Palo Alto Networks announces CI/CD security features

Palo Alto Networks unveiled its CI/CD Security module which aims to offer comprehensive software delivery pipeline security integrated into code-to-cloud capabilities within Prisma Cloud’s CNAPP platform. 

Prisma Cloud focuses on safeguarding the CI/CD environment and effectively shielding against potential open-source vulnerabilities using software composition analysis, according to the company in a blog post

“A major challenge in securing CI/CD pipelines is visibility. The myriad of third-party tools and applications running in development environments makes it almost impossible for security teams to determine if they are correctly configured,” said Ankur Shah, senior vice president of Prisma Cloud at Palo Alto Networks. “The integration of Cider’s capabilities secures the CI/CD environment and gives Prisma Cloud customers the ability to analyze individual tools, visualize how they interact with applications and each other, and identify and remediate risks.”

The CI/CD Security module empowers collaboration between DevOps and security teams, leading to enhanced security outcomes throughout the application life cycle, the company explained. 

When integrated into the existing Prisma Cloud platform, which comprises features such as Secrets Scanning, Software Composition Analysis, and Infrastructure as Code Security, it allows organizations to bolster security and risk prevention across the entire software delivery pipeline. 

According to Palo Alto Networks, this integration facilitates a comprehensive and holistic security approach that surpasses the capabilities of individual, isolated solutions.

2022: The year of hybrid work

Remote work was once considered a luxury to many, but in 2020, it became a necessity for a large portion of the workforce, as the scary and unknown COVID-19 virus sickened and even took the lives of so many people around the world.  Some workers were able to thrive in a remote setting, while others felt isolated and struggled to keep up a balance between their work and home lives. Last year saw the availability of life-saving vaccines, so companies were able to start having the conversation about what to do next. Should they keep everyone remote? Should they go back to working in the office full time? Or should they do something in between? Enter hybrid work, which offers a mix of the two. A Fall 2021 study conducted by Google revealed that over 75% of survey respondents expect hybrid work to become a standard practice within their organization within the next three years.  Thus, two years after the world abruptly shifted to widespread adoption of remote work, we are dec...

October 2025: AI updates from the past month

OpenAI announces agentic security researcher that can find and fix vulnerabilities OpenAI has released a private beta for a new AI agent called Aardvark that acts as a security researcher, finding vulnerabilities and applying fixes, at scale. “Software security is one of the most critical—and challenging—frontiers in technology. Each year, tens of thousands of new vulnerabilities are discovered across enterprise and open-source codebases. Defenders face the daunting tasks of finding and patching vulnerabilities before their adversaries do. At OpenAI, we are working to tip that balance in favor of defenders,” OpenAI wrote in a blog post . The agent continuously analyzes source code repositories to identify vulnerabilities, assess their exploitability, prioritize severity, and propose patches. Instead of using traditional analysis techniques like fuzzing of software composition analysis, Aardvark uses LLM-powered reasoning and tool-use. Cursor 2.0 enables eight agents to work in pa...
