VMware recently announced vSphere 6.5, the latest version of its industry-leading virtualization platform. This new release of vSphere features a dramatically simplified experience, comprehensive built-in security, and significant enhancements to vSAN and Virtual Volumes.
Because there is so much to cover in vSphere 6.5 the Virtually Speaking Podcast decided to dissect it into a multi-part series starting with vSphere Security. This week Mike Foley joins us to cover some of the security enhancements of 6.5 including VM encryption, Secure boot for ESX and VMs and actionable logging. And if that isn’t enough Mike even provided some musical entertainment for your listening pleasure. Enjoy!
