MANILA, Philippines — Palo Alto Networks, the global cybersecurity leader, has officially launched Palo Alto Networks Prisma AIRS 2.0, a next-generation AI security platform designed to safeguard every layer of enterprise AI — from autonomous agents to the models that power them.
This major upgrade integrates capabilities from Protect AI, providing enterprises with end-to-end protection across the entire AI application lifecycle. As 78% of organizations embrace AI, only 6% have proper safeguards. Prisma AIRS 2.0 directly addresses that gap by giving companies the tools to innovate securely.
“AI is transforming every enterprise, creating extraordinary opportunities and new risks,” said Anand Oswal, Executive Vice President of Network Security, Palo Alto Networks. “With Prisma AIRS 2.0, we’re redefining what it means to secure AI at scale — making security an accelerator for innovation, not a roadblock.”
How Palo Alto Networks Prisma AIRS 2.0 Protects Enterprise AI
Prisma AIRS 2.0 connects AI agent defense, model inspection, and continuous red teaming in one unified platform. It offers real-time visibility, control, and protection for enterprises adopting AI systems at scale.
Trusted by top organizations in finance, healthcare, and government, Prisma AIRS 2.0 ensures AI systems stay secure and compliant through three key modules:
1. AI Agent Security — Protecting the Autonomous Workforce
Prisma AIRS 2.0 provides real-time, in-line defense against prompt injections, tool misuse, and rogue agent activity. It discovers and inventories all AI agents in use, including unsanctioned “Shadow AI,” ensuring enterprises maintain full visibility and control.
2. AI Red Teaming — Continuous, Autonomous Testing
Unlike traditional testing, Prisma AIRS 2.0 uses autonomous red teaming to simulate real-world attacks with more than 500 specialized techniques. This continuous approach finds vulnerabilities before they’re exploited — ensuring proactive defense and resilience.
3. AI Model Security — Shielding Open-Source Deployments
The platform performs deep architectural scans to detect advanced AI-native threats such as data poisoning, backdoors, and hidden malicious code. It also provides full visibility into a model’s “ingredients,” including datasets, dependencies, and licenses, helping organizations meet governance and compliance standards.
Palo Alto Networks Prisma AIRS 2.0: Securing the Future of AI
The release of Palo Alto Networks Prisma AIRS 2.0 sets a new industry benchmark for AI defense. It supports emerging applications like Cortex® AgentiX™ for autonomous workforces and prepares enterprises for future computational threats such as quantum risks.
Palo Alto Networks continues to build AI-driven cybersecurity solutions that evolve faster than modern threats, empowering organizations to adopt AI confidently while maintaining strict protection standards.
Prisma AIRS 2.0 is available now. To explore the platform, visit the official Palo Alto Networks Newsroom or register for Ignite: What’s Next on October 28 for live demos and industry insights.
