Course Description
Enterprise Hyper-V Security: Ransomware Protection & Hardening
Welcome to Enterprise Hyper-V Security: Ransomware Protection & Hardening from Labs Hands On, presented by Vikas Singh.
Ransomware is a major security threat to enterprise IT infrastructure. Virtualization platforms such as Microsoft Hyper-V host critical business workloads, making it essential to protect the hypervisor, virtual machines, storage, and management infrastructure.
This practical course focuses on security hardening strategies for Microsoft Hyper-V environments. You will explore how to strengthen Hyper-V infrastructure using encryption, virtual machine security features, and network isolation.
Through practical demonstrations and architecture discussions, you will learn about BitLocker Drive Encryption, Secure Boot, virtual Trusted Platform Module (vTPM), and isolated network design.
You will also understand how these security controls fit into a broader defense-in-depth strategy to reduce the risk and potential impact of ransomware attacks.
