Palo Alto Networks Prisma AIRS™ is a purpose-built, centralized, comprehensive security platform.

Comprehensive AI & infrastructure security

- It protects the entire AI ecosystem, which includes applications, agents, models, and data.

- It secures your broader network infrastructure. This includes containerized, virtualized, and traditional applications.

- Prisma AIRS protects assets deployed across all environments—public, private, hybrid, and on-premises infrastructure.

- It defends against both AI-specific and traditional network threats across all OSI layers (1-7).

Key capabilities

• Prisma AIRS AI Runtime: Network Intercept

  An inline network security intercept that provides real-time, AI-powered network protection. It monitors your cloud network architecture for AI-specific and conventional network attacks. It secures your next-generation AI applications, AI models, and AI datasets from network threats such as prompt injections, sensitive data leakage, insecure output (for example, malware and URLs), and model DoS attacks.

  It provides inline protection with a comprehensive security solution across all OSI layers (1-7):
  • Discover cloud assets and correlate AI and non-AI network traffic interactions.
  • Deploy inline protection based on risk analysis and monitor potential threats at runtime.
  • Defend your cloud ecosystem by creating and enforcing security policy rules in real-time.
  • Investigate AI security logs and threat logs in real-time.


• Prisma AIRS AI Runtime: API Intercept

  It secures your AI applications, AI data, and AI agents by embedding Security-as-Code directly into your source code. The APIs scan prompts and model responses to identify potential threats programmatically and provide actionable recommendations. This includes protection against threats such as prompt injections, insecure outputs, and sensitive data loss, operating at OSI layers 4-7.

  • Onboard and activate Prisma AIRS in Strata Cloud Manager.
  • Generate API keys and enable threat detections in an API security profile.
  • Monitor scanned applications and detect threats using the scan APIs.
  • Analyze API scan logs for comprehensive threat visibility.

Centralized management

Manage Prisma AIRS AI Runtime: Network intercept through Strata Cloud Manager or Panorama for centralized control and full visibility, and API intercept through Strata Cloud Manager for API keys, security profiles, and scan logs.
