In this episode we are looking at why people are moving away from Virtual Private Networks, or VPNs, and are navigating towards Zero Trust Network Access, or ZTNAs.

VPNs have largely been unchallenged as the go-to cyber security option for organisations since they first came about in the mid-1990s. However, they do have security flaws which have been exploited by hackers and cyber criminals, leading many to ask whether there’s a more secure solution.

Joining us to discuss why ZTNA is becoming a more popular security option for organisations is Jaye Tillson, HPE’s Director of Strategy in Cyber Security.

This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.

Today we’re discussing synthetic data - that is, data trained by AI and computer simulations, rather than gathered from the real world.
Now, generating theoretical data is nothing new - we’ve been taking small samples of things and extrapolating from it for decades. However, with the advent of AI we don’t necessarily just need to extrapolate. We can generate completely new, close-to-real data using AI.

But why? And why does it matter? To explain we’re joined by Chief Technology Officer for AI at Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Matt Armstrong-Barnes

According to a report published by the UK National Cyber Security Centre in January 2024, Artificial intelligence will increase the number and the severity of cyber attacks over the next two years.

So how are AI models also being developed to effectively tackle cyber crime? And what is the potential of AI for stopping cyber security threats? Joining us this week is To fill us in Rohini Chavakula, AI security lead at Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

AI in healthcare is considered an enormous opportunity. Diagnosis, drug discovery, treatment and triage – all are hot topics for new AI tools and assistance.

But is the world ready for AI-enabled healthcare? What are the challenges and opportunities the space presents?

To give us the bigger picture, we’re joined this week by Rich Bird, World Wide Healthcare and Life Sciences Lead at Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

For the last decade, messaging around cyber security has often followed a similar pattern: Make people fear the consequences of being hacked. We are only human, after all. We’re flawed, and we’re fallible. So are we the weakest link in the cyber security chain? Or is there a better way to look at it?

To answer that, we’re joined this week by HPE Cyber Security Awareness Training Program Manager, Joanne O’Connor.

In this episode we are revisiting HPE Spaceborne Computer 2, the supercomputer at the edge of space, speeding around above our heads on the International Space Station (ISS).

Last week, we looked at the science behind the system. This week, we’re exploring how HPE Spaceborne Computer 2 is speeding up the time it takes for experiments to be carried out in space, with the Principal Investigator for HPE Spaceborne Computer-2, Mark Fernandez.

In the next couple of episodes we’re going to be looking at HPE Spaceborne Computer 2 - a supercomputer on the International Space Station (ISS) that’s revolutionising computing at the edge, and science in space.

This week, we’ll be looking at the science behind the computer. Next week, we’ll be looking at the way it’s changing the way research is conducted in orbit and beyond.

So how is ddge computing changing how scientists and astronauts benefit from space exploration? To explain, we’re joined by the Principal Investigator for HPE Spaceborne Computer-2, Mark Fernandez.
