Technologies for secure personalization of a security monitoring virtual network function (VNF) in a network functions virtualization (NFV) architecture include various security monitoring components, including a NFV security services controller, a VNF manager, and a security monitoring VNF. The security monitoring VNF is configured to receive provisioning data from the NFV security services controller and perform a mutually authenticated key exchange procedure using at least a portion of the provisioning data to establish a secure communication path between the security monitoring VNF and a VNF manager. The security monitoring VNF is further configured to receive personalization data from the VNF manager via the secure communication path and perform a personalization operation to configure one or more functions of the security monitoring VNF based on the personalization data. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
