Abstract
Techniques for providing network traffic security in a virtualized environment are described. A threat aware controller uses a threat feed provided by a threat intelligence service to establish a threat detection engine on virtual switches. The threat aware controller and threat detection engine work together to detect any anomalous or malicious behavior of network traffic on the virtual switch and established virtual network functions to quickly detect, verify, and isolate network threats.
