HP Yiu Xiang: Large data to meet new challenges of enterprise security business

At the RSA2013 (US) conference, which was just concluded at the beginning of the month, large data security has become a hot topic among many manufacturers, and it has been one of the hottest technical hotspots in the industry this year. Many manufacturers, including HP, have launched products and solutions related to large data security. At a recent media conference, Hewlett-Packard Enterprise Security Products Department Asia general Manager Yiu Xiang and the media share the company's current risk changes, as well as HP's performance in large data security, and how HP through large data to achieve great security.

Problems faced by enterprise security business

Yiu Xiang first summed up that in the new environment, enterprise security currently faces four aspects of the problem: first, the data leakage incident increased the security pressure to the enterprise, such as Sony leaks and so on; the second is time-consuming, once attacked the enterprise will take a long time to return to normal operation, the most important thing is that the customer's fear of corporate reputation may be 5 years , 10 years will not come back; third, the new technology to the enterprise security risks, such as BYOD, and finally large data, large data has a tendency is blindly pursue large and do not pursue mining, light has large data without mining on the data has no meaning.

When it comes to changes in the security needs of businesses, Yiu Xiang introduced to say, "From the beginning, enterprises are at the stage of development, fast and simple affordable security is the first choice of enterprises; Next is the demand for compliance; Third, the need for data security protection; Four is the enterprise starts to embrace it change, security is not the opposite of it, Security is a part of it development that needs to be taken into account; Finally, the chief security officer begins to consider how to assess security risks, and companies want strategic protection. But security is not the same as other categories in the IT industry, security is the only industry with the least initiative, because security opponents are hackers. The chief information officer usually feels overwhelmed, he doesn't know what to do, he can't track the latest security advances, so that's a big challenge. ”

HP safety focus on three major directions

Security is one of HP's three major strategies, its user range includes enterprise-class customers and consumer-level customers. The optimization of large data and data information is the key direction of HP's safety promotion. HP's security strategy focuses on the following three directions:

1, strengthen the attack surface, the customer's attack surface includes the edge network equipment, the web and the entire Internet delivery part, HP through fortify code scanning to ensure that the code does not have security vulnerabilities, and the other IPs is HP used to strengthen the attack surface. In addition to the security product technology, HP integrates application lifecycle management, including HP's traditional server and data center solutions.

2, strengthen the risk management, this and strengthening the attack surface is the biggest difference is mainly external protection, and security management involves the aspect is internal and external. Before security there are some relatively large security incidents and internal staff have a great relationship. So that's why we need to strengthen risk management.

3, active protection of information, means to proactively identify, understand and protect sensitive information within the enterprise.

Great security through large data

The new HP Arcsight/hadoop Integration utility Seamless integration of HP ArcSight 6.0c with Apache Hadoop, combining the two technologies to accelerate the mining of large data storage processes, providing a more complete view of the event, and quickly identify security attack trends. The solution combines HP ArcSight reporting, search, and correlation capabilities with a large, centralized repository of Hadoop to deliver petabytes of information storage capacity to the enterprise.

"Many companies lack the understanding of the key information needed to withstand potential threats," says Yiu Xiang. By combining cloud monitoring, content analysis and large data processing, HP can provide users with the background information they need to effectively block potential vulnerabilities. ”

Yiu Xiang concludes, "Overall, if the enterprise user is for fast and easy to be affordable security then express can be solved; if it is safe to leak, security reports on the enterprise Help; enterprise focus on security change the integration of cloud connections can help enterprises solve problems; HP's large data security can help companies solve the problem. ”
