Abstract: To ensure the safety and security of VMWare vCenter instances, this research paper aims to enhance the security by building upon the work known as the "Secure by Design Private Cloud Infrastructure." To enhance the security presented by the paper, this study dives deeper into securing vCenter a critical component within the VMWare private cloud ecosystem by leveraging API gateway technology. The aim is to intercept, analyse, and manipulate Application Program Interface commands (API) to filter malicious attacks on vCenter. This will provide a seamless way to secure vCenter, the main orchestrator of the private VMWare cloud, to mitigate the risk of an attacker ultimately break and disrupt critical applications hosted within the private cloud.
Keywords: private cloud, information technology, cyber security, vcenter, API.
