When organizations engage in merger and acquisition (M&A) activity, a critical
and often overlooked technical requirement is the need to update existing network
gateways. These gateways, which serve as essential connection points, frequently
bear the brand name of the original company. To ensure a seamless transition and
maintain business continuity, these gateways must either cease referencing the old
brand or adopt the new one. This is where the functionality of Prisma Access becomes
invaluable. By integrating this capability, Prisma Access allows for the effortless
renaming of gateways, ensuring the new
brand name is reflected not only in the user interface (UI) but also consistently
across all logs and any other system references. This update is crucial for a smooth
operational handover and prevents confusion among users and IT administrators.
Ultimately, this functionality simplifies the post-merger integration process,
allowing the organization to operate cohesively under a unified brand identity
without the need for a costly and disruptive infrastructure overhaul.
