HPE has introduced new security facilities for its Aruba Networking and Greenlake platforms to increase clouds and network safety into the hybrid IT environment.
The update announced at the RSA 2025 conference includes AI-powered policy engine for network access control, strict integration between Aruba Central and HPE OPSRAP for Unified Visibility, and SD-WAN and SECURATION SERVICE SERVICE EDGE (SSE).
HPE said Greenlake Private Cloud Enterprise would receive a “digital circuit breaker” to separate important systems from public internet during the dangers detected.
“With an increase in adopting data-fuel AI applications, organizations are facing more sophisticated hazards to collect, captured, or broadcast,” organizations are facing more sophisticated hazards, ” Phil mottrumEVPs and General Manager of HPE Aruba networking, highlight the need for precise security measures.
This safety pushes HPE’s bid for $ 14 billion acquisition bid Junipar NetworkWhich is currently under review by the Department of Justice. In Q1 FY25 Income CallHPE CEO Antonio Nerry said the company has a “compelling case” and is expected to shut down the transaction before the financial 2025.
Zero Trust gets AI upgrade
HPE announced the enhanced network access control (NAC) capabilities at ARUBA Central, which was built on a clearance heritage, offering a cloud-country, AI-operated system that automatically automatches access policies.
Enhanced NAC will apply rules directly to new devices based on applications, role and subnet, which will be integrated into network workflows to apply zero trust from Edge to Cloud. This automation setup is designed to reduce time and errors, and enables the security teams to manage the dynamic environment efficiently.
Through integration with HPE opsramp, the platform will provide integrated visibility in Cisco, Arista and Junipar environment, which will enable the application risk scoring that adjust access control in real time.
Sakshi Grover, Senior Research Manager of IDC Asia/Pacific, said HPE’s AI-run NAC stands out in the zero-Trust and SASE market. “HPE data is focusing on sovereignty, operational flexibility, and regulatory alignment, preferences that are missions for enterprises globally.”
Edgeconom SD-Van of Aruba will now include adaptive DDOS defense, which uses machine learning to detect and reduce the edge attacks, reduce dependence on upstream protection services.
A free private edge for ZTNA customers will align local policies with license cloud settings, which will ensure frequent protection. Aruba’s security service Edge (SSE) will employ global Aries connectivity to dynamically root traffic, maintaining an uptime without manual intervention, which supports operating continuity during network disruption.
Private cloud isolation
HPE announced that its Greenlake Private Cloud Enterprise would now have a “digital circuit breaker” that is disconnected from the public internet when the dangers are detected, separating important systems and re -joining after verification. This facility will support compliance with the important digital operations flexibility act (DORA) for financial institutions.
“HPE threatening-unknowable security provides an active and automatic control mechanism,” Grover said. “Instead of relying on manual intervention during a violation, it enables real -time mitigation that helps reduce the protection and business disruption of sensitive data.”
The air-gapped cloud management operated by HPE security-governing personnel will run without connectivity, with the service of regulated sectors such as the government, planned Kuberanets support.
New cyber security services focus on AI workloads and sovereign clouds, offering governance to address AI-operated threats and compliance structure to data-sensitive industries. Opsramp-crowdstrike integration is designed to detect real-time danger in the hybrid environment, enhancing reaction capabilities. Grover stated that HPE’s attention on regulated markets “confidence, control and growing requirement – especially in Asia/Pacific, aligns with” tightening cyber security laws.
