Global expansion, mobile workforce and cloud computing are changing the way businesses deploy and deliver applications. With Prisma™ Access, you get the protection you need, wherever you are. Prisma Access provides Secure Access (SASE) that provides globally distributed networks and security for all your users and applications. Mobile users need consistent security to access data center and cloud applications. Remote access VPN is inadequate because users typically connect to a gateway to access data center applications and then disconnect from the VPN for better performance (but less security) when accessing cloud and internet applications. Prisma™ Access is an SASE that helps enterprises leverage cloud and mobility by providing network and network security services from the cloud. With a growing number of users, branch offices, data, and services outside of protecting traditional network security appliances, enterprises need a cloud-based infrastructure that brings together network and network security capabilities. Prisma Access provides consistent security services and access to cloud applications (including public cloud, private cloud, and software as a service) delivered through a common framework for a seamless user experience. Prisma Access provides consistent and secure access to all applications – in the cloud, in your data center, or over the Internet. These issues increase administrative costs and create operational challenges, and market demands change.
In 2019, Gartner defined a new cloud-based architecture for networking and security called Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), which brings together first-generation standalone products with a common service delivery model. The GlobalProtect app also allows you to configure access policies based on Host Information Profile (HIP), enabling even more granular security policies related to device characteristics such as operating system, patch level, and presence of endpoint software required when accessing sensitive applications. Cloud Access Security Broker Prisma Access and Prisma SaaS implement security controls that combine the security of online security APIs and contextual controls and act as Cloud Access Security Brokers (CASB) to determine access to sensitive information. These controls are implemented in an integrated manner and applied to all cloud application policies. Prisma Access brings protection closer to your users, so traffic doesn`t need to be sent back to headquarters to reach the cloud. It works with the GlobalProtect app™ on a user`s smartphone, tablet or laptop. The application automatically establishes an IPsec/SSL VPN tunnel to Prisma Access to enforce security policies without redirecting to headquarters. With Prisma Access, all users have secure and fast access to all applications in the cloud, on the Internet or in your data center.
Cloud and mobility drive changes in your network and security needs. Traditionally, organizations have faced many challenges in implementing these changes in addition to existing infrastructure: Whether in branch offices or on the road, your users connect to Prisma Access to securely access cloud and data center applications and the Internet. Cloud Secure Web Gateway The Prisma Access for Secure Web Gateway (SWG) feature is designed to provide visibility into all types of traffic while blocking bypasses that can mask threats. Our web filtering capabilities also drive our credential prevention technology to protect against credentials, which can prevent corporate credentials from being sent to previously unknown websites. All users, whether at headquarters, branch offices, or on the go, connect to Prisma Access to securely access cloud and data center applications and the Internet. Prisma Access systematically inspects all traffic on all ports and provides two-way networks to enable branch-to-branch and branch-to-headquarters traffic. Large groups of users may need to change locations from time to time, as conferences, weather, and natural disasters can strain local infrastructure. Prisma Access monitors conditions and automatically adapts to add capacity in regions where it is needed. The license for Prisma Access for Networks is based on the total bandwidth used at all sites, with the bandwidth pool divided into the amounts required by each site (minimum bandwidth pool: 200 Mbps). Prisma Access can be used to connect remote networks over a standard IPsec connection, using an existing router, software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN), or IPsec-enabled firewall, to secure traffic, protect sensitive information, and meet privacy requirements.
Prisma Access supports SD-WAN options with Palo Alto Networks` next-generation firewalls as well as third-party products. Prisma Access provides flexible and consistent security for all applications, branch offices, and mobile users. It helps organizations rapidly deploy and scale security around the world to ensure rapid protection. This avoids the complexity and administrative costs typically associated with managing security at scale. Firewall as a Service Prisma Access provides a firewall as a service (FWaaS) that protects branch offices from threats while providing the security services expected of a next-generation firewall. The full range of FWaaS includes threat prevention, URL filtering, sandboxing, and more. The Prisma Access for Users license is based on the total number of users, with tiers ranging from 200 users to over 100,000. Prisma Access for Users requires the GlobalProtect application.
Supported endpoints include Microsoft Windows®, Apple macOS® and iOS, Android®, Google Chrome® OS, and Linux. Many branch offices and retail stores are geographically dispersed and do not have full-time IT staff, making it difficult to deploy, manage, change control, and upgrade hardware. Data loss prevention Prisma Access combines integration with data loss prevention (DLP) controls that are both API-driven (via Prisma SaaS) and online (via Prisma Access). These DLP policies allow organizations to categorize data and establish policies that prevent data loss. Prisma Access continuously protects all traffic across all ports and applications, enabling your organization to: Prisma Access is designed to prevent successful cyberattacks, and can therefore do more than just secure the web. To stop cyberattacks, it is necessary to inspect all data traffic. Anything that is not a complete inspection of all traffic leads to a significant security breach. Prisma Access is delivered as a cloud service from more than 100 locations in 76 countries, allowing users and branch offices to connect to enable connectivity and security for mobile users, branch offices, and individuals.
