Deloitte Expands AI Factory as a Service with Cybersecurity Enhancements from Palo Alto Networks

Deloitte is expanding its AI Factory as a Service platform to include advanced cybersecurity capabilities through a new collaboration with Palo Alto Networks. The move adds a security-first framework to Deloitte’s scalable GenAI deployment platform, helping enterprises adopt AI with greater confidence. Built on NVIDIA’s AI infrastructure, AI Factory as a Service combines Deloitte’s industry-specific use cases with accelerated computing, data management, and model design services to streamline and secure enterprise-grade GenAI rollouts.

At the core of this expansion are two cybersecurity offerings from Palo Alto Networks: Prisma AIRS and AI Access Security. Prisma AIRS supports the secure deployment of AI by protecting models, agents, data, and runtime environments. It offers features such as AI model scanning, posture management, red teaming, and runtime security. Meanwhile, AI Access Security helps manage how employees interact with third-party GenAI apps, controlling access, minimizing data leakage risk, and giving organizations real-time insight into AI tool usage.

By integrating these capabilities, Deloitte aims to address common roadblocks to AI adoption such as security, compliance, and operational risk. The platform now supports deep learning-based threat detection, AI model testing frameworks across hybrid infrastructures, and high-speed data ingestion optimized by NVIDIA Morpheus. Enterprises can also leverage NVIDIA’s NeMo Guardrails and NIM microservices for more controlled large language model (LLM) development and deployment.

Beyond threat protection, Deloitte’s enhanced platform promotes responsible AI adoption through governance, lifecycle management, and regulatory alignment. With enterprise-scale GPU utilization and end-to-end infrastructure security, organizations can deploy GenAI applications faster, safer, and with the guardrails needed to support evolving compliance and risk expectations.
