World’s most comprehensive AI security platform secures autonomous agents at every step of the AI lifecycle
SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ: PANW), the global cybersecurity leader, today accelerated its vision for the future of AI with the next evolution of Prisma® AIRS™, the only unified security platform to deliver end-to-end security across the entire agentic AI lifecycle. Engineered for the agentic enterprise, Prisma AIRS enables customers to see, fix and secure agentic workflows at every step of the AI journey.
Enterprise AI adoption has rapidly expanded from one-off pilots to broad-scale deployments. However, as autonomous agents now independently access databases and execute workflows, new trust gaps and attack surfaces emerge without the proper guardrails. Prisma AIRS bridges the gap by securing not only what an AI says but also what an agent does at every point of the AI supply chain.
New capabilities of Prisma AIRS enable customers to:
- Assess agents as they move through the AI lifecycle with continuous visibility and risk evaluation from artifact scanning, red teaming and real-time posture management.
- Protect sensitive data by proactively securing autonomous processes and stopping AI-specific threats at runtime.
- Govern the agentic enterprise from one, unified security platform that centralizes enforcement, automates risk remediation and enforces identity-based policies.
Anand Oswal, Executive Vice President, Palo Alto Networks
“We are witnessing a pivot where AI is moving from an assistant to an actor, and that requires a new blueprint for security. Prisma AIRS goes beyond just another layer of defense. It is the foundational control plane for the agentic enterprise. By securing the intent and the action of AI agents, we are giving our customers the confidence to bravely deploy autonomous systems at scale.”
TBD, Chief Security Information Officer, [PANW Customer]
“Before Prisma AIRS, the challenge with scaling AI stemmed from the lack of visibility into what those models were actually doing once deployed. With Prisma AIRS, we’ve moved from reactive security to proactive governance. It allows us to track every agent and model across our global footprint, ensuring that as our AI acts, it does so within the guardrails we’ve set. It’s the only platform that gives us a complete, end-to-end view of our AI deployments, mitigating risk while creating opportunity.”
TBD, ServiceNow
“As enterprises move from experimental AI to agentic workflows, the boundary between productivity and risk has blurred. By integrating Prisma AIRS with ServiceNow AI Control Tower, we are giving organizations a ‘command center’ for the autonomous enterprise. This partnership ensures that every AI agent is not only visible and governed through ServiceNow’s workflows but also protected end to end by Prisma AIRS’ industry-leading security posture.”
