Abstract

Technologies for performing security monitoring services of a network functions virtualization (NFV) security architecture that includes an NVF security services controller and one or more NFV security services agents. The NFV security services controller is configured to transmit a security monitoring policy to the NFV security services agents and enforce the security monitoring policy at the NFV security services agents. The NFV security services agents are configured to monitor telemetry data and package at least a portion of the telemetry for transmission to an NFV security monitoring analytics system of the NFV security architecture for security threat analysis. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
