Frequently Asked Questions

How does Prisma SD-WAN improve network performance compared to traditional MPLS?
Prisma SD-WAN uses AI-powered path selection to dynamically route traffic across the best available paths (broadband, 4G/5G, private circuits). This typically reduces latency by 50-95% and provides automatic failover, eliminating single points of failure inherent in MPLS networks.
What security certifications does Prisma SD-WAN hold?
Prisma SD-WAN maintains SOC 2 Type II compliance and ISO 27001 certification, meeting enterprise security and compliance requirements for healthcare, finance, and regulated industries.
Can Prisma SD-WAN integrate with existing security infrastructure?
Yes, Prisma SD-WAN integrates seamlessly with Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR, Panorama, and third-party security tools via REST APIs and syslog forwarding, providing unified threat detection and response.
How does AiDOOS accelerate Prisma SD-WAN deployment?
AiDOOS marketplace connects enterprises with certified SD-WAN implementation partners who handle architecture design, deployment, configuration, and optimization, reducing time-to-value from months to weeks.
What is the typical ROI timeline for Prisma SD-WAN implementation?
Organizations typically achieve 40-60% WAN cost reduction within 6-12 months through MPLS elimination, improved cloud connectivity, and reduced bandwidth requirements. Performance improvements are often realized within weeks.
Does Prisma SD-WAN support hybrid on-premise and cloud deployments?
Yes, Prisma SD-WAN is cloud-delivered but connects to on-premise data centers, branch offices, and cloud environments equally. It maintains security and performance across fully hybrid infrastructures.
