New managed services spanning secure access service edge (SASE) and managed LAN/WLAN help enterprises simplify operations and strengthen security from edge to cloud
GTT Communications, Inc., a leading networking and security as a service provider for multinational organizations, announced the expansion of its global partnership with HPE, expanding GTT’s managed services portfolio to simplify the evolving complexity of enterprise networking. The combination of the GTT Envision platform and Managed LAN/WLAN solutions, delivered via HPE Aruba Central, enables enterprises to simply and securely connect users, devices and applications across diverse environments, addressing the growing demand for scalable, AI-enabled, high-performance networking.
As enterprises navigate increasing demands driven by AI adoption and evolving security threats, they are rethinking how their networks are designed, managed and secured. According to a report by Dell’Oro Group, single-vendor SASE is projected to represent 85% of a $21 billion market by 2030 as enterprises shift toward vendors that offer both networking and security.
“Representing roughly 85% of the SASE market, the single-vendor SASE thesis is strongest when SD-WAN and SSE both matter to the customer architecture, improving policy cohesion, operations and accountability,” said Mauricio Sanchez, Senior Director, Enterprise Security and Networking, Dell’Oro Group.
“Enterprise networking is becoming increasingly complex with more traffic, more distribution and more threats,” said Fletcher Keister, Chief Product Technology Officer, GTT. “The GTT Envision platform is designed to support best-of-breed solutions like HPE Networking, ensuring our customers have access to market-leading technology as their requirements evolve.”
GTT and HPE have worked together for more than a decade to deliver secure, scalable SD-WAN managed services using HPE Networking EdgeConnect SD-WAN. The partnership has now been expanded to include HPE Networking SSE, enabling GTT to grow its GTT Secure Connect portfolio with a fully managed, single vendor SASE solution built on GTT’s Tier 1 global network that integrates HPE’s SD-WAN and cloud security into a Zero Trust architecture. This reduces vendor sprawl, simplifies operations, improves application performance across hybrid and multicloud environments, and enables zero trust security capabilities.
“GTT has consistently been at the forefront of supporting customers through their WAN transformation, with a differentiated approach at the edge that simplifies the adoption of SD-WAN and SASE architectures,” said Jon Green, CTO, Networking, HPE. “The addition of HPE Networking’s SSE and Managed LAN/WLAN capabilities further strengthens GTT’s ability to deliver a unified networking and security experience — connecting users, devices and applications seamlessly across data center, cloud, SaaS and edge environments. By extending these capabilities across its global managed services platform, GTT helps organizations streamline operations, improve visibility and accelerate time to value. Together, we are helping enterprises modernize securely for the demands of an AI-driven world.”
GTT Secure Connect with HPE SSE is available now, with the expanded portfolio of LAN/WLAN expected to be available to enterprise customers later this year.
