We are pleased to announce that Palo Alto Networks has officially completed the acquisition of Portkey.
We are moving from vision to reality by integrating Portkey’s pioneering AI Gateway directly into the fabric of the Palo Alto Networks product portfolio. Prisma AIRS AI Gateway will provide a unified vantage point to secure and govern AI agents at scale, offering a mission-critical control plane to identify, authenticate and authorize every agentic interaction in real time.
We are delivering the industry’s most comprehensive security and unified control framework for the agentic enterprise, enabling our customers to scale autonomous AI workloads with complete confidence.
The era of the AI Enterprise has arrived. Today, 81% of enterprises are piloting the use of AI agents or have fully implemented AI agent solutions. We aren't just talking about smart chatbots. We are talking about autonomous agents that execute.
By leveraging APIs and MCP servers, these agents navigate complex workflows, access sensitive data and make real-time, business-critical decisions. The question is no longer if companies will adopt AI agents, but how to securely operationalize them without putting the brakes on innovation.
AI agents are creating a new and largely invisible attack surface. The risk is not just their independence, but the lack of visibility and accountability. Without a centralized enforcement layer for operational and security controls, every team that deploys an agent may unintentionally expose the enterprise to unauthorized data access and heightened security risks.
To solve this, Palo Alto Networks is redefining security for the agentic era. We recently introduced Prisma AIRS™ 3.0, the industry’s first platform to secure the entire agentic AI lifecycle. Portkey's acquisition accelerates that momentum.
Portkey's AI Gateway will be integrated into Prisma AIRS to deliver the unified control plane that enterprises need to operationalise and secure AI apps and agents at scale.
Moving from “chaos to control” requires a centralized approach to governance. Currently, many AI initiatives are hindered by fragmented security and a lack of oversight. The AI Gateway solves this by providing a unified vantage point where organizations can enforce consistent policies across all models and agents, ensuring every interaction is identified, authenticated and authorized in real time within a single governing framework.
The Prisma AIRS AI Gateway will establish a mission-critical control plane for the agentic enterprise, enabling teams to move autonomous workloads from development into at-scale production with confidence. With operational features like a unified API to LLMs, an agent registry, semantic routing and caching, the AI Gateway equips enterprises with complete control in one platform. By serving as a centralized enforcement point at the center of Prisma AIRS for all agent traffic, the AI Gateway will provide critical security functions, including Agent Artifact scanning, automated Red Teaming and Runtime Security needed to monitor behavior, route requests and mitigate risks in real time. Crucially, the AI Gateway will reinforce Agent Identity Security via Idira (formerly CyberArk), applying strict protocols to ensure every autonomous action is authenticated and governed by least-privilege controls.
Our vision is for the Prisma AIRS AI Gateway to serve as the industry blueprint for enterprises in the agentic era. By making security a foundational component of the operational lifecycle, we are empowering enterprises to build and govern an AI ecosystem that is secure by design.
The era of AI Enterprises is here. We’re making sure it is secure by design. The complexity of managing agents and securing them has long created friction in enterprises. With the integration of Portkey into Prisma AIRS, we will remove the trade-off between agent autonomy and authority. We are ensuring that as businesses accelerate into the era of autonomous agents, the security architecture isn’t just keeping up, it is setting the pace.
