In a previous post, I walked through the key use cases and high-level capabilities of Prisma Browser; a hardened Chromium-based workspace that applies last-mile inspection and enforcement at the point web pages are rendered. If you are new to the discussion, it is worth reviewing that post
Cloud adoption has fundamentally changed how network security needs to be delivered. Traditional firewall models, built around fixed perimeters and static network boundaries, don't translate cleanly into environments where workloads are ephemeral, distributed, and even span multiple cloud providers. In cloud environments: * Workloads can be dynamic and short-
The browser is now the primary environment for modern work. Applications and workflows that once required locally installed software are now delivered through web interfaces. For most organisations, users spend the majority of their time in the browser to interact with corporate systems: * Accessing SaaS platforms and collaboration tools * Interacting
AI Access Security is a solution for discovering and controlling the use of Generative AI applications across an organisation. It enables the safe adoption of GenAI by employees, mitigating the risks posed by inadvertent data leakage in prompts and malicious content in responses. AI tools are being adopted faster than
Strata Cloud Manager (SCM) is a cloud-based network security control plane. It brings together access patterns, modular security services, and enforcement across an entire enterprise, providing unified SASE and NGFW management. SCM combines capabilities and tools that have traditionally operated in silos across multiple domains, such as remote access,
Cloud-Delivered Security Services (CDSS) is an umbrella term for subscription-based security capabilities leveraged across the Palo Alto network security platform. CDSS provide the inspection and threat detection logic used by the enforcement fabric as a shared inspection layer. The same threat intelligence, detection models, and inspection logic apply
In the previous post, I described Prisma Access as a cloud-delivered security edge and walked through the key use cases and access patterns. If you are new to the discussion, it is worth reviewing that post before continuing. This article builds on those foundations and examines how the distributed
At a high level, Prisma Access is a distributed security enforcement layer. The key concept is that security enforcement happens in a cloud-delivered security edge, close to users and applications, rather than a single physical location (like a data centre firewall). Prisma Access consolidates several key security capabilities into
Zero Trust is an approach to network security that removes implicit or assumed trust. It isn't a product and it isn't owned by any one vendor. Zero Trust is built on a simple idea: Never trust by default, always verify. Apply least privilege access, and assume
