Palo Alto Networks has announced that it has completed its acquisition of Dig Security, a provider of data security posture management (DSPM).

Dig’s capabilities, seamlessly integrated into Palo Alto Networks Prisma Cloud platform, will provide organizations with near-real-time data protection across the entire cloud estate, the company says.

This will offer a comprehensive view of risks associated with cloud applications, data and infrastructure, all in one place.

“We are thrilled to welcome Dig to Palo Alto Networks,” said Nikesh Arora, Chairman and CEO, Palo Alto Networks.

“Public cloud and data are critical pieces of an enterprise’s digital footprint and their importance is only increasing with the adoption of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI).

“As a result, Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) must prioritize data protection as part of a comprehensive cloud security strategy.

“By integrating Dig’s DSPM capabilities into Prisma Cloud, we will provide customers with the critical data security capabilities and context they need to improve their overall cloud security posture.”
