Palo Alto Networks has agreed to acquire cloud-based SD-WAN provider CloudGenix for about $420 million in cash. Its goal is to build out the capabilities of its Prisma Access SASE platform.
Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is becoming a
common term
as applications move from data centers to the cloud and businesses struggle to manage access for distributed employees. SASE aims to provide cloud-based support and security for different applications accessed from different locations.

Palo Alto Networks plans to integrate CloudGenixs cloud-based SD-WAN products to improve onboarding for remote branches and stores into Prisma Access. This combination will extend the breadth of the Prisma Access SASE platform, address network and security transformation requirements, and accelerate the shift from SD-WAN to SASE, officials write in a statement.
