ANAHEIM, Calif., May 22, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- ProtectWise^TM, the leader in Cloud-Delivered Network Detection and Response, today unveiled The ProtectWise Grid^TM app for the Palo Alto Networks® (NYSE: PANW) Application Framework. With The ProtectWise Grid, organizations can achieve defense in depth with advanced analytics in Enterprise, Cloud and Industrial environments with real-time and retrospective detections.

Consuming cybersecurity innovations has become an arduous process. Organizations waste time deploying new appliances every time they want to collect a new piece of data and managing point products rather than improving security controls to stay ahead of attackers. The Palo Alto Networks Application Framework makes it easy to add new security capabilities quickly and efficiently. The framework extends the capabilities of the Palo Alto Networks Security Operating Platform, with a suite of APIs that developers can use to connect innovative apps with rich data, threat intelligence and enforcement points. Organizations gain immediate security value from apps developed by an open ecosystem of trusted innovators.

ProtectWise provides analysts with a self-service platform for cloud-powered security. The ProtectWise Grid gives analysts automated detection of advanced attacks, an unlimited packet capture retention window, and the ability to intuitively interact with massive volumes of security data through an advanced visual presentation — transforming how organizations handle complex threats with security delivered entirely from the cloud. The ProtectWise Grid App for the Palo Alto Networks Application Framework gives analysts access to valuable data from the Palo Alto Networks Security Operating Platform, correlated with events from ProtectWise to help them investigate and remediate events in real time.
