Aruba Networking Partners

SASE (Secure Application Service Edge) is emerging as the NextGen infrastructure architecture for any organization with a widely distributed user base, SaaS applications, roaming/hybrid users and stringent security requirements. SD–WAN has always between a component of SASE, and an advanced SD–WAN such as Aruba EdgeConnect just makes it work better.

The latest updates to Aruba EdgeConnect can incorporate Secure Services Edge (SSE) functionality into the SD–WAN which now means you can deliver a single–vendor SASE architecture on the EdgeConnect platform

Aruba offers a high–performance SD–WAN solution that securely connects users to applications using any combination of connectivity.

EdgeConnect provides secure and reliable virtual overlays to connect users to applications with the flexibility to use any combination of transport technologies without compromising network or application performance.

With Aruba EdgeConnect, customers can increase performance and reduce cost.

In addition to large scale WAN Network Transformation, Hararei offer solutions for Secure Overlay Networks and Thin Branch, which may substantially reduce costs associated with running a large physical branch network.

Aruba High–Performance SDWAN provides the following benefits

Increased Application Performance and Availability
Enhanced Agility and Responsiveness to Business Initiatives
Simplified WAN Edge Infrastructure
Improved WAN Security
Reduction in WAN Costs

An Aruba SD–WAN can co–exist with your existing network, which means you can adopt it incrementally, without disrupting your entire WAN

ClearPass

The most advanced secure NAC platform available.

Aruba’s ClearPass policy manager provides role-based and device-based secure network access control for IoT, BYOD, corporate devices, as well as employees, contractors and guests across any multivendor wired, wireless and VPN infrastructure.

With a built-in context-based policy engine, RADIUS, TACACS+, non-RADIUS enforcement using OnConnect, device profiling, posture assessment, onboarding, and guest access options, ClearPass is unrivaled as a foundation for network security for organizations of any size.

With ClearPass, organizations can deploy wired or wireless using standards-based 802.1X enforcement for secure authentication. ClearPass also supports MAC address authentication for IoT and headless devices that may lack support for 802.1X. For wired environments where RADIUS based authentication cannot be deployed, OnConnect, offers an alternative using SNMP based enforcement.

Key Functionality

Policy Enforcement: Creates and enforces granular access policies based on user, device, location, and other contextual factors.
Network Access Control (NAC): Provides secure access for a variety of devices, including corporate, personal (BYOD), and IoT devices.
Device Profiling: Automatically identifies and categorizes all connected devices to provide visibility into what is on the network.
Guest Access: Simplifies the process of providing secure internet access to guests through pre-configured portals.
Onboarding: Automates the process for users to securely onboard their devices to the network.
Posture Assessment: Checks the security health of devices before granting network access to ensure they meet security policies.

Key Benefits

Enhanced Security: Supports a "zero trust" approach by ensuring only authenticated and healthy devices can connect to the network.
Multi–vendor Support: Works across different network infrastructures, regardless of the vendor.
Streamlined Management: Consolidates network access control into a single platform, simplifying management and providing a unified view of the network.
Scalability: Can be deployed in various environments, from small networks to large-scale enterprises.
Automation: Automates many manual IT tasks, such as device onboarding and policy enforcement.
