How Companies Protect Their Apps and Data with NSX Service-defined Firewall
The cloud and virtual workers have expanded the number of endpoints at risk of cyber-attack. One infected endpoint will spread quickly across the network.
To stop the rapid spread of threats, IT security needs to police the lateral movements of threats between devices, systems and environments. East-west firewalling is a crucial new security defense strategy. VMware Service-defined Firewall (SDFW), a stateful layer 7 firewall, gives organizations visibility into and control over east-west traffic.

The NSX Service-defined Firewall (SDFW) is a stateful layer 7 firewall that provides organizations with visibility and control over east-west traffic within their networks. It allows for the implementation of network segmentation and granular security policies without requiring changes to the existing network infrastructure. This software-defined approach helps prevent the lateral spread of threats, supports compliance requirements, and enhances overall security posture.
How does NSX SDFW improve operational efficiency?
NSX SDFW enhances operational efficiency by automating security policy management and reducing the complexity associated with traditional hardware-based firewalls. Organizations have reported significant reductions in development cycles—such as cutting down from one month to just one week—allowing them to respond more quickly to customer demands while maintaining consistent security across various infrastructures.
What are the compliance benefits of using NSX SDFW?
The NSX Service-defined Firewall helps organizations meet compliance requirements by enabling granular policy enforcement and segmentation of sensitive data. This is particularly important for industries like finance and healthcare, where regulations such as PCI-DSS and HIPAA must be adhered to. By providing a secure environment for data handling and automating compliance processes, NSX SDFW reduces the risk of non-compliance and associated penalties.
