Palo Alto Networks Cortex

Developed by Mimecast

Overview

Draw on integrated security data from across your enterprise, and a simple Mimecast integration - to identify or block compromised email users, protect your brand and prevent data leaks.

Staying one step ahead in a fast-moving threat landscape – to identify and stop sophisticated attacks - demands access to unified cyber threat insight from across your enterprise security environment.

However, organizations often lack that visibility because crucial data is locked away in siloes across cloud, endpoint and network security assets. As a result, security tools cannot draw on unified data to find and investigate threats, and trigger automated responses.

Cortex Data Lake addresses this issue. It is the only solution that:

  • Collects, integrates and normalizes all your enterprise security data to provide a single, unified view of threat data.
  • Stores your data in a secure, encrypted, jurisdiction-specific cloud environment, to reduce complexity, storage and compute costs.
  • Runs advanced AI and machine learning to constantly learn from new data.
  • Integrates with third party solutions to enable automated, streamlined security operations.
