Do you know what your VMs are doing? With Altor, the answer is a resounding YES! Altor’s virtualization security monitoring software integrates deeply within the virtualized environment for complete visibility and awareness of the applications, services, virtual machines, and any changes to the overall environment. With Altor, administrators can closely monitor the network for unwanted or gratuitous traffic and the presence of malware. They can also use Altor’s virtualization security monitoring technology to keep a close watch on virtual machine configurations, their installed OS versions, applications, services, and virtual network connectivity settings.
The information is put forth in interactive dashboards that summarize virtualization security monitoring findings and provide clickthrough detail for rapid risk identification and risk mitigation. The rich detail available, which is updated to reflect virtualized environment changes as they happen, includes:
- A complete inventory of virtual machines, virtual machine groupings, and their security state
- A comprehensive list of all applications installed on VMs, including operating system patch levels and application versions
- A list of intrusion detection alerts of all severity types, the alert sources and mitigation information
- Overall compliance assessment, as well as the state of each VM relative to the desired state or policy
