Palo Alto Networks have announced that it has completed the acquisition of Talon Cyber Security. Palo Alto Networks will utilise Talon’s Enterprise Browser with Prisma SASE as a result.
“We are thrilled to welcome Talon to Palo Alto Networks,” said Nikesh Arora, chairman and CEO of Palo Alto Networks. “Most work today occurs via web browsers, often on unmanaged devices, which poses enormous security risks.
“Through the seamless integration of Talon’s Enterprise Browser with Prisma SASE, we will be elevating our best-in-class solution that helps provide ironclad security and data protection for all users across all applications and from any device or location.
“Additionally, we plan to extend Talon’s cutting-edge Enterprise Browser technology to our qualified SASE AI customers at no additional cost.”
In today’s evolving threat landscape, employees frequently use personal and unmanaged devices to access critical business applications, including using mobile devices alongside corporate laptops.
While this approach increases productivity, the lack of consistent security, control and visibility across devices increases security risk.
To tackle these challenges, organisations need a holistic SASE solution that securely enables users to access vital business applications regardless of their chosen device.
As part of that SASE solution, Talon’s Enterprise Browser will provide additional layers of protection against phishing attacks, web-based attacks and malicious browser extensions.
Talon also offers extensive controls to help ensure that sensitive data does not escape the confines of the browser, regardless of whether the enterprise manages the device.
