Re: Securing the Cloud
@mhhf1ve  security is never ending problems, I'm sure in the new year we gonna hear it more and more about security breaches and e.t. as even will all security changes and improvments - hackers do get smarter/educated...

Re: Securing the Cloud
Security is always a moving target as things change and get patched and automated and virtualized, etc. I would hope things always improve and get more secure -- the potential is there. But sometimes it doesn't seem that way when we hear about attacks and breaches ever more frequently.

Re: Securing the Cloud
This was covered in some of the other security Q&As, but in a nutshell virtualization introduces more moving parts (VMs, containers, etc.) than traditional networks. The simple version is that network operators would have more visability -- even of the moving parts -- in virtualzied networks to see/stop attacks. The consensus from the other Q&As is that virtualzied networks have the potential to be more secure.

Re: Securing the Cloud
> "could this be a more secure environment than a manual non-virtualized environment?"

How does one quantify "more secure" for virtualized vs traditional networking? In one sense, keeping things simple makes things more secure by not introducing complications or automation that could affect large segments of a network. I'm just curious how anyone really justifies their assertions that X is more secure than Y -- without resorting to "number of attacks per time" or other after-the-fact stats.

Securing the Cloud
CORD looks to be one of the first to provide a more secure cloud, thanks to NFV/SDN. This is a great example of integrating the benefits of new technology with existing technology. The automation and security from SDN/NFV meshes well with cloud functions and accesibility.

Re: Cord & Security
<As users start to use the service they may want to control of individual sessions. We think in terms of a configuration time on service-wide basis and control on a per-user per-subscriber basis.> that makes it sound very individualized. Is it more so than offerings from other companies?

Cord & Security
CORD/Central Office Rearchitecture as a Datacenter and Security are two unique and distinctive things. Cord is related to data technology etc. We will always need security when we are dealing with something that is new and advanced and in my mind I was thinking how the NFV/Network Function Virtualization fit into all of this. I guess they are all connected and need each other or they can bring something different add add more or better to what they already have.
