Agari and Palo Alto agree to threat intelligence data exchange

Agari has entered into an agreement with Palo Alto Networks, the leader in enterprise security.

Per the agreement, Agari will provide email-based threat intelligence data to the Palo Alto Networks Threat Intelligence Cloud. This data will help enhance threat prevention of malware and advanced persistent threats (APTs) globally.


Agari’s threat intelligence data is generated in near real-time by its Big Data Analytics Platform, analysing more than 6 billion suspicious email messages per day. Agari’s unique Trust Detection Network detects messages that are not authentic and flags 2.4 million suspicious URLs per month, which can then be assessed by Palo Alto Networks to confirm the risk associated with the URLs.


Once a URL is confirmed dangerous, the Palo Alto Networks Threat Intelligence Cloud and Next-Generation Firewalls – key components of the Palo Alto Networks enterprise security platform – filter and protect its users against the newly discovered threats. Agari will in turn be able to query the Palo Alto Networks Threat Intelligence Cloud to identify possible email-based attacks and suspicious or malicious URLs.


“Agari’s unique data will add another feed into our Threat Intelligence Cloud that will help prevent users from reaching malicious web sites and the resulting attacks from penetrating enterprise networks,” said Chad Kinzelberg, senior vice president of business and corporate development at Palo Alto Networks.


“The combination of data brought together by Agari and Palo Alto Networks benefits customers of both companies with an additional layer of threat analytics, fast detection and robust prevention – all designed to eliminate cyber attacks in new and innovative ways,” said Alexander García-Tobar, vice president of business and corporate development at Agari.
