As a cloud customer, you’re responsible for securing your workloads, so it is critical that you are familiar with the available security solutions and how to properly utilize them to secure your workloads. Our latest additions to security tutorials will help you Secure your Oracle Cloud VMware Solution workloads with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Network Firewall.
This tutorial covers how you can use OCI Network Firewall to secure your workloads running in an Oracle Cloud VMware Solution. Oracle Cloud VMware Solution enables you to create and manage VMware software-defined data centers (SDDCs) in OCI.
You can deploy OCI Network Firewall as a distributed model or a transit model. In this tutorial, we deploy a transit model with the network firewall in the hub virtual cloud network (VCN) and the Oracle Cloud VMware Solution SDDC in a spoke VCN. Using the intra-VCN and ingress routing capabilities of OCI Networking, you can inspect the traffic moving through Network Firewall running in the hub VCN.
To learn more about the OCI Network Firewall capabilities, you can also read the blog Defense in Depth, Layering using OCI Network Firewall by Troy Levin.
Using the tutorial, you get hands-on experience how you can use the OCI Network Firewall solution to help secure your workloads running in Oracle Cloud VMware Solution SDDC environment and reap the following benefits:
Although this tutorial showcases OCI Network Firewall, you can apply most of the concepts to any other third-party appliance, such as Fortinet, Palo Alto Networks, Cisco, Check Point, and more. Work with the specific vendor or partner to ensure that they support your chosen appliance.
