Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ: PANW), a global leader in cybersecurity, today announced the launch of Prisma Browser for Business, a workspace designed to deliver maximum security for small businesses. This new solution enables owners to easily configure and manage the AI applications and tools they use daily, while employees can work securely from any device and location. Additionally, Prisma Browser for Business protects against threats such as phishing, ransomware, and fraud, and integrates AI controls to prevent sensitive company information from being exposed or accessed by unauthorized parties.
Currently, small businesses utilize an average of 36 browser-based applications, which handle the majority of their activities. However, 95% of companies have experienced security incidents originating within the browser itself, highlighting the growing need for a secure working environment. Coupled with the rapid adoption of AI tools by employees, it becomes even more challenging for small businesses to maintain control over their work environment, safeguard their information, and prevent unwanted consequences from AI usage.

“For most small businesses, the browser is now the office. It’s where you interact with customers, manage accounting, and use new AI tools to grow your business. But standard browsers weren’t built to stop modern cyberattacks or prevent data leaks through AI. We are providing small businesses with the same level of protection used by the world’s largest companies, but in an easy-to-use environment, simple to manage, with flexible and affordable pricing accessible to any small business.”
Prisma Browser for Business is a secure workspace designed for small businesses that enables:
- Optimizing the work environment: Easily configure and manage the AI applications and tools teams need to work safely from any device and location.
- Protecting the business: Block AI-driven phishing attacks, ransomware, and fraud before they impact the company.
- Controlling AI actions: Allow teams to leverage AI to improve productivity while preventing company information from ending up in the wrong hands.
