Heavy Networking 703: Integrating ZTNA And SASE With Palo Alto Networks (Sponsored)

Today’s Heavy Networking, sponsored by Palo Alto Networks, discusses Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) across the Secure Access Service Edge (SASE). And if you don’t know what those terms mean, here are the real world issues we’re tackling today. Your network has no meaningful edge or perimeter where you can do all your secure policy enforcement. Your apps are no longer served from a couple of data centers you own. Many of the IT services your company accesses are in the cloud. You, as IT, are still expected to secure all of these conversations, even though your users aren’t in your offices and your apps aren’t in your data centers. You could think of zero trust network access, or ZTNA, as VPN evolved. It’s connectivity, but it’s also security that’s more serious than authentication and off you go. Secure access service edge, or SASE, is SD-WAN evolved. Not only do you get an overlay connectivity fabric, but you also get cloud-hosted security services baked in to enforce security policy across the wide area network. Our guest from Palo Alto Networks is Siva Rajasekaran, Director of Product Management. We discuss: * Customer concerns as they undertake SASE and ZTNA * Palo Alto Networks’ SASE architecture * Monitoring application experience in a SASE deployment * The role of client software in SASE and ZTNA * Incorporating Remote Browser Isolation (RBI) * Integrating your identity and access control systems with ZTNA and SASE * How Palo Alto Networks is bringing AI and ML to SASE * More Show Links: SASE Converge Virtual Event November 15 & 16, 2023 – Palo Alto Networks What is ZTNA 2.0? – Palo Alto Networks Why the World Needs ZTNA 2.0 – Palo Alto Networks Zero Trust Enterprise Design Guide – Palo Alto Networks Whitepaper What’s Next for Prisma SASE with New AI-Powered Innovations – Palo Alto Networks Remote Browser Isolation Enhances SWG Capabilities for Prisma Access – Palo Alto Networks
