Shared Responsibility
VMware Cloud
services use a
shared responsibility model for security. This model achieves trusted security through the
partnership of shared responsibilities between customers, VMware, and the infrastructure as
a service (IaaS) providers. This matrix of responsibility ensures a higher security model
and eliminates failure.The IaaS providers ensure that there is
security for the underlying physical infrastructure of the data center across all
regions and availability zones that runs the management layer. VMware also ensures
security of the management layer. As a customer, you can continue to own and operate the
security and compliance of the actual workloads by extending your policies and controls
to
VMware Cloud on Dell
installations. Also, you are responsible for the physical security of the VMware Cloud on Dell
on-premises rack.Shared Responsibility Security
