Palo Alto Networks Partners to Provide Zero Trust Protection for Google Workspace Customers
Today’s workplace has changed. The shift from in-person to remote has dramatically reshaped how and where work gets done. To accommodate this reality, forward-thinking businesses are adapting, pursuing a new digital agenda that changes how we operate, innovate and communicate. Google Workspace continues to play a foundational role in this transformation by providing the productivity and collaboration tools that enable employees to explore flexible work styles that change how they connect, create and collaborate.
However, this endeavor has important cybersecurity implications. The same array of technologies and work styles driving operational transformation also brings added exposure and risk. Most notably, the lack of control over devices, user access and SaaS application usage, which introduces risks of data loss, malware and non-compliance. How can we ensure secure access to business information and domains if employees connect from different devices from numerous remote locations?
To address this need, we are proud to continue our partnership with Google Workspace to help organizations collaborate and communicate securely in today’s hybrid work environment. As the number and types of cybersecurity threats continue to rise, Palo Alto Networks is partnering with Google to provide subscribers with a variety of integrated security features that enable organizations to achieve their digital initiatives.
Through the partnership, Workspace customers have the opportunity to extend security coverage with a complete Zero Trust solution across all devices and users, from any location.
