At Palo Alto Networks, we strive to provide the most compelling security to our customers, delivered with the utmost consistency across the network, endpoint and cloud. We are trusted by more than 39,500 customers to protect their organizations, prevent cyberattacks, and help maintain trust in the digital age. Our decade-long journey was founded on two words: innovation and disruption. The time has come to once again help change the future of the security industry, but this time we aren’t forging the way by ourselves – we are building on everything we have done and dramatically changing the consumption model for the most comprehensive security achievable. It is time to unleash security innovation, entrepreneurship and better protection for our customers.
The Palo Alto Networks Application Framework, announced today at our Ignite 2017 conference in Vancouver, reinvents how our customers rapidly adopt the most innovative new security technologies, consumed via cloud-based apps developed by any provider, large or small.
The framework is built on top of the Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Security Platform, allowing our customers to access, evaluate and adopt emerging new security technologies, as an extension of the infrastructure they already own and operate. These apps can be built by us, by third-party partners, by MSSPs and by customers directly to solve any use case imaginable.
The answer is to drive a level of innovation that is at least as speedy, flexible and adaptive as attackers themselves. Our journey here is beginning, but we can’t do this alone. Delivering on this promise takes an entire community of developers and entrepreneurs to solve the most challenging security use cases facing our customers today.
