UPDATED SERVICES
TunHub for VMware vCenter
Cloudaware extends Breeze functionality to support vulnerability scanning of VMware vCenter virtual machines. VMware vCenter doesn't have metadata to retrieve the unique id required for mapping VMs that need to be scanned and ids of Breeze agents installed on those machines. By employing the field 'identityBiosUuid', Cloudaware matches vCenter VMs and Breeze agents ids to simplify Breeze deployment in vCenter and scanning of vCenter VMs at scale.
