HP Leads Industry To New School Of Cyber Defense


BENGALURU: HP today unveiled new security offerings to help organizations embrace a “New School of Cyber Defense” by protecting the interactions between users, applications, and the boundless data exchanged to safely fuel growth and innovation. As information flows through data centers to the cloud and out to personal devices, the data must be secured at every step. The new HP Security products and services announced today address this approach to security incorporating user behavior analytics, data-centric cloud access protection, mobile application reputation analysis, contextual threat intelligence sharing, and incident response.

Organizations worldwide spent approximately $77 billion on cyber security in 2014,1 while successful breaches increased 25 percent.2 Adversaries continue to evolve while organizations increasingly adopt new ways of doing business—and the current approach to securing interactions between users, applications and data isn’t keeping up.

This calls for a new approach to cyber defense. Building on security fundamentals such as monitoring events and securing the perimeter, organizations must shift their focus to protecting what matters most – the interaction between the users, the applications and the data that carry the sensitive information adversaries target.

“The old school approach to cyber security focused on securing the perimeter, but the data powering business today goes beyond our four walls and must be protected from cyber threats regardless of where it resides,” said Jyoti Prakash, Country Director, India and SAARC countries, HP Enterprise Security Products. “In today’s environment, we must challenge ourselves to embrace the new school of thinking that goes beyond the infrastructure to protect what matters most – the interactions between users, applications and data that when protected, can fuel our businesses and accelerate growth.”
