Palo Alto Networks has introduced innovations for Prisma® SASE specifically designed for Managed Service Providers (MSP), including a hierarchical multi-tenant cloud management portal and open API framework.

Today’s hybrid workers require access to distributed applications deployed in the datacenter, multi-cloud environments, and SaaS locations. Digital acceleration involves adopting and implementing new technologies and practices to improve business agility and employee productivity.

After over a decade of 4G connectivity, leaders in global telecoms are now racing to roll out the fifth generation of broadband cellular technology and meet today’s twin challenges of increased network activity and bandwidth demands. The pressure to upgrade has only become greater due to the pandemic, which shifted the global workforce from the office to the home.

While there may not be much that can be done about siloed reporting structures of security and networking teams (although there are indications that this is changing), integrating security tools and networking tools provide a pathway to sharing data that can be critical to speeding up investigations and response times.

An SD-WAN enables automation will help service providers to easily connect to and integrate across all different compute edges required to optimize traffic and management of 5G cells. This will enable seamless transition toward a full 5G infrastructure by managing any transport available across the edge, leveraging 5G transport for those critical applications that require zero latency and higher speeds.
