SASE Resilience and Business Continuity

Monitor your multi-region high-availability deployment to maintain security continuity during regional cloud service provider outages.
Where Can I Use This?What Do I Need?
  • Prisma Access (Managed by Strata Cloud Manager)
  • Prisma Access license
Prisma® Access allows you to deploy multi-region and multi-cloud for mobile users, remote networks, and service connections. Prisma Access expands on its multi-region high availability (HA) capabilities by adding resilience to services that integrate with Prisma Access, including the Cloud Identity Engine and Enterprise Data Loss Prevention (Enterprise DLP), with an initial rollout starting with deployments in the United States.
With SASE Resilience, these services deploy across multiple regions for each tenant. This architecture automatically mitigates the impact of regional cloud service provider (CSP) failures with no configuration required on your part. In the event of a regional outage, traffic fails over to the secondary region transparently, maintaining security continuity for your users.
To protect against CSP-wide service interruptions, you can also deploy SASE Private Location to use in-country multicloud and on-premises hosting options. These options let you maintain security continuity by routing to an alternate cloud provider or your own on-premises infrastructure when a primary CSP becomes unavailable.
The High-Availability and Resilience view in Strata Cloud Manager gives you visibility into your multi-region and multicloud deployment status so you can monitor your resilience posture and confirm that HA is active across your network security services. The Cloud Identity Engine and Enterprise DLP now have enhanced failover capabilities between cloud regions in the United States.
The following services provide multi-cloud and multi-region support:
The following services provide multi-cloud and multi-region support and are viewable in the High-Availability and Resilience view:

  5. Review your deployment status.
    This view shows your multi-region and multicloud HA status for Mobile User deployments. No configuration is required—multi-region HA is managed automatically by Palo Alto Networks.
    Additional controls and coverage outside the United States are planned for future versions of Prisma Access.
