Palo Alto
The evolution of the application landscape has made it more difficult for firewalls to protect the corporate network. An increasing number of consumer and business applications are using sophisticated security evasion techniques such as dynamic or random port numbers, and application emulation/tunneling. The result is an enterprise network that is rife with unapproved and uncontrollable applications - unseen by traditional firewalls - that brings unwanted exposure to a wide range of security and compliance related risks.
To address the loss of application visibility and control, IT organizations need a set of tools that address the following requirements:
- Enables user-based application visibility and control for all applications, across all ports.
- Stops malware and application vulnerability exploits in real-time.
- Simplifies security administration through unified policy controls.
- Facilitates enterprise-wide web surfing policies.
SOLUTIONS
- Application Visibility & Control
- Real-time Threat Prevention
- Consolidate Security Devices
- Monitor & Control Web Surfing

A new generation of collaborative Internet applications is flooding today’s corporate networks. These applications range from Salesforce and WebEx; to Facebook and YouTube; to Skype and BitTorrent. While these applications provide varying degrees of business value, they all carry some level of risk. To simply block these applications is not the answer. You must enable your businesses and support a new generation of employees who demand access to the applications they have grown accustomed to.
As adoption increases, IT organizations continue to lose visibility and control, putting them in a high risk environment that leads to malware attacks, data leakage and other threats. Attend this webinar to learn how you can identify and control these collaborative applications and gain all the benefits of collaboration without taking on all of the risks.
