SAN ANTONIO – October 6, 2022 – Based on its recent analysis of the Global Secure Access Service Edge Industry, Frost & Sullivan recognizes Palo Alto Networks with the 2022 Company of the Year Award for delivering Prisma SASE, a top choice in mind for SASE solution among global business, to consistently connect and secure customers’ hybrid workforces, regardless of whether users are remote, mobile, or working from an office.
“Palo Alto Networks’ Prisma SASE is one of the few cloud-native SASE platforms in the market that can support customers to digitize their business securely with a cloud-first approach and address specific use cases related to legacy systems,” said Anh Tien Vu, Industry Principal at Frost & Sullivan. “The integrated, cloud-first platform enables companies to address operational challenges to networking and security services, offering simple management and consistent policies across security services. This approach is critical for digital customers transforming their information technology infrastructure radically into a cloud-native, converged SASE approach.”
