Palo Alto Networks Revolutionizes Cloud Security With Industry-First Integrated Code to Cloud Intelligence

PR Newswire | October 23, 2023

In the last decade, organizations have begun building and deploying cloud applications at an unprecedented pace, and there's no sign of slowing down. According to Gartner, 65% of application workloads will be optimized or ready for cloud delivery by 2027 — up from 45% in 2022. Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ: PANW) today reimagined how enterprises approach cloud security with the industry's first integrated Code to Cloud intelligence introduced as part of the Prisma® Cloud Darwin release. Today marks a "Darwin moment" for cloud security as Prisma Cloud pushes organizations to evolve beyond single point solutions and adopt a holistic approach that provides a single source of truth. While the cloud offers exceptional agility and efficiency, it introduces major security risks that have become increasingly widespread — 80% of security exposures are found in cloud environments, according to the company's Unit 42 Threat Intelligence team, which can result in large-scale breaches. These rising cloud attacks and the velocity of cloud application development are outpacing the speed at which security teams can protect their organizations. Current approaches for code-to-cloud security are siloed, with the average organization relying on six to ten tools for securing cloud infrastructure alone. Having disparate security tools leads to an incomplete security posture and creates a massive operational burden for security teams. With its new Code to Cloud intelligence, Prisma Cloud — the industry's most complete cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) — offers a single trusted place that connects insights from the developer environment through application runtime for security teams to contextualize alerts and pinpoint remediations. This intelligence effectively prevents risk and stops breaches while enhancing the end-user experience and improving developer and security team collaboration. "The only way to secure applications from code to cloud is by fending off risk from entering the development pipeline and preventing breaches of applications in production. This can only be achieved through an intelligent CNAPP platform like Prisma Cloud that gathers intelligence throughout the application lifecycle so security teams can precisely trace vulnerabilities and misconfigurations back to their origin in the source code. Prisma Cloud's Darwin release simplifies cloud security and improves productivity and collaboration across code, infrastructure, and runtime security." Ankur Shah, senior vice president, Prisma Cloud, Palo Alto Networks In many organizations, the ratio of developers to security professionals can be 100 to 1, resulting in understaffed teams. The current approach of working in silos does not guarantee comprehensive code to cloud security. This gap will widen as developers increasingly use AI to write and deploy code more quickly. Prisma Cloud, now with Code to Cloud intelligence, fosters collaboration between developers and security professionals by linking production security issues to specific remediation recommendations in code. Melinda Marks, practice director, Enterprise Security Group, said: "Today's reality is we face a cybersecurity skills shortage, especially in cloud security, while organizations are increasingly leveraging cloud services for faster application development to best serve customers and drive business results. At the same time, we have a rapidly evolving threat landscape increasingly targeting cloud workloads. So, it's crucial to invest in an effective security solution that supports increased development productivity from code to cloud to enable security teams to optimize security risk mitigation and protect their applications to enable business growth." Chris Bogaards, vice president of IT security, Global Atlantic Financial Group, said: "Our greatest challenge before Prisma Cloud was gaining clear visibility into what was occurring in our cloud applications and what security alerts to prioritize. Our developers freely create applications with a myriad of tools not knowing what risks they're introducing into the organization. With Prisma Cloud, we now have a simple, yet comprehensive view across our entire application portfolio to understand what vulnerabilities we have, which ones to prioritize and how to fix them."

IBM Redesigns Cloud-Native SIEM to Level-up Security

IBM | November 08, 2023

The cloud-native SIEM enhances scalability, speed, and flexibility while leveraging AI for improved alert prioritization and response. Cloud-native QRadar SIEM is built on an open foundation, supporting interoperability with multi-vendor tools and cloud platforms. IBM plans to introduce generative AI capabilities in early 2024. IBM introduced a significant transformation to its flagship IBM QRadar SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) product. The new QRadar SIEM is redesigned on a cloud-native architecture tailored for hybrid cloud environments, with a strong focus on scale, speed, and flexibility. This update aims to empower security teams by enabling AI and security analysts to work together efficiently. In fact, SOC professionals get to less than half (49%) of the alerts that they're supposed to review within a typical workday, according to a recent global survey. [Source- Cision PR Newswire] The cloud-native QRadar SIEM builds upon the strong foundation of its predecessor, offering efficient data ingestion, rapid search capabilities, and analytics at scale. It is based on an open foundation and is part of the QRadar Suite, IBM's integrated threat detection and response software portfolio. As hybrid cloud environments expand and evolve rapidly, the security challenges become increasingly complex. The growing attack surface makes it difficult for security professionals to identify true threats amid the noise, leading to delayed threat responses. The new cloud-native QRadar SIEM addresses these challenges by leveraging AI to manage repetitive tasks and streamline the detection and response process for high-priority security incidents. Built on Red Hat OpenShift, QRadar SIEM is designed to be open at its core, allowing for deep interoperability with multi-vendor tools and cloud platforms. It supports common detection rules (SIGMA) to quickly integrate crowdsourced threat detections from the security community. Additionally, it offers federated search and threat-hunting capabilities across various data sources, enhancing threat investigation across cloud and on-premises environments. IBM's cloud-native SIEM includes AI capabilities that automatically prioritize alerts, reduce noise, and provide context for high-priority alerts. It streamlines threat investigations by running federated searches, creating visual attack timelines, and suggesting recommended actions. It plans to introduce generative AI (GAI) capabilities for QRadar Suite in early 2024. These AI capabilities will automate tasks like report creation, threat detection, log data interpretation, and threat intelligence curation. GAI is expected to enhance the productivity of security analysts, allowing them to focus on higher-value tasks. The investment in cloud-native SIEM and AI integration reflects its commitment to delivering next-generation security operations technology. These advancements are designed to simplify security operations, reduce complexity, and provide security teams with the tools to effectively address today's complex threat landscape. The new cloud-native QRadar SIEM will be available as SaaS in Q4 2023. IBM is actively working on its AI and data platform, watsonx, to enable generative AI to support security teams in automating routine tasks, accelerating threat response, and simplifying threat investigations. This represents a significant step toward more efficient and effective security operations.
