Strengthening Private 5G Security Through Partnerships | Palo Alto Networks, Ericsson, Nokia & NTT DATA

Collaboration drives stronger private 5G security. Meir Cohen of Palo Alto Networks explains how partnerships with Ericsson, Nokia, and NTT DATA create pre-tested, integrated solutions, helping enterprises achieve reliable, secure, and scalable connectivity for industrial innovation.

We are very proud of our growing private 5G ecosystem. Our goal is to expand and collaborate with all the key partners across the industry.

At the end of the day, customers aren’t simply buying a network, a firewall, or an individual technology component—they’re buying a use case. What they truly want is a business outcome enabled by secure and reliable connectivity.

As vendors, the best thing we can do is to collaborate closely across the ecosystem to deliver pre-integrated, validated solutions. By testing our products together with partners like Ericsson, Nokia, and NTT DATA, we ensure that customers receive a ready-to-deploy solution capable of securely handling their mission-critical use cases and operational traffic.

We take great pride in our partnerships and deeply appreciate the joint efforts that go into this important mission—to make private 5G networks secure, resilient, and ready for industrial-scale innovation.
