UNIFORM SECURITY POLICIES ACROSS CLOUDS
With Nutanix Calm, you can establish security policies for
every application and ensure that those policies are applied
uniformly both on-premises and in the cloud. This ensures
policies are applied consistently and eliminates hours of
tedious manual security configuration and verification tasks.
The result is better security with far less effort.
Thanks to the hybrid-cloud management capabilities of
Calm, you can guarantee that your applications always have
the right profiles attached, export the logs for inspection
or collection, and audit exactly who did what when to
understand why something fell out of policy.
ENCRYPTION
Data-at-rest encryption is delivered through self-encrypting
drives (SED) that are factory-installed in Nutanix hardware
and software based encryption. This provides strong data
protection by encrypting user and application data for FIPS
140-2 Level 2 compliance.
These security mechanisms enable compliance with data-
at-rest encryption requirements set forth in HIPAA, PCI DSS,
and SOX standards.
SECURITY DEVELOPMENT LIFECYCLE
Nutanix uses a unique, well-defined Security Development
Lifecycle (SecDL) to incorporate security into every step
of the software development process, from design and
development to testing and hardening. Embedding security
awareness into the software lifecycle ensures that all soft-
ware releases are secure, without slowing down the overall
development process.
