Aeris Integrates with Palo Alto Networks to Secure the Wireless IoT Blind Spot with Agentless, Global SASE
Aeris, a leader in wireless management platforms, security services and connected vehicle programs, today announced it has completed its product integration with Palo Alto Networks Prisma SASE 5G. In addition, Aeris has joined an extensive ecosystem of Palo Alto Networks Technology Partners to deliver intelligent and interoperable solutions that enable joint customers with turnkey integrations. These integrations help customers more easily and confidently secure their digital transformation journey. Furthermore, these advancements are particularly important for Internet of Things solutions. IoT brings a growing demand for robust security and seamless integration.
The integration combines Aeris IoT Watchtower™ with Palo Alto Networks Prisma SASE 5G to transform how enterprises protect wireless IoT deployments. It provides a single point of control to extend security to the wireless IoT edge. Moreover, the integration provides Layer 7 security features, including Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and Data Loss Prevention (DLP), across a global footprint. By validating interoperability between these platforms, Aeris and Palo Alto Networks allow businesses to reduce their attack surface. Also, they bring previously isolated wireless IoT devices into the enterprise security fabric.
