Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation CASB

What Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation CASB is

Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation CASB is a web-based cloud access security broker with a hybrid deployment model. It provides both inline controls and API-based controls for managing software-as-a-service security. Listed capabilities include data loss prevention controls, shadow IT discovery, and threat detection. These functions address controlling cloud-service activity, identifying services used outside an organization’s known set, and detecting threats. The product comes from Palo Alto Networks, a company founded in 2005 and headquartered in Santa Clara, California, USA. Its pricing model is paid, with pricing available on request. Organizations can therefore assess it based on the combination of inline and API control methods, DLP, discovery, and detection capabilities. The web platform designation indicates access through the web, while the listed controls describe the main security functions provided for SaaS environments.
