Catbird

Implementation of technologies of virtualization makes impossible use of the traditional security policies depending on physical provision – the analyst of Gartner company Neil Makdonald at the annual conference "Gartner Security & Risk Management Summit" emphasized. About a half of workload of servers based on x86 in the world is virtualized now, however security aids do not meet the new requirements yet. Level of implementation of virtual security aids does not exceed several percent now, but by 2015, Gartner predicts, 40% of antiviruses and other similar means will be virtualized.
