With the rise of branch digitalization, the rapid adoption of SaaS applications and the explosion of IoT devices, the branch has forever changed. Most SD-WAN solutions fail to provide adequate SaaS application performance and create security gaps that limit their ability to provide sufficient protection. Today’s organizations require a solution that not only delivers secure connectivity for all branch users, applications and devices but also simplifies and streamlines operations across the board.

Only Palo Alto Networks delivers a Zero Trust branch that’s built to overcome these challenges on the strengths and innovations of Prisma^® SD-WAN and SASE. Our comprehensive solution offers exceptional user experience, integrated security and operational resiliency, resulting in an ROI of up to 107%.

Palo Alto Networks is honored to be recognized as a Leader in the 2024 Gartner^® Magic Quadrant^™ for SD-WAN for the fifth time. We believe this recognition is based on the following benefits Prisma SD-WAN provides:

• Delivering end-to-end, best-in-class 5X faster application performance.
• Enforcing least-privileged access and continuous inspection to secure users, apps and devices, including IoT, while eliminating point products like sensors.
• Enabling easy onboarding of branches with one-click integration to security service edge.
• Isolating and remediating issues faster with the power of AI.
