Case Study: Australian Defence Apparel achieves ISO 27001 cybersecurity compliance and unified secure networking with HPE Aruba Networking

Australian Defence Apparel - Customer Case Study

Australian Defence Apparel (ADA) is Australia’s primary manufacturer of uniforms and personal equipment for the Australian Defence Force, serving sectors from law enforcement to healthcare. Facing the need to accelerate digital workflows, streamline production and supply chains, and meet stringent public‑sector IT security standards, ADA required a unified network architecture, a single operational view, and stronger cybersecurity and business continuity.

Using HPE Aruba Networking solutions — including EdgeConnect SD‑Branch, CX 6300 switches, Wi‑Fi 6 access points, EdgeConnect gateways, Aruba Central and ClearPass — ADA established a consistent, centrally managed network and security posture. The deployment reduced network management costs, strengthened device and user security, and delivered ISO 27001 cybersecurity compliance.
