End of Life for Panorama-based Prisma Access multi-tenancy for New customers
To ensure our customers and partners continue to benefit from the most advanced and scalable cloud management capabilities, we are evolving our approach to Prisma Access multi-tenancy.
Effective April 15, 2026, Panorama-based Prisma Access multi-tenancy will no longer be available for new (greenfield) deployments.
No impact to existing customers: Organizations currently using Panorama multi-tenancy may continue operating with full support, with no required changes to their environments or day-to-day operations.
Ongoing support commitment: Existing deployments will remain fully supported. However, as innovation shifts toward next-generation platforms, certain features introduced after April 15, 2026, may be available exclusively through the newer Strata Cloud Manager (SCM) platform.
Recommendation: We strongly recommend migrating from Panorama multi-tenancy to SCM multi-tenancy to take advantage of future enhancements and capabilities. Please contact your Palo Alto Networks account team for more details on the migration process.
For new customers and partners onboarding new deployments, we recommend SCM multi-tenancy. This platform delivers:
Enhanced capabilities and faster access to new innovations
Deeper integrations across the Strata portfolio
A more intuitive, streamlined management experience designed for scale
By adopting SCM platform from day one, customers can take advantage of the latest functionality while simplifying operations and preparing for future growth.
This platform evolution reflects our continued commitment to our customers and partners, prioritizing operational simplicity, long-term scalability, and a future-ready cloud management experience.

Automating security tasks has long been a priority for security leaders, driven by growing network complexity, a proliferation of human and machine identities, and a shortage of skilled defenders. This was highlighted in a recent IDC survey, where security automation was the number one European CISO investment priority for 2025. Automation in a SOC offers the prospect of greater cost efficiency, reduced manual tasks, improved threat detection and response, and ultimately better risk management. These are highly attractive benefits for organizations who are migrating to cloud or pursuing a cloud-first strategy, and CISOs in these organizations are attracted to the visibility and scalability offered by cloud-first SOCs. So how can UK Public Sector organizations improve the automation of security operations, and how will this change as SOCs are increasingly cloud-first? And, in this future environment, when is a human in the loop – or a machine – preferable or essential? Listen now, to experts from IDC and Palo Alto Networks who discussed the key challenges to SOC automation and offered recommendations for UK public sector security leaders.

Attackers target small businesses through the browser every day. And AI has made their attacks sophisticated enough to slip past employees and the tools meant to stop them.

It is easy to use and setup just like the browser you are using today. We look forward to seeing you there. Please note : The product is for US customers only.
