Integrated Cybersecurity: Palo Alto Prisma SASE and Netdata

In a landscape where virtuality is consolidating, cyber-attacks are becoming more sophisticated. Business operations are increasingly dependent on distributed applications in the cloud, and therefore, companies face a critical challenge: How to ensure secure and efficient access to their devices?

At Netdata, we understand that the current situation demands solutions to be integrated, automated, and above all, designed to adapt to the specific reality of each company. That's why we work with Palo Alto Networks, a global leader in cybersecurity, to offer Prisma SASE: a comprehensive platform designed to protect users, applications and devices, regardless of their location.

The new landscape: hybrid, decentralized and highly vulnerable

Key statistics reflect an inescapable reality: traditional security environments are obsolete, and isolated tools are insufficient to ensure a secure and efficient digital experience.

It is important to consider that 85% of ransomware attacks originate from unmanaged devices. The sheer number of devices required by a company and the lack of visibility into their security status widen the surface for malicious attacks.

On the other hand, with 55% of employees already using generative AI by 2023 (according to Salesforce data), the risks of data leakage and lack of policy definition on the use of AI have multiplied today.

Web browsing has become a primary attack vector, which requires specific protection. 95% of companies have experienced security incidents originating from browsers (Palo Alto, 2024).

Prisma SASE: end-to-end architecture

SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) represents a paradigm shift by making security and networking functionalities available in a single cloud-based service.

Palo Alto's Prisma SASE elevates this concept by integrating advanced security, visibility, automation and performance optimization capabilities into a unified, AI-powered platform.

What sets Prisma SASE apart?

•  Zero Trust extended to unmanaged devices: Applies Zero Trust principles to all users, regardless of location or device, using tools that isolate browsing sessions and minimize the risk of compromise.
•  Granular browser security: In a context where browsers are the primary interface for accessing applications and data, Prisma SASE provides comprehensive control over actions performed in SaaS applications, with contextual policies and protection against emerging threats.
• Proactive data loss prevention (DLP): Uses large language models (LLMs) to classify and protect sensitive information, even in the context of AI applications, mitigating the risk of confidential data leakage.
• Performance acceleration: Optimizes user experience by predicting and preparing the requested content, reducing latency and bandwidth consumption, especially in dynamic and multimedia-rich applications.
• Full observability: Make detection, diagnosis and resolution of security incidents easier by integrating synthetic and real monitoring, providing complete visibility into the health and performance of infrastructure, applications and users.
• Native SD-WAN: Improves application performance, simplifies network management and enforces consistent security policies across the infrastructure, eliminating blind spots and improving the overall security posture.

Netdata is frictionless Prisma SASE

At Netdata, we know that technology alone is not enough. Implementation, optimization and customization to the specific needs of each organization are critical to the success of a security strategy.

Why is it important now?

Midsize companies are increasingly becoming the target of cyber-attacks, as they often lack the resources and expertise to effectively protect themselves.

In addition, the rapid adoption of AI tools, decentralized applications and flexible working models has exacerbated security risks, making reactive solutions insufficient.

With Prisma SASE and Netdata, you can:

• Gain complete visibility into your users, devices and applications.
• Protect sensitive data from the browser to the cloud.
• Maintain control, even on unmanaged devices.
• Accelerate your operations with a seamless, uninterrupted user experience.

It's not just about protecting, it's about doing it with intelligence, efficiency and simplicity.

Prisma SASE, powered by AI and powered by Netdata, is the formula that enables organizations to compete with an edge in a borderless digital world.

Security doesn't have to be complex, costly or restrictive. With the right approach, it can become the engine for a more agile, reliable and scalable operation.
