GTT Expands Secure Connect with Palo Alto Networks Prisma SASE for a Unified, Managed Security

modernize cybersecurity SASE

GTT has extended its Secure Connect platform by adding Palo Alto Networks’ Prisma SASE to its managed service lineup. This brings together networking and security under a single managed service, simplifying operations for distributed enterprises while addressing both performance and compliance.

Unlike many single-vendor SASE offerings that either lean heavily into security or prioritize networking, GTT’s approach holds both to the same standard. The company combines Palo Alto Networks’ cloud-native security with GTT’s Tier 1 global IP backbone to deliver performance, visibility, and scale—all within a managed service model. That’s the backbone of its Envision strategy, which arms customers and partners with real-time insights, AI-driven analytics, and centralized policy control.

“We don’t compromise,” said Sara Seegers, GTT Senior Vice President, Channel Partner Solutions, Americas. “What sets us apart is the combination of enterprise-grade security, robust connectivity, and transparency through our Envision platform. It gives our partners a clear story to tell - and the tools to deliver faster, more confidently.”

Meeting Compliance Needs Without Local Workarounds

Industries like healthcare, manufacturing, and financial services face mounting pressure to align global standards with local data regulations. GTT’s managed SASE setup is built for that complexity. Global policy enforcement is built into the service, but it’s flexible enough to account for data sovereignty and regional compliance mandates.

This makes it easier for partners to enter regulated verticals without building bespoke solutions for every region. Through EnvisionDX, customers and partners also get location-specific insights into user performance and compliance, so risks can be flagged and addressed quickly. That visibility adds a layer of assurance - especially critical when operating across jurisdictions.

Seegers put it simply: “You’re not just selling connectivity or security - you’re helping customers validate adherence, reduce risk, and scale with confidence.”

Built for MSPs, MSSPs, and Partners Focused on Scalable Growth

For MSPs, MSSPs, and Partners, GTT’s expanded SASE solution is more than just a product add-on. It’s a model built with profitability in mind. With EnvisionEDGE enabling virtual deployments, MSSPs can speed up onboarding, reduce hardware needs, and avoid costly site visits. That’s critical for reducing delivery costs and improving margin.

EnvisionDX supports long-term success by providing advanced analytics on users, apps, and network performance. That means issues can be resolved before they escalate, reducing support overhead and improving customer retention.

Seegers said it best: “This isn’t just a managed SASE product - it’s a scalable, margin-friendly service that helps partners grow without burning out their teams.”

As enterprises demand tighter integration between security and networking, GTT’s move to offer a fully managed single-vendor SASE with Palo Alto Networks puts it in a strong position. With global reach, real-time visibility, and automation baked in, GTT is giving partners and customers a way to move fast, stay secure, and adapt to whatever comes next.
