October brings the spookiest vibes of the year—ghosts, goblins, eerie shadows, and haunted houses abound. But while Halloween should be all about festive frights and fun, your business’s cybersecurity shouldn’t join the scare fest.

In addition to Halloween, October is also Cybersecurity Awareness Month, a dedicated period for raising awareness on how to stay secure online. As cyber threats against small businesses grow, protecting your network has never been more important or more achievable.

Did you know that 46% of all cyberattacks target businesses with under 1,000 employees?* With cybersecurity incidents becoming more common and costly, small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) need strategies that can secure their networks affordably and effectively.

Five ways to protect SMBs' network from unwelcome hauntings:

1. Don’t be afraid of the dark

It’s natural to fear what you can’t see, but with HPE Networking Instant On’s cloud management, you can monitor every device on your network, anytime, anywhere, right from your phone. So don’t worry about monsters (or hidden cyber-threats) lurking in the dark — you’ll have visibility at your fingertips.

2. Spin a web of network security policies

Spin a web of robust network security policy by setting password standards, enabling multi-factor authentication, and defining guidelines for sensitive data handling. Separate guest traffic from employee traffic, avoid shared management accounts, and assign access levels according to each user’s role. It’s all about keeping those “black widows” away from your network!

3. Avoid the zombie apocalypse. Protect against viruses.

A healthy network is a protected network. Install reliable anti-virus and anti-malware solutions to shield your end-user devices from viruses, trojans, and ransomware. This protection is essential for safe file sharing and internet use.

4. Don’t let your security go ghost

If your network security fails, you’ll be at risk of unwanted visitors. Always keep your systems and applications updated with the latest security patches, helping you avoid unwanted intrusions and protect sensitive data.

5. No tricks, all treats

With HPE Networking Instant On, robust security comes included — no extra costs, no hidden fees, and no tech expertise required. It’s a cybersecurity treat that’s as sweet as a Halloween candy apple!

Cybersecurity is essential year-round, but it doesn’t have to be a frightful task. By following these practical steps, you can keep your business network fast, reliable, and secure.

Alongside this, Aruba takes the top spot as the only vendor to achieve 3 out of 5 use cases in the Critical Capabilities report.

The post HPE (Aruba) Triumphs as a Six-Time Leader in Gartner’s 2023 Magic Quadrant for SD-WAN appeared first on MEC Networks Corporation.

]]>

MEC Networks is thrilled to extend profound congratulations to HPE (Aruba) for their exceptional achievement in the realm of SD-WAN. They have secured the prestigious position of Leader in the 2023 Gartner Magic Quadrant for SD-WAN for the sixth consecutive year. Their remarkable feat makes them one of only two companies to be named a Leader in the Gartner SD-WAN Magic Quadrant for all six years.

In Gartners evaluation, which considers Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute, HPE (Aruba) has consistently proved exceptional prowess. The report provides a comprehensive assessment of each vendors Strengths and Cautions.

Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN Meets Modern IT Challenges

The challenges of the modern IT landscape demand innovative solutions, and Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN rises to the occasion. This powerful networking platform is designed to optimize cloud-first, connected IoT (Internet of Things), and security requirements across the WAN (Wide Area Networks), enabling enterprise IT organizations to drive digital transformation.

With the advent of sustained hybrid work, the norm now is to provide a consistent quality of experience and security policy enforcement. Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN brings a secure network foundation for Zero Trust and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), encompassing advanced SD-WAN and integrated next-generation firewall functions.

Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN simplifies provisioning and operations by delivering a unified SD-WAN fabric across locations of all sizes. This results in significant operational benefits, improved business productivity and agility, reduced business risk, and lower overall WAN costs.

Combining the EdgeConnect SD-WAN platform with HPE Networking SSE creates a unified SASE solution that streamlines networking and security functions. This consolidation eliminates complexities, reduces costs, and enhances cross-functional collaboration, facilitating a single-vendor SASE architecture with Zero Trust built-in.

What Sets Aruba Apart

Arubas exceptional offering empowers organizations to:

1. Gain choice and flexibility

The EdgeConnect SD-WAN platform delivers advanced networking capabilities crucial for cloud-first organizations. These include Path Conditioning to overcome dropped packets and poor network conditions, Tunnel Bonding for best application performance, First-packet IQ for intelligent packet routing, Dynamic Path Control for maximum bandwidth use, App Express for optimized user experiences, Multi-cloud Networking to simplify WAN integration with public cloud providers, and WAN Optimization for reduced latency and improved bandwidth efficiency.

2. Leverage Secure SD-WAN capabilities

EdgeConnect SD-WAN offers a comprehensive security service to consolidate branch network and security functions. This ends the need for legacy firewalls and routers in branches. Embedded security features include a next-generation firewall, fine-grained segmentation, rule-based Intrusion Detection and Prevention System (IDS/IPS), DDoS detection and prevention, and seamless integration with major SSE cloud security providers.

3. Implement a single vendor SASE Solution with Zero Trust

The era of disparate networking and security solutions is propagating. A unified SASE solution from a single vendor simplifies operations, reduces complexity and cost, and improves cross-functional collaboration. Combining the EdgeConnect SD-WAN platform with HPE Networking SSE promotes a unified SASE solution. Aruba Zero Trust, integrated from edge to cloud, enforces role-based traffic segmentation. HPE Aruba Networking SSE provides ZTNA, SWG, CASB, and added cloud security capabilities. This approach allows organizations to deploy a unified SASE architecture at their own pace, ensuring consistent, business-driven security policies for all users, devices, and applications without compromising performance or functionality.

Celebrating Customer Validation

While Gartner’s recognition is a testament to Aruba’s excellence, it is also the voice of the customer that truly counts. HPE Aruba has garnered a remarkable 4.9/5.0 rating on Gartner Peer Insights based on customer reviews. This validates their impact on tech solutions in the real world.
