According to UNIT 42 reports, 80% of security exhibitions are found on cloud attack surfaces, with a 66% increase in threats aimed at these environments. In response to this growing challenge, Cortex Cloud, the latest version of the Cloud Palud Alto Networks prism platform, unifies data, automates workflows and applies knowledge based on AI to reduce risks, prevent threats and stop attacks in real time.

This new solution natively integrates advanced detection and cloud response capacities (CDR) and native cloud application protection (CNAPP) into a unified platform, offering innovations driven by AI and automation to stop attacks in real time .

“As more critical business applications move to the cloud, cloud security must expand to include protection in the leading execution time in the industry. With Cortex Cloud, we provide the next generation of cloud security, allowing organizations to prevent, detect, investigate and respond quickly to evolving threats throughout his company, ”says Lee Klarich, product director of Palo Alto Networks .

Cortex Cloud, Cloud reinforcement

Cortex Cloud aligns with the company’s platform strategy, restructuring its cloud security solution on the Secops platform driven by Cortex. This offers a unified user experience with panels and workflows oriented by people, helping customers to achieve a protection higher than a total significantly lower cost:

  • Application security: It allows to build safe applications and prevent problems during development before they become exploitable vulnerabilities. Cortex Cloud identifies and prioritizes problems along the entire development line with end to end context
  • Cloud posture: Improves risk management in multiple clouds with prioritization driven by AI, guided solutions and automated remediation. It offers a unique user experience, with close integration in all prism cloud capabilities
  • Real -time attack detection: Natively integrates the unified Cortex XDR agent, enriched with additional cloud data, to prevent threats with advanced analysis. The new offer of “cloud execution time security” includes leaders CNAPP capabilities at no additional cost
  • Soc: Expand the SOC platform beyond what any always can offer, integrating cloud data and workflows within Cortex Xsiam to significantly reduce the average response time (MTTR) to modern threats

From prism cloud to cortex cloud: availability

Curud’s current clients will experience a fluid update to Cortex Cloud, benefiting from cloud security in real and simplified time. Cortex Xsiam customers who add Cortex Cloud will be able to adopt CNAPP capabilities integrated into the most complete and enhanced Secops platform for the world.

The platform will be available for customers in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025.
