5G is unlike the earlier generations of wireless networks. 5G offers many new capabilities such as lower latency, higher reliability, throughput, agile service deployment through cloud-native architectures, greater device density, etc. These new capabilities allow for innovative new services, transforming service providers and enterprise businesses.

 

5G growth is going to drive mobile networks bandwidth to 100Gbps. A new approach is needed to achieve L7 security at these rates with software-based firewalls. Integrating Palo Alto Networks firewall with NVIDIA’s data processing unit (DPU) enables industry-leading high-performance security. The NVIDIA Bluefield-2 DPU provides a rich set of network offload engines designed to address the evolving needs of security virtualized network functions in today's demanding markets such as 5G and the cloud. The Palo Alto 5G-Native security is a virtual firewall specifically designed for the security needs of 5G deployments. Come and see our accelerated 5G security demo!
