Zero trust and the data center

This overview explores the importance of expanding zero trust into the data center and how legacy architectures hinder this ability. It highlights the vulnerabilities of traditional perimeter-based security and emphasizes the need for microsegmentation to create secure zones within the data center. Learn how fourth-generation switches, specifically the HPE Aruba Networking CX 10000 and CX 10040 distributed services switches, overcome these limitations by integrating network and security operations into one platform. These switches push security closer to where applications are processed, enabling zero trust principles and blocking threats from all directions, including east-west traffic.
