Cyberattacks are on the rise, and organizations must look to minimize potential impact of a security incident or compromised data protection. Encryption has emerged as a best practice and in many cases a requirement for protecting sensitive and critical data for many enterprises, but without proper management, encryption can quickly become complex and costly.

With growing concerns and sophistication of cyberattacks over the past few years, many enterprises and even governments have begun initiatives to implement a zero-trust framework into their data centers. A zero trust data-centric security model allows the concept of least privileged access to be applied for every access decision—minimizing the ability to access sensitive information.

In my recent blog, A secure supply chain: the foundation to zero trust, I discuss the importance of having a secure supply chain to ensure authentic and tamper free servers—and how any disruptions and risk to the integrity of an enterprise data center can lead to breach or data-loss, resulting in long lasting and damaging operational, financial, and brand consequences. The same is true for a data-breach and loss of any sensitive data-at-rest within your databases, file systems and storage infrastructure.

Simple, secure and compliant encryption with local or cloud key management

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) delivers the world’s most secure industry-standard server portfolio with an enhanced 360-degree view to security that begins in the manufacturing supply chain and concludes with a safeguarded, end-of-life decommissioning. 

While zero trust is a lifecycle effort, the key principles are built into everything HPE designs, and is why HPE is best suited to be your trusted security partner, helping you navigate and implement a cyber resilient infrastructure for data protection. HPE servers with Utimaco ESKM[1] provide a complete solution, unifying and automating an organization’s encryption controls by securely creating, protecting, serving, controlling, and auditing access to business-and compliance-critical encryption keys.

The HPE data-at-rest solution provides security by an encryption technique so that – even in the case of a breach – your sensitive data is always protected. HPE servers with Utimaco ESKM deliver outstanding performance, efficient TCO while protecting your sensitive data from intrusion.
