Key to our enterprise security platform is that a combination of Next-Generation Firewall, Threat Intelligence Cloud and Advanced Endpoint Protection capabilities is more powerful than any of those underlying technologies alone to protect an organization’s most valued assets.

GlobalProtect delivers a single, integrated infrastructure for mobile security that’s unlike anything else on the market today.
For years now, many people have thought about mobile security from the perspective of MDM alone. Traditional MDM does play a vital role for managing mobile devices, but it does not provide any enforcement of network security policy, nor does it stop mobile threats in app traffic. With no option of dealing with the risk that appears in an app, traditional MDM leaves companies with no other option than to remove entire apps. But users are frustrated when their mobile devices have less functionality or their experience changes thanks to restrictive security measures.
GlobalProtect takes an entirely different approach to mobile security. Instead of relying solely on device management, GlobalProtect applies a combination of device management and network security working hand in hand, along with cloud-based intelligence on mobile apps and threats from the cloud. This allows organizations to safely enable mobile devices by removing the risk rather than removing the function that introduces the risk.
