Goals / Remit
Our company is a cybersecurity company. We seek to preserve our digital way of life by preventing successful cyber attacks.
As the next-generation security company, Palo Alto Networks is leading a new era in cybersecurity by preventing advanced threats from achieving their objectives for tens of thousands of organizations around the world. Palo Alto Networks believes cybersecurity is fundamentally a math problem that currently favors malicious actors. As the cost of computing declines, adversaries can conduct increasingly automated, successful attacks at minimal cost. The Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Security Platform provides automated protection to prevent these cyberattacks. Effective automated prevention is essential to drive up the cost for a malicious actor to the point where the likelihood of a successful attack dramatically declines.Main EU files targeted
