For the first time since acquiring Juniper Networks, HPE presented its integrated networking solutions at Black Hat USA, booth #2261. The HPE Juniper Networking Next-Generation Firewalls, including the SRX 4700 with 1.4 Tbps throughput per rack unit, enable zero trust architectures and mesh firewall capabilities for enterprises, telcos, and cloud providers. The SASE copilot for HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect delivers AI-driven insights into network activity, identifying security gaps and unpatched systems. HPE Aruba Networking Central NAC now enforces zero trust policies across HPE Juniper and third-party devices, with AppEngine integration for real-time app classification and risk-based policy enforcement.
The HPE Alletra Storage MP X10000, now available, is optimized for AI-driven data protection, achieving backup speeds of up to 1.2 petabytes per hour—nearly twice as fast as competitors. Its scale-out, all-flash architecture supports low recovery point objectives (RPOs) and recovery time objectives (RTOs), critical for industries like healthcare and finance. HPE StoreOnce Catalyst Software offers up to 60:1 data reduction, with validated partners including Commvault Cloud and Cohesity NetBackup, and Veeam support planned for late 2025. The HPE Cyber Resilience Vault, combining Zerto, Alletra, and Aruba, provides an air-gapped, zero-trust environment for ransomware protection.
HPE Zerto’s integration hub, set for release in Q4 2025, connects third-party cybersecurity solutions, with CrowdStrike as the exclusive launch partner. The CrowdStrike Falcon platform detects threats in real time, enabling Zerto to restore applications to clean recovery points seconds before an attack. “Our partnership with HPE reflects CrowdStrike’s commitment to delivering integrated, outcome-driven solutions,” said Daniel Bernard, Chief Business Officer at CrowdStrike. HPE Zerto is also being certified for CISA, STIG, and FIPS compliance.
HPE’s new Cybersecurity Center of Excellence focuses on validating storage systems against ransomware, with the Alletra Storage MP B10000 tested against the top 25 ransomware strains. This initiative strengthens enterprise resilience, ensuring compliance and protection in hybrid cloud environments.
“With the rise in both the volume and sophistication of cyber threats, organizations need advanced solutions to mitigate risk,” said David Hughes, SVP & GM, SASE & Security, HPE Networking. HPE’s multi-layered, AI-driven approach, enhanced by the Juniper acquisition, positions it as a leader in securing hybrid cloud environments. The solutions align with growing demand for zero trust and cyber resiliency, as seen in industries facing stringent compliance needs.
