The conventional approach to Cloud Governance, Risk and Compliance treats the virtualization layer as just another set of technologies, a shim between operating system and the hardware components. The hypervisor and its control infrastructure is analyzed in terms of additional threats and corresponding controls and mitigation strategies.

In Fact the virtualization layer mirrors all other components. It is not another layer. It allows to redefine network and storage mappings across the whole cloud. Understanding what is virtually connected to what is as important as knowing in which data center servers are located. Visibility into the virtual infrastructure becomes key.

vPanorama is the only solution that starts with the virtualization layer and builds its compliance logic from a virtualized standpoint.
