Palo Alto Networks cloud security platform receives IRAP assessment

Palo Alto Networks SYDNEY Jun 30, 2022 at 08:00 AM

Sydney, June 30 2022,  Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ: PANW), the global leader in cyber security, has been independently assessed by an Infosec Registered Assessors Program (IRAP) assessor for five of its cyber security services in Australia at a PROTECTED level. The Palo Alto Networks IRAP assessment concludes that Palo Alto Networks’ systems, services, and processes are aligned with the December 2021 version of the Australian Government’s Information Security Manual (ISM). 

Assessment at PROTECTED level helps provide assurance to customers that Palo Alto Networks has the appropriate security controls in place for the processing, storage and transmission of information classified up to and including the level of PROTECTED.

"Completing the IRAP assessment demonstrates our ongoing commitment to supporting Australian government agencies in their cyber security journey. We are providing best-in-class capabilities that help protect all forms of compute, cloud native services, and access to data within the public and private sectors." said Steve Manley, Regional Vice President for Australia and New Zealand at Palo Alto Networks. “We are proud to achieve this milestone so government agencies can access Palo Alto Networks’ expanding suite of solutions and proactively eradicate evolving threats.”

 

The Palo Alto Networks portfolio IRAP assessment includes the following services:

  • WildFire: WildFire extends the capabilities of Palo Alto Networks next-generation firewalls to identify and block known and unknown malware by actively analysing it in a highly secure, cloud-based virtual environment. WildFire issues a verdict, i.e. an assessment of whether it is something malicious, unwanted, benign or phishing. 

  • Cortex Data Lake (CDL): Cortex Data Lake provides a cloud-delivered log aggregation service for Palo Alto Networks devices located in on-premises networks or cloud-based products. Cortex Data Lake: Customers can collect, transform and integrate their enterprise's security data to enable Palo Alto Networks solutions.
