In addition, included is a blacklist extension that empowers the Perimeter Traffic Filtering (PTF) function and delivers more protection against threats.
Centralized Zero Trust control and management
Advanced ZTNA implements centralized management for ZTNA policies through Hillstone Security Management (HSM), and supports intelligent connection to ZTNA gateways, single packet authentication (SPA), multiple vendor Operating System support for ZTNA clients, along with a ZTNA portal. The new features provide a better user experience with improved overall operations and management of the ZTNA solution.
Smarter interconnectivity with extended VPN capabilities
The extended VPN features support ECMP and failover for intelligent VPN routing and provide IPSec VPN tunnel establishment options by configuring custom ports and auto-negotiation. These features bring better bandwidth utilization and improve connectivity, ensuring the business remains undisrupted.
Streamlined system operations offload redundant workloads
The latest StoneOS introduces a simplified start-up wizard and automated NAT redundancy check to facilitate system operations, improving overall productivity for organizations by streamlining the workload of system administrators.
Robust system-wide enhancements further ensure business continuity
System availability is improved across the board in the latest release, with support for advanced High Availability (HA) and the graceful restart of Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), further ensuring that business services remain uninterrupted for organizations.
“The transition from the traditional, edge-based security model to the distributed workforce model is a seismic change, triggered primarily by the pandemic-induced work from home mandate, but the impact will evolve gradually, and therefore the solutions we deliver need to address the associated challenges,” states Tim Liu, CTO and co-founder, Hillstone Networks, “The latest iteration of StoneOS continues to address the challenges faced by SecOps teams, and the constant risks faced by enterprises globally. Enhanced AI-driven threat protection, better integration, centralized control and management, and streamlined operations are all critical in delivering a stable and strategic approach to cyber-resilient cybersecurity environments.”
StoneOS is the foundation for all Hillstone next-generation firewalls, which has been recognized in the 2022 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Network Firewalls for the 9th consecutive year as a Visionary. StoneOS 5.5R10 is now generally available.

NetApp Delivers Secure, Zero-Copy Data Activation for the Agentic Enterprise29.9.2026 19:30:00 CEST | Press release
Enterprises will be empowered to accelerate AI innovation to machine speed NetApp® (NASDAQ: NTAP), the Intelligent Data Infrastructure company, today announced new capabilities that enable enterprises to accelerate their adoption of agentic AI with secure, in-place, zero-copy data activation. The heterogeneous metadata capability of NetApp AI Data Engine (AIDE) helps organizations discover, understand, govern, and operationalize data where it lives, while an expanded integration with Commvault connects the NetApp Platform with Commvault recovery orchestration workflow to help customers detect attacks earlier and recover cleaner data faster. As AI agents move from experimentation into production, enterprise data infrastructure has become a critical business dependency. Agents can read, retrieve, and act on data at machine speed, but most enterprise data estates were built for human-paced workflows: fragmented across file, object, cloud, on-premises, and sovereign environments; governed
NetApp to Expand Partnership with SAP to Support SAP Cloud Infrastructure29.9.2026 19:30:00 CEST | Press release
NetApp to explore integrating NetApp capabilities with SAP Cloud Infrastructure storage architecture, to support secure, resilient, high-performance infrastructure for SAP and customer workloads NetApp, the intelligent Data Infrastructure company, today announced its intent to expand its long-standing partnership with SAP, with plans to explore deeper cloud-native integration of NetApp capabilities into SAP Cloud Infrastructure, SAP’s Infrastructure-as-a-Service platform. The NetApp Platform supports key elements of the SAP Cloud Infrastructure storage architecture, delivering reliable, highly available and high-performance file and block storage services. The NetApp Platform also provides built-in proactive data protection capabilities and data replication to support SAP’s global availability model. “SAP and NetApp share a long-standing commitment to empower the world’s most mission-critical enterprise environments,” said Álvaro Celis, Senior Vice President, Chief Commercial, Partner
NetApp Removes Storage Bottleneck for AI Factories29.9.2026 19:30:00 CEST | Press release
New architecture delivers fastest storage on the planet, designed to maximize GPU utilization and architected for up to 100 TB per second aggregate throughput NetApp® (NASDAQ: NTAP), the Intelligent Data Infrastructure company, today announced NetApp Novus™, the fastest storage on the planet designed for AI infrastructure providers operating large GPU environments. Built to support a zettabyte-scale file system, this next-generation architecture will allow AI factories to keep millions of GPUs continuously fed with data, maximizing the efficiency, utilization, and profitability of their investments. Neoclouds and GPU-as-a-Service providers are building AI factories at a scale that traditional storage architectures were never designed to support, creating bottlenecks that reduce GPU utilization and increase infrastructure costs. Under traditional architectures, GPU utilization can drop below 30 percent when AI factories cannot feed enough data to their GPUs to generate the results they
NetApp Empowers Enterprises to Build Anything, Anywhere29.9.2026 19:30:00 CEST | Press release
