HPE expands cybersecurity portfolio with new data protection solutions

HOUSTON - Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE:HPE), a prominent player in the Technology Hardware, Storage & Peripherals industry with a market capitalization of $25.94 billion, announced Tuesday an expansion of its cybersecurity and data protection solutions, showcasing its combined secure networking portfolio for the first time since acquiring Juniper Networks. According to InvestingPro data, the company has demonstrated strong momentum with an 11.79% revenue growth over the last twelve months.

The company unveiled a new SASE copilot for HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect that provides AI-driven insights on network activity and security gaps. HPE also extended its zero trust policy enforcement capabilities through HPE Aruba Networking Central NAC to include both HPE Juniper Networking and third-party devices. With a healthy current ratio of 1.29 and consistent dividend payments for 11 consecutive years, HPE demonstrates strong operational stability.

For data protection, HPE introduced the Alletra Storage MP X10000 solution, which the company claims is the world’s fastest enterprise backup storage with speeds of up to 1.2 petabytes per hour - nearly twice as fast as competitors according to HPE’s internal testing. The solution is designed for industries requiring rapid data recovery, such as healthcare and finance.

"With the rise in both the volume and sophistication of cyber threats, organizations need advanced solutions to mitigate risk, defend against attacks and build resiliency, across their entire IT estate," said David Hughes, SVP & GM, SASE & Security, HPE Networking, in a press release statement.

HPE Zerto Software will offer a new integration hub enabling third-party applications to access HPE Zerto data, with CrowdStrike as the exclusive launch partner. This integration aims to combine CrowdStrike’s threat detection capabilities with HPE Zerto’s recovery functions to minimize the impact of ransomware attacks.

"By combining the power of the AI-native Falcon platform with HPE Zerto’s recovery capabilities, we’re enabling organizations to stop breaches, minimize downtime, and maintain business continuity," said Daniel Bernard, chief business officer at CrowdStrike.

HPE is also validating HPE Zerto for compliance with U.S. government cybersecurity guidelines and has created a new cybersecurity Center of Excellence focused on detecting and validating storage systems against ransomware threats.

The HPE Alletra Storage MP X10000 data protection solution is available immediately, while the HPE Zerto Software integration hub will be available in the fourth quarter of 2025. With analysts projecting continued profitability and setting a consensus target price suggesting potential upside, HPE appears well-positioned in the market.
