Palo Alto Networks unveils autonomous security platform

Palo Alto Networks has launched Cortex XSIAM, an AI-driven platform that it claims can revolutionise the way data, analytics and automation are deployed by security firms.

 According to Palo Alto, Extended Security Intelligence & Automation Management (XSIAM) turns widespread infrastructure telemetry into an intelligent data foundation to fuel best-in-class artificial intelligence and dramatically accelerate threat response.

Built from the ground up as an autonomous security platform, XSIAM will disrupt the multibillion-dollar SIEM category by offering a modern alternative that can stay ahead of today’s threat landscape.

Palo Alto claims XSIAM is the revolutionary approach that collects granular data — not just logs and alerts —  to drive machine learning for natively autonomous response actions, such as cross-correlation of alerts and data, detection of highly sophisticated, emerging threats, and automated remediation based on native threat intelligence and attack surface data.

Specifically, Cortex XSIAM will transform security operations by enabling organizations to build an intelligent data foundation while cutting costs, ingesting, normalising and integrating granular data across the security infrastructure at nearly half the cost and responding in minutes rather than days.

Palo Alto Networks CEO and chairman Nikesh Arora said, “Organisations are still taking hours, or even days or months, to remediate threats — those are hours and days we no longer have given the speed and sophistication of attacks that are now commonplace. The SIEM space has been frozen and still relies heavily on human-driven workflows.

“This is not an area where we need an evolutionary approach. This is an area where we need a revolutionary approach. We have to radically reimagine how we run cybersecurity using AI, so that an enterprise is able to respond to all attacks in real time, not days, not weeks, not months.”
