Palo Alto Networks widens industrial 5G security push with Siemens as AI factory build-out grows
Palo Alto Networks and Siemens launched a cybersecurity package for private 5G factory networks on Wednesday. Palo Alto shares rose $4.68 in U.S. trading Thursday. The package combines Siemens’ 5G gear and monitoring software with Palo Alto’s firewall, meeting IEC 62443 standards without affecting production latency. Palo Alto recently closed its $25 billion CyberArk deal and cut its fiscal 2026 profit forecast due to acquisition costs.
