Who this book is for

This book is intended for the virtualization professional who is experienced with VMware vSphere setup and configuration, but who hasn't had the opportunity to investigate securing the environment properly.

This book covers all the major security options for vSphere 5.5 deployment in a modular fashion where only the recipe pertaining to the task is required. In other words, the book is not meant to be read from cover to cover, but rather used as a toolkit for specific tasks and scenarios in the virtualization infrastructure environment.
