Private wireless services specialist Celona will soon announce a major integration with cybersecurity supplier Palo Alto Networks. With this, both partners expect to enhance the security of enterprise devices connecting through private 4G and 5G wireless mobile networks.
The integration of Celona’s Orchestrator network management platform with Palo Alto’s Cortex will be able to be mapped to The time has come to support automated Zero Trust policy enforcement.
Such policies could cover areas such as security and incident profiling, secure access, and Internet of Things (IoT) device behavior. Additionally, open application programming interfaces (APIs) enable the exchange of client information between Palo Alto’s IoT platform and Serona’s edge operating system (OS).
Leonid Burakovsky, Vice President of Product Management 5G Security at Palo Alto Networks, said:
“Security built on Zero Trust architecture principles has the potential to drive digital transformation across all industries, from manufacturing and industrial sectors to energy, healthcare and more.
“With Celona, we offer businesses an unparalleled solution through seamless and secure integration with Celona’s open 4G/5G architecture.”
Darish Afshar, Vice President of Business Development and Strategic Operations at Celona, added: “Our integration with Palo Alto Networks strengthens enterprise security strategies by providing a unified access fabric that supports both private 4G and 5G technologies, enabling our customers to realize the true end of the world. Two-end zero trust network security.”
The partners say the integration is specifically targeted at enterprise customers operating in sectors that make extensive use of industrial IoT, such as transportation and logistics, fueling and manufacturing, which will bring “a myriad of services to I look forward to what it will bring.” tangible benefits.”
These benefits include identifying and profiling connected IoT devices, automating risk assessments, and detecting malware, exploits, and other threats, while providing end-to-end connectivity from clients to applications over local or wide area networks. Contains functions to ensure end-end quality of service.
Additionally, by integrating Celona’s platform with Palo Alto’s next-generation firewall and IoT security products, it will be possible to set dynamic, real-time, granular security policies at the subscriber and device level, not just the IP address. . Security service licenses provided in the IoT cloud also enable further visibility, analysis and security policy or prevention by device identifiers shared across the system.
