About Palo Alto Networks

Palo Alto Networks operates a broad cybersecurity portfolio spanning network protection, cloud security, security operations, identity and application security. Its next-generation firewalls and cloud-delivered security services provide network and web protection, while Prisma technologies extend security into SASE, cloud and SaaS environments. The Cortex portfolio addresses modern security operations through platforms such as Cortex XSIAM, XDR, XSOAR and Xpanse, combining telemetry, analytics, automation and exposure management. Palo Alto Networks has also expanded into AI security with technologies designed to protect AI applications, models, agents and data. This breadth allows organizations to connect security controls across users, endpoints, networks, cloud workloads and applications rather than operating isolated products. The company serves large enterprises, governments and critical infrastructure organizations with complex security requirements. Its Unit 42 organization also provides threat intelligence, incident response and managed security services. Its portfolio is designed for organizations seeking an integrated security architecture at enterprise scale.
