Identity Security | Secure Every Identity

Today, the rise of AI and the explosion of machine identities have made it clear that the future of security must be built on the vision that every identity requires the right level of privilege controls.

Chairman and CEO of Palo Alto Networks.

Provide the right users with secure access to the right resources at the right times.

Take control over unmanaged privileges on endpoints to significantly reduce the area of attack.

Secure privilege with comprehensive capabilities for traditional and modern infrastructure.

Automate access reviews, enable faster provisioning and unify identity governance with access management.

Manage and protect all machine identities with complete observability and automation.

Secure identities across your cloud estate with Zero Standing Privileges.

You've got questions. We've got answers.

Get the details on how Palo Alto Networks and CyberArk are unifying security for the AI era.

You will gain access to an Identity Security Platform providing capabilities across Privileged Access Management (PAM), Access Management (AM) and Identity Governance and Administration (IGA). Identity security is a standalone platform with integrations across Cortex, Prisma SASE, Prisma AIRS, and Strata platforms.

Yes. As a standalone platform, it continues to deliver best-in-class protection for all identity types, allowing organizations to enforce least privilege dynamically and automate governance to secure human, AI, and machine identities.

The integration with Cortex will add a new dimension of identity telemetry to your SOC. Analysts will gain deeper context—knowing not just what happened, but who did it and with what privileges. This allows for an instantaneous feedback loop where the system can automatically revoke entitlements or rotate credentials the moment a risky session is detected.

The Identity Security Platform discovers and classifies AI agents, manages their credentials, and enforces least-privilege entitlements. Combined with Prisma AIRS, it provides the observability and guardrails necessary to enable AI to act ethically and safely, preventing issues like model hijacking or privilege misuse.

Across Prisma SASE, identity context will enhance Zero Trust enforcement at the edge. Access decisions will be grounded in real-time evaluation of privilege, risk, and behavior, providing human users, machine services, and AI agents exactly the right level of access.

The Identity Security Platform improves productivity by replacing manual, ticket-based access with automated, just-in-time privilege controls that let users, developers, and systems get secure access instantly without slowing work. It simplifies compliance by continuously governing every identity and privilege, automatically producing the visibility, audit trails, and controls needed to meet regulatory requirements by design rather than through periodic audits. Together, this reduces operational overhead, eliminates identity silos, and allows organizations to scale innovation securely with confidence.

It is business as usual until July 31, 2026. All approved deal registrations and active quotes will be honored according to their original terms and validity periods. You do not need to re-register deals or request new quotes.

No. Your current discount structures and margin levels remain in effect as we integrate our programs. Any future changes to the program structure will be communicated with significant advance notice to allow you to plan accordingly.

Please continue to place orders exactly as you do today. Whether you buy through distribution or direct, the operational mechanics (PO submission, billing, shipping) remain unchanged for the immediate future.

Please continue to work with your existing Channel Account Manager and sales teams. We know that relationships drive business, and we are prioritizing continuity. If there are any territory alignments in the future, you will be personally introduced to your new well beforehand.

Support processes remain distinct. Please continue to use the CyberArk support portal and phone numbers for CyberArk products. Service Level Agreements (SLAs) on existing contracts will be fully upheld.

Your existing partner agreement with CyberArk remains valid; however, we encourage you to visit the Palo Alto Networks website to "Become a Partner" so you can take advantage of benefits such as rebates and discounts as soon as possible.

All accrued MDF and Co-op funds remain available for use. We encourage you to execute your planned marketing activities. Please continue to submit claims through the existing portal.

For now, you are authorized to sell the products associated with your current contract. We are actively working on a "Cross-Sell" program that will allow qualified partners to sell the combined portfolio. We will details on how to qualify for the broader portfolio as they become available.

We purchased CyberArk because of the strength of its technology. We intend to invest in and support the core product lines. As we integrate our engineering teams, we will release a unified roadmap that highlights how these technologies will converge to add more value to your customers.

You can assure customers that there will be no disruption to their service or support. This acquisition will provide them with greater stability and access to a wider range of solutions from a single vendor.
