Software License Optimization for the Datacenter

Optimized license management is a necessity for all software licenses owned by the enterprise, from desktop to datacenter and beyond. While many organizations understand their license position for the desktop estate, the reality is that licensing in the datacenter still presents a daunting set of challenges that require a robust, automated Software License Optimization solution. Compounding this, it is difficult to take the same set of processes, technologies, and remediation techniques used to manage desktop licenses and apply them to datacenter license management. Organizations need a solution to address the unique license management requirements of enterprise IT environments including the desktop, datacenter and private and/or hybrid clouds.

Zero Trust on the Endpoint

The Forrester Zero Trust Model (Zero Trust) of information security advocates a “never trust, always verify” philosophy in protecting information resources. Though the model has traditionally been applied to network communications, it is clear that today’s cyber threats warrant a new approach in which the Zero Trust model is extended to endpoints. Palo Alto Networks® Traps™ Advanced Endpoint Protection is an innovative endpoint protection technology that prevents exploits and malicious executables, both known and unknown. It has the proven capacity to act as the enforcer for Zero Trust and to serve as a vital component of an enterprise’s security architecture and compliance suite on the endpoint.

Threat Intelligence Cloud

No organization today is immune to cybercrime. Cyber criminals are ramping up activity across the globe and utilizing new methods to evade traditional security measures. An effective network security solution must not only prevent known threats from entering and damaging the network, but also leverage global threat intelligence to protect the network from unknown threats. Traditional detection-focused solutions typically focus on a single threat vector across a specific section of the network, leaving multiple areas vulnerable to attack. In addition, these legacy solutions are made up of a “patchwork” of point products that make it very difficult to coordinate and share intelligence among the various devices. By employing the Palo Alto Networks® Threat Intelligence Cloud, businesses can reduce their attack surface, block all known threats, and leverage the global threat community to detect unknown threats and convert them into known, stoppable threats.

Protection from the Inside: Application Security Methodologies Compared

Applications are a primary target for cyber attacks. Historically, Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) have been a popular choice for protecting production applications from attack. But they have their limitations, and advice on how to bypass a WAF is readily available. Learn how context from within the application allows Runtime Application Self-protection (RASP) to provide additional protection using visibility into application configuration, logic and data flows. In this paper, the SANS Institute captures the relative capabilities and efficiencies of RASP and WAF technologies using a representative product in each category. Learn how your defense-in-depth strategy could benefit from the additional visibility of runtime protection.

Work Smarter, Not Harder, To Secure Your Applications

The most recent HP Security Cyber Risk Report revealed that vulnerabilities in production software are still pervasive. Finding software vulnerabilities is only part of the battle; actually fixing those vulnerabilities can sometimes be an elusive goal, especially when you lack access to the code. Using Runtime Application Self-Protection (RASP) as a virtual patch can simplify your application security, enabling protection for your production application vulnerabilities while you remediate the issues – or indefinitely if you choose. This paper features Maverick research from Gartner analyst, Joseph Feiman.

This white paper tells you what you need to do to stay out of cyber security attack. Read it to understand:

• Seismic shift toward application security
• Critical differentiator for RASP – access to the code
• Stop protecting your apps – time for apps to protect themselves
• The technologies that can help
