## AI Is Moving Faster Than You Can Govern It

The faster your teams adopt AI, the wider the gaps in what you can see, govern, and secure  
![Browser Gaps](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/images/prisma/ai-gateway/challenge-1.jpg)  
**Shadow AI**

You can't see the AI your teams already use or what it costs.  
![SaaS AI Blindspots](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/images/prisma/ai-gateway/challenge-2.jpg)  
**Data Exposure**

AI interactions can bypass policies, expose sensitive data and trigger unsafe outputs.  
![Unmanaged Exposure](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/images/prisma/ai-gateway/challenge-3.jpg)  
**Agents Overstep**

Agents act across systems without clear identity, permission or accountability.

Gartner Company to Beat

Palo Alto Networks Named a current "Company to Beat" in the June 2026 Gartner^®^ AI Vendor Race: Palo Alto Networks Is the Company to Beat in AI Security Platforms for Second Consecutive time. See the three core drivers, which we believe, are behind our market position.

[Read our blog](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/ai-security/palo-alto-networks-named-company-to-beat-in-ai-security-for-second-consecutive-year/?ts=markdown) [Gartner subscribers can read the report here](https://www.gartner.com/en/documents/8015569)  
![Lee Klarich, Chief Product and Technology Officer, Palo Alto Networks.](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/images/frontier/LeeKlarich_01.webp)  
AI agents aren't the same as users, and shouldn't be trusted in the same way. Prisma AIRS AI Gateway intercepts and optimizes agentic traffic while inspecting and securing communications to protect agents from attacks.

Additionally, through integration with Idira's agentic identity security, we'll also decouple agent permissions from human credentials, bringing true least-privilege access and robust threat protection to the agentic future.

## Frequently asked questions about Prisma AI Gateway

What is Prisma AIRS AI Gateway?  
Prisma AIRS AI Gateway is the AI control plane for the enterprise. It gives you complete visibility into all AI activity, governs who and what can access your models, data, and tools, and enforces identity-first security controls on every coding agent, enterprise agent, and copilot, with inline policy enforcement and full auditability built in.  
Who needs an AI gateway?  
Any AI leader who wants to scale AI adoption in their organization should use an AI Gateway. Whether you're using coding assistants, custom AI agents, or AI-powered SaaS applications, an AI Gateway is needed to enforce the necessary operational and security controls across the enterprise.  
How does the AI Gateway govern and secure coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, and OpenClaw?  
Every agent gets a verified identity with a defined purpose and owner, no agent accesses models, tools, or data without proving who it is first. Permissions are scoped per session and revoked automatically. Inline policy enforcement blocks data leakage, prompt injection, and unsafe outputs in real time.  
Does this lock enterprises into a specific AI vendor or model provider?  
The AI Gateway acts as a universal bridge between your enterprise and any AI provider. Whether your teams are using OpenAI, Anthropic, or internal models, all traffic routes through this single system. This gives you the freedom to swap AI vendors instantly without having to rewrite any of your internal applications.  
How does the AI Gateway help us optimize our AI costs?  
Firstly, AI Gateway enables you to see all AI traffic, which helps reduce cost overflows due to unidentified AI usage. Secondly, once the usage patterns are identified, you can impose controls such as which team can access which model, set rate limits and set quotas for models. This prevents unexpected spends from high-volume AI workloads or autonomous agents. Additionally, AI Gateway supports caching capabilities to help reduce LLM usage costs and improve efficiency.  
Will adding an AI Gateway slow down my agents?  
No. Prisma AIRS AI Gateway is deployed within your infrastructure, close to your agents and workloads, minimizing network overhead. It operates as a lightweight runtime proxy and adds minimal latency, typically less than 1 ms at p50 for prompts.  
How can I access Prisma AIRS AI Gateway?  
Prisma AIRS AI Gateway is generally available starting July 16, 2026. [Book a demo](#contact) to get started.
