[ESET Security Forum 39]

ESET Virtualization Security 1.6.9 for VMware NSX has been released and is available to download.

ESET Virtualization Security for VMware NSX natively supports NSX automation, micro-segmentation and automatic task execution that automatically moves infected machines to a different micro-segment to prevent the spread of malware, and then executes scanning. Once ESET Virtualization Security proves that a machine is clean, it is returned to its original place.
