Secure, simplify and integrate across your enterprise.
Traditional network security reflects an “inside/outside” paradigm, with strict controls and policies on the perimeter but a totally open core. But many of today’s threats don’t stem from the outside world. They originate within the network itself. Given that new reality, it may be time to rethink the basic architecture of your network to implement a more pervasive security approach.
Build in security right from the start.
HP’s Adaptive Network Architecture (ANA) efficiently addresses today’s security needs. It combines an HP-exclusive architecture and design methodology with proven tools, processes and services that can be readily integrated into existing environments. Using ANA, security is built in as an integral architecture element, rather than bolted on after the fact.
The patented ANA methodology segments enterprise networks into logical, easily reconfigurable “compartments” based on your business requirements. Each compartment contains a group of resources (users/applications/services) with the same security profile and connectivity needs. ANA extends the compartments across the network — regardless of their physical location — and manages them using centralized policy management tools.
Enabling the Adaptive Infrastructure
ANA is a security enabler for a simplified, flexible, high-performing Adaptive Infrastructure that helps you:
- Mitigate security risks and vulnerabilities
- Improve network agility to respond to business and technology change
- Reduce the cost of security policy management and controls
- Accelerate implementation of new business services
