Coverage of this has been EVERYWHERE. Look for something in the next day or so. Thanks for reading! Mike,

Looks like they are getting ready for a battle with Microsoft. http://windowsitpro.com/article/articleid/99833/vmware-esxi-hypervisor-becomes-a-free-download.html Scott,

The biggest part of our new release comes from visualizing, monitoring, auditing, and *controlling* the virtual infrastructure in combination with our VSA product's ability to do the same for the virtual network. I'm not aware of any other product set that does this today. With Reflex VSC, security events can be shown in context of the impacted guest or line of business application as well as being able to track infrastructure change events and report on the who, what, when for any security or infrastructure change event. Reflex is focused on providing security and control by visualizing and monitoring both the network *and* the infrastructure and then allowing customers to apply policy (business or security) based on that knowledge. Check our website for more details or let me know if you would like to see for yourself. -Mike Wronski VP, Product Management for Reflex Security Scott, I wanted to clarify something about your note on Reflex’s VSC product.

No, I didn't get into trouble for blogging about running Citrix products on top of a competitor's product. I am still blogging. And I hope the readers find my blogs informational. Although it is a Citrix hosted blog, the opinions expressed in my blogs are personal. Citrix values customer choice. For example our XenDesktop products support XenServer,Vmware products and Microsoft products. It makes it easier for me to share information with others on my blog. I appreciate your comments and suggestions. Regards, Ray Yang Hi Scott,
