AT&T Business and Palo Alto Networks have expanded their strategic collaboration with the launch of AT&T Dynamic Defense™ with Palo Alto Networks and AT&T SASE with Palo Alto Networks, two fully managed cybersecurity solutions designed to help enterprises secure distributed networks, hybrid workforces, and multi-cloud environments.

The new offerings integrate AI-powered cybersecurity, enterprise connectivity, and managed networking services, enabling organizations to simplify security operations while improving visibility and threat prevention across cloud, SaaS, and AI-driven environments.

AT&T Business and Palo Alto Networks Expand Enterprise Cybersecurity Portfolio

The latest collaboration between AT&T Business and Palo Alto Networks addresses the growing complexity of protecting distributed enterprises as organizations continue to adopt hybrid work, cloud applications, and AI technologies.

The companies said the new managed services combine network connectivity with integrated security, allowing enterprises to strengthen cyber resilience without increasing operational complexity.

AT&T Dynamic Defense with Palo Alto Networks Delivers AI-Powered Threat Protection

AT&T Dynamic Defense with Palo Alto Networks integrates cloud-delivered security capabilities into AT&T's global network through Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access.

The solution provides:

  • AI-driven threat prevention
  • Network-wide visibility
  • Cloud and SaaS protection
  • AI application security
  • Near real-time threat detection

The platform is designed to help enterprises secure distributed environments while improving operational efficiency.

Houston-based Wellby Financial has already deployed the solution to replace fragmented security tools with a unified enterprise cybersecurity platform.

Joe Petrocelli, Vice President of Communications Services at AT&T Business, said integrating security directly into enterprise networks enables organizations to respond faster to emerging cyber threats while reducing security complexity.

AT&T SASE with Palo Alto Networks Simplifies Secure Enterprise Connectivity

The companies also announced the general availability of AT&T SASE with Palo Alto Networks, a fully managed Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) solution that combines networking and cloud-delivered security into a single managed service.

Built on Palo Alto Networks Prisma SASE, including Prisma SD-WAN and Prisma Access, the solution helps organizations securely connect users, branch offices, applications, and cloud resources while maintaining network performance.

AT&T manages deployment, security policies, and ongoing operations, allowing enterprise IT teams to focus on business priorities rather than infrastructure management.

AI Security and Quantum Readiness

In addition to AI-powered threat protection, AT&T Business and Palo Alto Networks said both solutions provide organizations with a practical path toward quantum-resilient cybersecurity, helping enterprises prepare for future cryptographic threats.

Simone Gammeri, Chief Partnerships Officer at Palo Alto Networks, said integrating AI-powered security into enterprise connectivity enables organizations to strengthen cybersecurity while supporting business growth.

Availability

AT&T Dynamic Defense with Palo Alto Networks and AT&T SASE with Palo Alto Networks are now generally available as part of the companies' integrated enterprise cybersecurity portfolio.

The expanded collaboration reflects increasing enterprise demand for managed cybersecurity solutions that combine networking, AI-powered threat prevention, cloud security, and Zero Trust capabilities into a unified platform.
