Lesson 17: PCI - linking vulnerabilities to business applications
Firewall Management 201: Lesson 17 PCI-DSS 3.2 regulation requirement 6.1 mandates that organizations establish a process for identifying security vulnerabilities on the servers that are within the scope of PCI. In this new lesson, Professor Wool explains how to address this requirement by presenting vulnerability data by both the servers and the by business processes that rely on each server. He discusses why this method is important and how it allows companies to achieve compliance while ensuring ongoing business operations.

Lesson 2: Tips on how to create filtering policies for NSX
Network Security for VMware NSX: Lesson 2 When setting up an NSX data center you need to write filtering policies for any traffic that goes into an NSX data center, exits from it, or moves between different servers inside the NSX data center. In this lesson, Professor Wool recommends a multi-stage process to help users write secure and effective policies for east East-West traffic.

VMware’s NSX enables datacenter owners to secure East-West traffic using filtering policies that are enforced by the VMware infrastructure. However, migrating from existing traditional filtering technologies to VMware NSX can be a daunting task. In this lesson Professor will discuss why it’s important to understand the motivations for a migration to NSX in order to successfully plan and implement the actual migration to the VMware NSX platform.

Lesson 4: Using next generation firewalls for cyber threat prevention
Next Generation Firewalls: Lesson 4 As part of the blacklisting approach to application security, most NGFW vendors now offer their customers a subscription based service that provides periodic updates to firewall definitions and signatures for a great number of applications especially the malicious ones. In this lesson, Professor Wool discusses the pros and cons of this offering for cyber threat prevention. It also discusses the limitations of this service when home-grown applications are deployed in the enterprise, and provides a recommendation on how to solve this problem.
