Altor Security

The 1st Purpose-Built Virtual Firewall Gets Better

Altor secures virtualized data centers with two purpose-built, patent pending technologies integrated into one virtual appliance. The Altor VF solution combines the first VMsafe stateful firewall with state-of-the-art virtual aware IDS to mitigate the greatest threats to virtualized applications and data.

Virtual Firewall Function


Altor security:

  • Eliminates “blind spots” in the enterprise network caused by poor visibility into communication between virtualization host servers and between VMs
  • Stops malware outbreaks in the virtual environment that are hard to detect and even harder to contain
  • Defeats attacks on the hypervisor
  • Prevents mixing higher trust workloads with lower trust workloads on a single host server, potentially resulting in privilege escalation
  • Enables successful compliance audits by providing the ability to monitor, report on, and filter virtual network traffic effectively

Altor VF is built with truly enterprise-class technologies that have set new standards that no other solution can match:

  • High Performance: uses new VMsafe FastPath technology to achieve over 10 times the throughput of last generation products
  • High Availability: enables deployment of virtualization security in environments that require the highest level of reliability from all critical components of the IT infrastructure
  • High Scalability: secures the service provider or enterprise internal cloud via automated agent provisioning, complete isolation of customer workloads, Cisco 1000V distributed vSwitch support, and distributed logging and flow reporting
