🚀 KDDI Corporation has launched the "SASE Gateway powered by Palo Alto Networks" using the new SP Interconnect (SPI) architecture to directly link carrier-grade closed networks (WVS2) with Prisma SASE. The service eliminates IPsec overhead, enhances performance and flexibility for Japanese enterprises, and centralizes security management under a single policy engine. It can be extended with Cortex XDR, Prisma Browser and SOC/IR services to support AI adoption, hybrid work and cloud migration.

🚀 Palo Alto Networks announced it was named a Leader in Gartner’s 2026 Magic Quadrants for both SASE and SSE, the fourth consecutive year it has achieved this distinction. The company highlights its Prisma Access and Prisma SASE platforms as leading in execution and vision, and emphasizes AI-driven defenses and agent-aware security to address emerging risks from GenAI and Frontier AI. Palo Alto cites growth metrics and customer adoption to validate its strategic direction.

🔒 Prisma Browser added WebAuthn redirection to its in-browser RDP client, becoming the first non-Windows client to support Microsoft’s MS-RDPEWA protocol. The team found gaps in the spec, reverse-engineered undocumented Windows server behavior, and created a custom Chromium extension API to accept precomputed clientDataHash values. This approach reuses Chromium’s FIDO2 stack to support USB keys, Touch ID, Windows Hello and phone-as-authenticator transports.

🚀 Palo Alto Networks is launching a local cloud location for Prisma® AIRS™ in Japan to secure emerging AI deployments. The expansion provides domestic data residency, low-latency processing, and phased rollout of comprehensive AI security features for models, agents, and artifacts. It aims to help Japanese organizations adopt Generative AI and agentic workflows with improved operational efficiency and cyber resilience.

🔒 Palo Alto Networks and Databricks announce an integrated runtime security solution to protect agentic AI across the enterprise. The partnership embeds Prisma AIRS into the Databricks Unity AI Gateway to provide centralized governance, real-time inspection, and policy-driven enforcement for prompts, tool calls, and model interactions. This approach aims to prevent prompt injections, data exfiltration, and malicious tool usage while enabling faster, secure AI deployments.

🔧 Palo Alto Networks announces the general availability of the ADEM Universal Agent, a hardware-agnostic telemetry agent for Prisma Access designed to deliver consistent, high-fidelity data from branch and edge sites. The agent can run on VMs or containers, enabling synthetic testing, hop-by-hop path analysis, and overlay/underlay visibility regardless of on-prem hardware. By consolidating disparate telemetry into a unified data engine, the agent reduces blind spots and accelerates root-cause identification to support automated, machine-speed operations.

🔒 Palo Alto Networks updated Prisma AIRS and its Prisma Browser to discover and map AI agents, models and connections across cloud, SaaS and endpoints, scan agent artifacts for vulnerabilities, and simulate agent-targeted attacks. Prisma AIRS 3.0 — contingent on the planned acquisition of Koi Security — will add an AI Agent Gateway to enforce agent runtime and identity security. Prisma Browser now detects user-generated AI activity, enforces content-aware boundaries, prevents sensitive data from leaking to unmanaged LLMs, and blocks prompt-injection attacks. Separately, following its CyberArk deal, Palo Alto introduced Next Generation Trust Security (NGTS) to automate certificate discovery and lifecycle management.

🔒 Palo Alto Networks today introduced Prisma AIRS 3.0, a unified security platform designed to secure the emerging AI enterprise and agentic systems across cloud, SaaS, endpoints and browsers. The release emphasizes three pillars—Discover, Assess, Protect—expanding visibility from AI applications to live maps of enterprise agents and surfacing shadow AI. New capabilities include Agent Artifact Scanning, multiagent red teaming, an AI Agent Gateway for centralized policy enforcement, and agent identity controls to govern delegated access. Palo Alto positions the platform as a single control plane to replace point solutions and manage agent-specific runtime threats.

🔧 Palo Alto Networks, ServiceNow, and Bell Canada have built a ServiceNow application that automates the full lifecycle of Prisma SASE, creating a direct bridge between security operations and service management. The Prisma SASE app accelerates deployment from months to hours by automating Day 0–Day N tasks—provisioning, ZTNA connector setup, and mobile user workflows—while eliminating swivel-chair operations by syncing incidents into a single ServiceNow interface. ServiceNow’s Service Bridge enables cross-instance support for MSPs and the app supports direct CSP ticket creation, reducing MTTR and operational overhead.

🚀 Palo Alto Networks announced that partners voted Cortex XSIAM as CRN’s 2025 Product of the Year for Security Operations Platform/SIEM and Prisma SASE as a 2025 Tech Innovator. Solution providers credited XSIAM’s AI-driven approach for sweeping the evaluation — leading in technology, revenue and customer need — and praised its ability to shift SOCs from tool management to outcome delivery. Partners highlighted Prisma SASE’s multicloud architecture, unified policies and AI copilot as essential for securing hybrid workforces, informed by feedback from over 70,000 customers and the recent Prisma SASE 4.0 release. Palo Alto frames these awards as validation of platform convergence and continued partner enablement.

🔒 Palo Alto Networks explains why the GSA OneGov agreement matters for federal AI adoption and cybersecurity. Author Eric Trexler cites Unit 42 research showing new risks—particularly AI Agent Smuggling via indirect prompt injection and agent session smuggling—and argues AI must be defended as an attack surface. The post highlights platform protections including Prisma AIRS, FedRAMP High CNAPP, and Prisma SASE to secure AI workloads, edge users, and data. It positions OneGov as a procurement shortcut for agencies to deploy AI securely and notes promotional offers through 31 January 2028.

🔒 Palo Alto Networks announced that Prisma AIRS now integrates natively with Azure AI Foundry, enabling direct prompt and response scanning through the Prisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API. The integration provides real-time, model-agnostic threat detection for prompt injection, sensitive data leakage, malicious code and URLs, and toxic outputs, and supports custom topic filters. By embedding security into AI development workflows, teams gain production-grade protections without slowing innovation; the feature is available now via an early access program.

🔒 Prisma Browser is a cloud-delivered secure enterprise browser that extends policy-aligned controls to all web sessions regardless of device or location. It isolates workspaces and enforces last-mile identity, data and threat protections, integrating with Prisma Access and Cloud Delivered Security Services powered by Precision AI. Assessed to IRAP PROTECTED, it is positioned to help Australian government and regulated organisations implement Essential Eight-aligned controls without deploying endpoint agents.

🔍 SquareX’s Last Mile Reassembly (LMR) research, disclosed at DEF CON 32, shows how attackers split and reassemble malware inside the browser to evade Secure Web Gateways (SWGs). Palo Alto Networks has become the first major SASE vendor to publicly acknowledge this class of browser-assembled evasive attacks and announced enhancements to Prisma Browser. SquareX says LMR and related Data Splicing techniques exploit channels like WebRTC and gRPC, bypassing traditional SWG and DLP controls and underscoring the need for browser-native security.
