Vali Cyber, a next-generation provider of Linux cybersecurity solutions, has announced the early access program for its autonomous zero-trust security platform, ZeroLock, which has now been expanded to protect ESXi hypervisors. This is significant as there is currently no other runtime security available for ESXi. This move comes at a time when attacks on ESXi servers are on the rise, with over 1,000 attacks in 2022 compared to just two in 2020. The ZeroLock platform combines attack prevention using features such as virtual patching and SSH multifactor authentication with AI-behavioral detection and automated file rollback to provide multilayered protection from attacks like ransomware. ZeroLock for ESXi is currently available for early access on hypervisors running 6.7+, with support for earlier versions available upon request.
