Orchestrating multi-vendor virtual security functions using Intel Open Security Controller (OSC)

Organizations adopting Openstack need to secure production workload using virtualized security functions of their choice without being locked in. This is critical for apps handling sensitive data and have to comply with regulatory policies where basic iptables (Neutron Security Groups) is not enough. Using physical appliances is not an option as it requires inflexible complex network design and disrupts automation.

Intel OSC has evolved to tackle this very challenge and simplifies the task of managing security by providing a single plane of glass to orchestrate multiple security services within Openstack. In this session we will describe and demonstrate how the OSC can orchestrate multiple security services and enable security service function chaining based on the pre-defined security policy.
