AT&T and Palo Alto Networks Launch Joint SASE Solution to Secure Business Connectivity

AT&T has partnered with Palo Alto Networks to deliver a new secure connectivity solution designed to meet the evolving cybersecurity demands of modern businesses. The new offering, called AT&T Dynamic Defense with Palo Alto Networks, integrates security directly into the network infrastructure to provide real-time threat prevention and AI-optimized network protection.

The joint solution combines AT&T’s wireline and wireless connectivity with Palo Alto Networks' SASE platform, Prisma Access, to provide a unified security framework across all devices and locations. Businesses will gain access to capabilities such as Zero Trust Network Access, secure web gateways, data loss prevention, and cloud access security brokering—all centrally managed through Strata Cloud Manager. The goal is to give organizations seamless visibility and control over security, even in distributed and hybrid work environments.

In addition to the core platform, the two companies will also roll out a co-branded secure browser solution aimed at safeguarding enterprise web activity. Built on Palo Alto Networks’ browser security technology and backed by AT&T’s infrastructure, the browser will extend protection to users regardless of device or location, offering advanced web threat defense with built-in SASE integration.

Customer trials for the new offering will begin this summer, with general availability planned later in the year. As businesses continue to navigate an increasingly complex threat landscape, the partnership reflects a broader trend toward integrated, network-native security solutions that prioritize both protection and performance.
