Hewlett Packard Enterprise unveils new cloud-based security features at RSA 2025

HPE introduces zero trust, adaptive security, and sovereign cloud tools to bolster enterprise cybersecurity at RSA Conference 2025.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has announced a wide-ranging set of cloud security innovations designed to help businesses strengthen cybersecurity across hybrid and private cloud environments. The new features, launched at RSA Conference 2025 in San Francisco, introduce advanced policy tools, sovereign cloud protections, and adaptive threat responses aimed at addressing the rising complexity of today’s digital threats.

Among the headline updates are improvements to HPE Aruba Networking Central, which now supports more precise cloud-based network access controls. These are intended to reinforce zero trust network access (ZTNA) frameworks by treating every user, device and application as a potential threat until verified. Meanwhile, the company’s HPE Private Cloud Enterprise now offers threat-adaptive security and air-gapped cloud management to further support customers in regulated industries or those operating sovereign environments.

Smarter network access and stronger observability

A key component of HPE’s strategy is the expansion of capabilities in HPE Aruba Networking Central. The platform now includes a new Network Access Control (NAC) solution with enhanced policy features. These allow IT teams to define granular access rules — such as application-to-role or role-to-subnet permissions — that enforce consistent security policies across entire networks.

Also new is a deeper integration between Aruba Networking Central and HPE OpsRamp. This gives organisations greater visibility across third-party devices from providers like Cisco, Arista and Juniper Networks. Additional improvements to application profiling and risk assessments enable businesses to set access policies that match their internal risk preferences.

Security capabilities within HPE’s EdgeConnect SD-WAN have also been boosted. The solution now offers new secure access service edge (SASE) integrations, adaptive DDoS protection powered by machine learning, and a bundled licence for Private Edge with every ZTNA deployment. High-availability mesh connectivity is now available through HPE Aruba Networking SSE to support dynamic traffic routing, automatic failover, and always-on security without requiring manual IT intervention.

Adaptive private cloud protection and sovereign services

Building on the HPE GreenLake platform, HPE is introducing new features designed to protect private cloud environments against sophisticated threats and ensure compliance with emerging regulatory standards like the Digital Operations Resilience Act (DORA).

HPE Private Cloud Enterprise now supports a “digital circuit breaker” capability that automatically disconnects from the public internet in response to detected threats. This temporary isolation limits potential damage while allowing systems to securely reconnect once the threat has passed. The solution is tailored to meet the resilience and security expectations of financial institutions and other highly regulated sectors.

Air-gapped cloud management is now generally available for private and sovereign cloud environments. Delivered by HPE security-cleared personnel, this setup enables organisations to manage cloud infrastructure entirely on-premises without needing external network validation. Future support will extend this capability to Kubernetes-based workloads.

HPE is also launching new cybersecurity services tailored for sovereign cloud environments. These services are designed to integrate with enterprise risk frameworks and regulatory requirements. In addition, HPE has introduced AI-focused security services to help businesses embrace artificial intelligence while maintaining strong governance and protection against AI-driven threats.

Commitment to secure-by-design principles

The RSA Conference 2025 marks one year since HPE signed the CISA Secure by Design pledge. The company highlighted progress in its edge-to-cloud security vision, including over 2,200 integrated security controls within HPE GreenLake and a growing suite of technologies aligned with global standards such as CIS, STIG and FIPS 140-3 Level 3.

Further developments include AI-based network detection and response through Aruba Networking, advanced ransomware protection with the HPE Cyber Resilience Vault, and the HPE ProLiant Compute Gen12 server portfolio featuring post-quantum cryptography. These new Gen12 servers are the first to meet the FIPS 140-3 Level 3 standard, reflecting HPE’s commitment to proactive, hardware-level security.

HPE is showcasing these innovations at booth #1261 at RSA Conference 2025, including live demos of its Aruba Networking solutions, ProLiant servers, Morpheus and OpsRamp software, and Zerto recovery systems.
