San Antonio, TX, May 30, 2019 – Digital Defense, Inc. today announced the availability of its Frontline.Cloud app on Cortex™ by Palo Alto Networks – the industry’s only open and integrated AI-based continuous security platform. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE / PRURGENT
Building on Cortex allows partners to use normalized and stitched together data from customers’ entire enterprises to build cloud-based apps that constantly deliver innovative cybersecurity capabilities to joint customers.
Frontline.Cloud is the industry's only true on-demand vulnerability and threat asset risk posture assessment app built for hybrid cloud environments. The app lets security teams focus on identifying and prioritizing the most important assets to proactively harden them against an attack without requiring agents. Utilizing data from Cortex Data Lake, the Frontline.Cloud app enables security teams to be more effective in identifying compromised assets in order to quickly prioritize and remediate systems under attack with active threat and business context. Palo Alto Networks customers can see the app in action at the Ignite ’19 Conference in Austin, Texas on June 3-6.
