Can Virtualization Solve Anti-Leak Security?

Nowadays, more and more customers who have the need for anti-leakage are paying attention to virtualization and want to use virtualization to replace traditional encryption and anti-leakage software, but is virtualization really that good? Can it really solve the enterprise's need for anti-leakage? Today, I will briefly explain the many problems and weaknesses that
virtualization will encounter in enterprise anti-leakage: the disadvantages of virtualization:
1. The cost is expensive, and cost
reduction is the first benefit that many people bring to desktop virtualization. reaction, but is it really so? You can count, desktop virtualization is not free, and the initial cost is not low. To carry out the transformation of the infrastructure, the change of the IT structure, the requirements for the relevant technical personnel are also higher, and additional costs related to virtualization are required. Software and License Fees. If you purchase genuine operating systems and application software, these authorizations are also quite a lot, just like normal physical machines.
2. High
maintenance Although the number of maintenance technicians is reduced, the skills are higher, and the maintenance cost may be several times or even more than before. When a problem occurs with a virtual machine, the technician needs to judge that the virtual machine itself The problem is still the underlying problem, which increases the complexity. Single point of failure is a problem that virtualization has to face. Users are often unable to achieve storage redundancy considering various factors of cost and output, so data is placed on one storage, storage crash or server damage will bring disasters sexual consequences.
3. High requirements for server performance The number of use points of the
client determines the performance of the server. A virtualized server needs to run multiple clients on it, which will be a serious test for the network load and server load of the server. Large-scale drawing design, AutoCAD, ProE, SolidWorks and other software that consumes a lot of resources will be a great test. If you want to run stably and smoothly, you must strengthen the server configuration, and the budget will be higher and higher, otherwise it will not affect the work of employees. Development will have a huge impact.
4. Cloud Platform Leakage Risk
One of the problems that the employee client cannot escape is the need to access the Internet. If the Internet is not connected, it will also cause a lot of inconvenience, such as the need to check data, communicate with the outside world, and so on. In this case, there will be a risk of leakage. The data is on the virtualized client, and employees can transfer the data at will, resulting in data leakage, which is also a point that virtualization cannot protect against online leakage.
5. Risk of hardware tuning leaks
Regarding peripheral connections, some virtualizations allow peripherals to be connected, while others may not allow access to peripherals across the board. But for customers who have peripheral debugging requirements, it is impossible not to allow access to peripherals, which will directly affect normal work. If peripherals are allowed to be used, there will be a problem, that is, the core data In case of leakage, employees can directly send out the information during the debugging process.

To sum up, enterprises may inevitably choose virtualization in the development of informatization, but virtualization is only a product in the process of enterprise informatization, not a specific product for anti-leakage. Users should not use virtualization when selecting models. The idea of ​​solving the need for anti-leakage at the same time, because the orientation of the software is different, this will form a misunderstanding in the selection, which will have a greater impact on future use.
