NEW SECURITY LEVELS FOR MORE COMPLEX ENVIRONMENTS & INCREASED THREATS
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Security is a looming issue for businesses. The threat landscape is increasing, and attacks are becoming more sophisticated. Emerging technologies like IoT, mobility, and hybrid IT environments now open new business opportunity, but they also introduce new risk. Protecting servers at the software level is no longer enough. Businesses need to reach down into the physical system level to stay ahead of threats. With today’s increasing regulatory landscape, compliance is more critical for both increasing security and reducing the cost of compliance failures. With these pieces being so critical, it is important to bring new levels of hardware protection and drive security all the way down to the supply chain level. Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has a strategy to deliver this through its unique server firmware protection, detection, and recovery capabilities, as well as its HPE Security Assurance.
TODAY’S CUSTOMER NEEDS
Technologies like cloud infrastructure, the Internet of Things (IoT), mobility, and software-defined infrastructure can deliver many benefits, including better agility, more innovation, deeper customer relationships, and better business economics. But with those benefits come significant challenges to protect critical data, as these complex ways of using IT expose businesses to more threats. Previously, many believed that a strong perimeter, with limited client and data access, was all that was required to protect IT assets. But as new ways of doing business are extending IT out beyond the datacenter, the need to protect and secure from a new perspective is paramount.
Those who believe they have a strong security strategy may be missing out on key aspects. They should constantly be asking the question, “HOW secure?” Those who are not asking the question may not be truly secure. The roots of security reach back into the design and supply chain, they do not start when the product arrives on the dock.
HPE has one of the most comprehensive strategies, focusing on protecting, detecting, and recovering within its products. Explore the details by downloading the brouchure and keep your self secured.
