Tripwire® Enterprise software ensures configuration control across the VMware ESX server hypervisor, as well as individual virtual machines and their physical counterparts. Tripwire Enterprise for VMware ESX provides out-of-the-box assessment tests based on both the Center for Internet Security (CIS) security policies and the VMware Infrastructure 3 Security Hardening guidelines—policies that proactively identify vulnerabilities due to misconfiguration within VMware ESX. Once the hypervisor is in a known and trusted state, Tripwire keeps it there through continuous change auditing that detects subsequent changes.
- Single point of control - Powerful policy-based configuration control across virtual and physical environments
- Assess and validate configurations - Proactively assess and remediate configuration drift to achieve a known & trusted state
- Detect all changes - Continuously monitor, reconcile and audit all configuration changes to attain compliance
While Tripwire ConfigCheck rapidly assesses the configuration settings of individual VMware ESX hypervisors, providing visibility into misconfigurations, in order to gain continuous configuration control an organization can opt for Tripwire Enterprise, which addresses configuration risks throughout the entire virtual and physical IT infrastructure.
