About Event

Modern infrastructure built on VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) benefits from powerful workload and network protections like vDefend and continuous compliance enforcement. However, these controls don’t address the hypervisor itself—where attacks ultimately converge.

Join Vali Cyber’s CTO & Co-founder, Austin Gadient, for this virtual session where he will break down where VCF secures your environment, where gaps remain, and how Vali Cyber’s ZeroLock fills them with preemptive, runtime protection at the hypervisor—stopping threats before they impact workloads and enabling full-stack defense.

Then, join Vali Cyber and your VMUG colleagues for a vBeers event at 6 PM hosted by Vali Cyber at Bar Gazon in Ghent to network, talk shop, and (of course) have a beer. Register here: https://vmug.com/events/57739012206

About Vali Cyber | valicyber.com
Vali Cyber® secures where attacks have the most impact: mission-critical systems. While most defenses focus on endpoints, Vali Cyber identified Linux and hypervisors as critical yet underprotected. Built for this reality, ZeroLock® delivers preemptive security with CLI-MFA, exploit prevention, deep hypervisor visibility, and AI-driven behavioral detection. By operating at the hypervisor layer, ZeroLock stops threats in real time without performance impact or added overhead. If incidents occur, automated rollback restores workloads in seconds, ensuring uptime. Recognized by Gartner as a Key Startup in Security Software, Vali Cyber leads by protecting the foundation of modern infrastructure others overlook.
