SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 11, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CloudGenix®, the category leader in enterprise SD-WAN, today announced it will showcase a new joint solution with Palo Alto Networks at Ignite ’19 Europe in Barcelona, Booth # 313. Together, CloudGenix and Palo Alto Networks have delivered a solution for securing the branch by leveraging the power of the cloud.
Traditionally enterprises have had to compromise between using a “one-box” solution vs. best-of-breed products for security and SD-WAN. Single-box solutions that combine mediocre security and mediocre SD-WAN capabilities result in operational challenges and security exposures for enterprises. However, best-of-breed products previously required separate physical or virtual appliances from different vendors that could be hard to integrate. Enterprises were faced with a conundrum, “Do I manage more appliances, or do I compromise with a mediocre ‘one-box’ solution?” Palo Alto Prisma Access and CloudGenix SD-WAN have eliminated the need for this compromise. CloudGenix SD-WAN natively integrates with Palo Alto Prisma Access cloud-delivered security to provide a solution that is pre-integrated and requires zero additional hardware for security.
The CloudGenix SD-WAN and Palo Alto Prisma Access solution extends the security perimeter from the branch to the closest Prisma Access node in the cloud on a per-application basis. Organizations can set a global security policy for an application in Panorama and it is enforced at the branch without needing any additional devices at the branch. CloudGenix securely tunnels the application flow to the closest Prisma node based on the security, performance and geo-fencing rules. This cloud-based architecture allows the addition of new security capabilities by simply subscribing to the functionality from Prisma Access cloud. Enterprises no longer have to worry about hardware headroom or software updates at the remote office. Enterprises can now react rapidly to changing threat vectors by leveraging the elastic power of the cloud.
