within and outside the enterprise. Integrated security technologies, including secure connectivity, threat defense, and trust and identity management systems, create a self-defending network, and are based on the principle of ensuring that each application and server environment can realize a secure virtual zone across the consolidated IP, storage, and interconnect data center networking infrastructure.
