2025 Gartner^® Magic Quadrant™ for SASE Platforms

We’re proud to announce that Palo Alto Networks has been named a Leader for the third time in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for SASE Platforms, positioned highest on the Ability to Execute axis. We believe this continued recognition underscores our strong execution capabilities and our pioneership in delivering a unified, AI-powered platform.

This recognition comes on the heels of other recognitions, including being named a Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Security Service Edge (SSE) and in the 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant for SD-WAN, making Palo Alto Networks the only vendor being recognized as a Leader in all three Magic Quadrants. In our opinion, it validates our vision to simplify and secure the modern enterprise through an integrated, cloud-delivered solution.
