The digital transformation era is in full swing, and organisations across all industries face the relentless challenge of securing their cloud environments while maintaining agility. An example of a successful security transformation includes the Global Atlantic Financial Group, a leading U.S. retirement and life insurance provider, tackling its cloud security challenges by implementing Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks.

This case study serves as a proven blueprint for organisations worldwide, demonstrating the power of consolidated visibility, proactive security, and automated compliance. At Konverge Australia, we specialise in bringing these enterprise-level security solutions to businesses across Australia. Whether you’re migrating legacy applications, securing a multi-cloud environment, or integrating security into your development cycle, Konverge Australia ensures a seamless transition with Palo Alto Networks’ cutting-edge security solutions.

The Cloud Security Challenge: Why Businesses Need a Proactive Approach

As organisations scale their digital infrastructure, security gaps widen. Global Atlantic Financial Group faced several critical challenges that resonate with businesses worldwide:

• Lack of Visibility & Governance: Multiple cloud environments (AWS, Azure, Oracle) created blind spots, making it hard to enforce security policies.

• Security Risks in Development & Deployment: Developers had broad access, leading to potential misconfigurations and vulnerabilities.

• Need for Automation: Traditional security approaches were too slow to address vulnerabilities in real time.

• Compliance & Risk Management: Ensuring regulatory compliance across multi-cloud environments required advanced governance tools.

These challenges are not unique to the financial sector. Australian businesses in finance, healthcare, retail, and other industries face similar threats as they move workloads to the cloud. This is where Konverge Australia, with its expertise in Palo Alto Networks solutions, becomes your trusted partner.

How Global Atlantic Overcame Security Challenges with Prisma Cloud

1. Centralised Visibility Across Multi-Cloud Environments

Before implementing Prisma Cloud, Global Atlantic had a fragmented cloud environment. The company lacked a single-pane-of-glass view across its AWS, Azure, and Oracle clouds, making it difficult to enforce security policies consistently.

With Prisma Cloud, the company:

• Gained unified visibility across all cloud assets.
• Identified and prioritised risks based on severity.
• Enforced compliance regulations automatically.

2. Proactive Security with Shift-Left Approach

One of the biggest security risks businesses face today is waiting too long to address vulnerabilities. Instead of tackling security at the final stages of application deployment, Prisma Cloud helped Global Atlantic integrate security into the development lifecycle (Shift Left security).

Benefits included:

• Developers received real-time security alerts, allowing them to fix issues before deployment.
• Security guardrails were implemented early, reducing the risk of breaches.
• Automated scanning of infrastructure as code (IaC) minimized security misconfigurations.

3. Automation and Governance for Compliance

Regulatory compliance is a top concern for businesses operating in highly regulated industries. Prisma Cloud automated Global Atlantic’s compliance management by:

• Running out-of-the-box compliance checks aligned with industry standards.
• Generating audit-ready security reports within hours instead of weeks.
• Automating risk remediation, reducing manual intervention.

This approach drastically reduced security gaps while ensuring continuous compliance.
