Palo Alto Networks has made key bets around the shift to cloud and the need for integrated best-in-class security.

Today Palo Alto Networks is making a further bet that cloud security must "Shift left," with security increasingly performed during the DevOps process.

With the addition of Bridgecrew, Palo Alto Networks will be the first to deliver security across the full application lifecycle.

"Shift left security is a must-have in any cloud security platform. Developers don't want to wait until runtime to find out their security is not working, and the CISO charged with protecting the entire organization certainly values higher security from fixing issues earlier in the development lifecycle."

"We are thrilled to welcome Bridgecrew, and their widely adopted and trusted developer security platform, to Palo Alto Networks. When combined, Prisma Cloud customers will benefit from having security embedded in the very foundation of their cloud infrastructure, said Nikesh Arora, chairman and CEO of Palo Alto Networks."

"We have dedicated ourselves to building developer-first tools that bridge the gap between developers and cloud security. By joining Palo Alto Networks, we will be able to bring codified cloud security to the developer community on a wider scale. We look forward to working together to continue shifting cloud security left, said Idan Tendler, co-founder and CEO of Bridgecrew."
