Streamline PCI Compliance with the Aruba CX10000 Distributed Services Switch

whitePaper | February 28, 2023

The Aruba CX 10000 Distributed Services Switch with embedded AMD Pensando DPUs offers organizations an option to implement effective network segmentation by applying stateful firewall inspection policies at the switch port level, without having to route traffic to an external firewall for inspection. The Aruba CX 10000 is designed for securing East-West traffic and providing effective isolation for individual hosts or groups of hosts in the same rack even when those hosts are in the same L2 broadcast domain. This capability can be leveraged for minimizing the scope of Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) compliance as well as for meeting multiple PCI DSS requirements. The ability to implement segmentation at the port or host level ultimately reduces the cost and operational burden required to achieve and maintain PCI compliance, as well as validate compliance annually

Achieving IP/Optical Convergence: Building from Existing Networks

whitePaper | July 8, 2021

Enterprise and residential market dynamics, 5G, and the cloud are driving new applications—and creating new revenue opportunities for Communications Service Providers (CSPs). But these emerging use cases are also creating challenges: new traffic patterns, the move to virtualized and distributed applications, and the need for higher bandwidth and lower latency connectivity to end-users. IP/Optical convergence can play a key role in helping CSPs address these, but where does the path to architecture evolution begin? For every CSP, the journey is unique. With Ciena’s solutions, CSPs can start—and build—from their existing networks to evolve to a more streamlined, programmatic infrastructure that can serve as the foundation for innovation in the distributed services and content era.

Securing the Future of Connected Work

whitePaper | July 12, 2021

Today’s hybrid workforce of both remote and in-office employees is the new normal as the world adapts to the COVID-19 pandemic. IT security teams are struggling to support this new global digital workforce that needs reliable, secure, and fast access to the Internet. Cyber attackers are also taking advantage of this new normal, so how do organizations prevent growing threats from web and email vectors? Traditional security strategies of routing Internet traffic through a VPN increase latency, slow performance, and disrupt the user experience. The solution that avoids these problems is to bypass the VPN by using cloud-delivered isolation, enabling organizations to provide their global workforce with completely secure access to the Internet. Menlo’s new ebook, Securing the Future of Work, discusses how organizations can deliver consistent security services to this new digital workforce through isolation in the cloud.
