New intuitive advanced policy capabilities integrated into HPE Aruba Networking Central to expand universal zero trust network access solutions

HPE Private Cloud Enterprise secures private and sovereign cloud infrastructure against emerging threats with air-gapped cloud management and expanded services

SAN FRANCISCO: RSA – Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE: HPE) today announced expansions of HPE Aruba Networking and HPE GreenLake cloud to help enterprises modernize secure connectivity and hybrid cloud operations by blending multi-layered and zero trust approaches to protect against threats. These new expansions include:

• New cloud-based access control security capabilities of HPE Aruba Networking Central, which accelerate enterprise-grade zero trust security by treating users, devices and applications as potential threats until verified, using robust policy capabilities to bolster protection.
• HPE Private Cloud Enterprise offers new differentiated threat-adaptive security that supports Digital Operations Resilience Act compliance (DORA) and temporarily disconnects from the public internet when network threats are detected.
• New cybersecurity services from HPE that optimize the design and implementation of security strategies for sovereign clouds and AI.

“With the rise in adoption of data-fueled AI applications, organizations are facing more sophisticated threats to anywhere data is stored, captured or transmitted,” said Phil Mottram, EVP and general manager, HPE Aruba Networking. “HPE’s security solutions deliver advanced protection to help organizations mitigate risk, defend against attacks and build resiliency.”

Powerful global networking protection, insights, and management

Additional HPE innovations include the new HPE Aruba Networking Central Network Access Control (NAC), now with precision cloud-based access controls to help enterprises advance universal zero trust network access (universal ZTNA) initiatives by enabling IT departments to more easily define and apply role-based policies to identify access for users and devices. These new cloud security capabilities add to existing functions of HPE Aruba Networking Central such as its Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) features, as well as AI-powered observability, and microsegmentation to reduce the impact of potential breaches.

New security features from HPE Aruba Networking include:

• Enhanced Policy Manager for new HPE Aruba Networking Central NAC improves precision access policies — such as application-to-role, role-to-subnet, and role-to-role — across the entire network, enforcing more detailed policies than before, ensuring consistent security and compliance edge-to-cloud.
• Tighter integration between HPE Aruba Networking Central and HPE OpsRamp broadens availability of third-party observability by expanding the ability to natively monitor third-party devices from vendors such as Cisco, Arista, and Juniper Networks. New HPE Aruba Networking Central application profiling, classification, and risk assessment abilities give enterprises the ability to establish application access policies based on risk preferences.
• New features from HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect SD-WAN include new SASE capabilities for tighter integration with HPE Aruba Networking SSE, and new Adaptive DDoS defense capabilities, which use machine learning to dynamically adjust DDoS defense mechanisms in real time. Also, a free license for HPE Aruba Networking Private Edge is included with every ZTNA customer.
• HPE Aruba Networking SSE now includes high-availability, high-performance mesh connectivity for highly advanced smart routing among global points of presence (PoPs) that improves reliability and resiliency and is designed to deliver zero downtime. Mesh connectivity dynamically routes traffic via the most expedient path possible, providing secure alternative data paths and automatic failure handling to ensure non-disruptive, always-on security without requiring intervention from enterprise IT departments.

HPE GreenLake cloud secures enterprises against emerging threats with new threat-adaptive security for private clouds and new cybersecurity services

To help enterprises protect against new cybersecurity threats and meet emerging regulations, new capabilities across HPE GreenLake reflect an ongoing commitment to enhance security, boost operational resilience, simplify compliance and reduce risk to give enterprises a competitive advantage. These new capabilities build on HPE’s comprehensive approach to cybersecurity and data protection, including data-focused solutions with HPE Zerto Software and HPE StoreOnce backup and recovery appliance.

• HPE Private Cloud Enterprise will offer new threat-adaptive security that temporarily disconnects from the public internet when network threats are detected. This differentiated capability acts as a “digital circuit breaker” and isolates critical data, operations, and infrastructure, minimizing potential impact. The system securely reconnects when the threat passes, ensuring business continuity and robust, dynamic protection. The new security solution addresses a key requirement of DORA and its impact on financial sector enterprises.
• Air-Gapped cloud management for sovereign environments and private clouds is now generally available through HPE Private Cloud Enterprise. HPE Private Cloud Enterprise with air-gapped management provides customers in regulated industries and government organizations with a cloud management experience on-prem without connecting to an external network. Unlike public cloud offerings, HPE Private Cloud Enterprise with air-gapped management is delivered by HPE security-cleared personnel and offers the ability to operate air-gapped in perpetuity without validation to an external cloud platform. Future support will enable enterprises to run cloud-native, Kubernetes-based workloads with air-gapped management.
• New HPE Cybersecurity Services for sovereign cloud provide cybersecurity experts who evaluate, adopt, and integrate sovereign security solutions into enterprise risk frameworks to ensure regulatory alignment and operational control.
• New AI-focused cybersecurity services from HPE support enterprises to embrace AI with robust governance, risk management and compliance and transform their cybersecurity operations into a highly sophisticated security operation that predicts and prevents traditional and emerging AI-enabled attacks.
• HPE offers unified observability and real-time threat detection that boosts system performance and cyber resilience with the general availability of the OpsRamp and CrowdStrike integration.

RSA 2025 marks the one-year anniversary of HPE’s signing of the CISA Secure by Design pledge and HPE continues to make significant progress with its comprehensive edge-to-cloud security vision. In addition to more than 2,200 security controls within HPE GreenLake, HPE deploys Zero Trust frameworks and designs technology to meet the requirements of CIS (Center for Internet Security), the CISA Secure by Design pledge, STIG (Security Technical Implementation Guides), and DORA.

Key advancements on HPE’s secure by design efforts and support for global and industry regulations include HPE Aruba Networking AI-based network detection and response (NDR), industry-leading ransomware protection with HPE Cyber Resilience Vault, and the new HPE ProLiant Compute Gen12 portfolio with HPE Integrated Lights Out (iLO) 7. These new HPE ProLiant Compute Gen12 servers deliver industry-leading silicon root of trust and the first server with post-quantum cryptography that meets the requirements for FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certification, a high-level cryptographic security standard.

HPE innovations will be on display at RSA Conference 2025, taking place April 28–May 1 in San Francisco. At booth #1261, HPE is showcasing next-level security with HPE Aruba Networking, HPE ProLiant Compute Gen12 servers, HPE Morpheus Enterprise Software, OpsRamp software, HPE Cyber Resilience Vault and HPE Zerto that complement network security controls for comprehensive protection against cyber threats like ransomware.
