Introduction
In the face of evolving cyber threats, companies are constantly seeking effective measures to protect their digital assets. Recognizing this challenge, Fidelis Security, a prominent name in proactive cyber defense, has announced an integration with Palo Alto Networks, a leader in cybersecurity solutions. This partnership aims to enhance threat detection and response in Zero Trust environments, providing organizations with robust security frameworks crucial for combating today’s complex cyber risks.
Addressing Cybersecurity Challenges
Security teams are grappling with the daunting task of collecting and analyzing decrypted network traffic. This is vital for identifying zero-day exploits and pinpointing abnormal behavior that could signify a security breach. However, a lack of deep visibility into network activities makes forensic investigations cumbersome and limits the team’s ability to detect attacks and assess potential data compromises. Regulatory constraints regarding network traffic management add another layer of complexity to these challenges.
Unified Protection Solution
Palo Alto Networks offers Prisma Access, a cloud-delivered security platform designed to ensure consistent protection across all applications, users, devices, and data, irrespective of their location. This platform is built on a scalable and resilient cloud infrastructure, ensuring that security policies remain uniform across all traffic. This enables organizations to maintain visibility and control in increasingly remote work settings.
Complementing this, Fidelis Network® serves as a pivotal component of the Fidelis Elevate® platform. It provides advanced capabilities including Deep Session Inspection®, full packet capture, and automated threat detection. By leveraging these features, organizations can unearth advanced attacks that commonly bypass conventional perimeter defenses. Security teams are equipped with forensic insights and real-time threat response capabilities that are critical in complex enterprise environments.
The integration of Fidelis Network® with the Traffic Replication capability of Prisma Access significantly enhances these benefits. Now, organizations can take advantage of:
- - Decrypted deep visibility into embedded network content for all traffic types.
- - Automated threat detection and hunting, resulting in automatic alerts for anomalies.
- - Contextual mapping of the organization’s cybersecurity landscape, offering valuable insights.
- - Real-time metadata collection to support historical detection and investigation.
Empowering Zero Trust Frameworks
According to Paul Girardi, CISO at Fidelis Security, the collaboration brings significant value: "By integrating Fidelis Network with Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access, organizations gain deep, decrypted visibility and advanced threat detection in a single, unified solution. This empowers Zero Trust enforcement and speeds up incident response, especially across hybrid environments.”
This unified approach allows security teams to act proactively against threats, streamline incident response efforts, and simplify operational tasks resulting from varied security measures.
