Abstract - The implementation and use of virtualization offers big advantages, when used in an existing IT infrastructure. For example better utilization of server resources, reduction of power consumption and easy management of virtual infrastructures. The virtualization technology has been proven by the use of actual products. Due to this technology and the security features, the design and the implementation of a sensitive part of the IT infrastructure, a DMZ, is displayed. This thesis focuses on the security aspects of virtualization and its use for the virtualization of a DMZ. The current situation is that the DMZ always runs within a physical environment. With the installation of a virtual DMZ it is possible to use all the advantages of a virtual infrastructure. The aim of this thesis is to develop a system to implement a DMZ within a virtual infrastructure, which is at least as secure as a physical one. In order to understand the virtualization technology the theoretical basics are described. Their history and types of virtualization are evoked. Then comes the description of the system architecture of server virtualization and the available virtualization products on the market. Based on the features and functions of the virtualization products the VMWare Virtual Infrastructure 3 was chosen to implement the virtual DMZ. All the features and advantages of this product fully comply with the needs of a modern datacenter. The security measurements, and the comparison of the virtualized environment and a physical environment are discussed.

Keywords--- Aggregation, Hardware Independence, Isolation, Encapsulation, Performance Evaluation.
