    Hello,

    maybe I didn't search enough but does someone knows if there is a guide like the "vsphere hardening guide" available for NSX? 
    I'm asked to do some technical specification for this customer and at least a basis of VMware / Broadcom best practices on how configured certain paramenters/password/logins/logggin and so on will be great to start.

    Best I can find is the NSX section in here Security and Compliance Configuration for VMware Cloud Foundation 5.2 - VMware Cloud Foundation 5.2

    Hi Giovanni,

    I am not aware of anything very close to the vSphere Hardening Guide in regard to NSX (also, the Hardening Guide for vSphere changed A LOT and its more of a compliance check if the settings are still in their default/secure mode).

    May these docs/links will help you on your way:

    https://nsx.techzone.vmware.com/resource/nsx-security-reference-design-guide
