Zero Trust Access and Cloud Security Enhancements

HPE Aruba Networking Central has introduced new cloud-based access control features designed to accelerate zero trust network security. Users, devices, and applications are treated as potential threats until verified, enforcing role-based policies that enhance protection at the edge and in the cloud. This approach is aligned with zero-trust principles, ensuring that every entity is authenticated before being granted access.

Threat-Adaptive Security for Private Clouds

HPE has also rolled out threat-adaptive security features within HPE GreenLake for private cloud environments. A notable addition is the "digital circuit breaker" functionality that disconnects infrastructure from the public internet upon threat detection. This feature is particularly beneficial for enterprises that need to comply with regulatory frameworks such as the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA).

HPE's air-gapped cloud management enables organizations in regulated sectors to manage their private cloud infrastructure without any reliance on external networks, ensuring a high level of data sovereignty.

Policy-Based Controls in Aruba Networking Central

Aruba Networking Central has introduced cloud-based policy tools that enforce zero-trust principles effectively. Users are treated as untrusted until authenticated, with granular policies that govern access from the edge to the data center. These enhancements are integrated seamlessly with existing features such as intrusion detection and prevention.

AI Protection and Enhanced Monitoring

HPE has made strides in AI protection, allowing for precise access control based on user roles and software behavior. Integration with HPE's OpsRamp platform extends monitoring capabilities to third-party devices, improving risk assessment and application profiling.

Offline Private Cloud Options

HPE's new features for private cloud solutions focus on security and compliance for organizations facing data sovereignty restrictions. The "digital circuit breaker" feature allows for immediate disconnection from the GreenLake cloud when suspicious activity is detected. This capability caters to industries like financial services that require stringent compliance with regulations.

For organizations that need complete control over their data, air-gapped cloud management is now generally available, allowing management of private cloud infrastructure without any external dependency.
