4 Every program and every privileged user of the system should operate using the least amount of privilege necessary to complete the job. Professor Jerome Saltzer, MIT Communications of the ACM #NET2896BU CONFIDENTIAL 4

13 DNE Value Propositions No Application Changes Leverages Microsegment Definition Integrates with Security Infrastructure Most customers will use application level encryption when dealing with sensitive data This places a burden on developers to have expertise in encryption controls It also leaves the management of keys and other sensitive material during execution in the hands of the developer DNE solves these challenges by building encryption directly into the infrastructure and requires no application changes DNE leverages the micro-segment context as an abstraction to determine who has access to which pieces of sensitive information As a result, DNE rule provisioning can be a simple drag and drop exercise, with the platform handling the hard work to distribute keys between nodes Application level encryption also has a nasty downside inline monitoring tools that rely on deep packet inspection no longer can function with the encrypted data With DNE, any security tool inserted via NSX will always have access to the unencrypted packet for inspection before the data protection layer is put in place 13

14 DNE Features/Benefits Feature Function Benefit Simple Rule Construction Encryption rules are aligned to existing grouping/inventory/switching embedded into NSX Customers can align encryption policies to application boundaries extremely simply Host-Enabled Encryption Encryption filter and keys live in the host Keys are not exposed to potentially compromised guest machines and developers are not required to implement encryption logic Built-in Key Management Integrated with NSX Security Service Chain Multi-HV Support Foundational key management elements (key rotation, revocation, etc) provided DNE is aware of the security services tied to any traffic flow and will provide unencrypted data to those services Encryption is provided across both ESX and KVM hosts Customers do not need to purchase or integrate a 3 rd party KM just to enable the feature Security middleware that requires packet info (next-gen firewalls, full packet capture analysis, etc) work seamlessly without requiring a break in the encryption chain Broader topology support CONFIDENTIAL 14
