[2015 Predictions](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/tag/2015-predictions/?ts=markdown)

If this wild 2014 taught us anything, it's that cyber threats are becoming more pervasive and no one is immune to them. All organizations -- regardless of vertical segment -- need to apply a heightened sense of urgency and sophisticated security measures that:

* Lean more towards strict security policies versus a predominantly open environment
* Address attacks at every step in an attack lifecycle
* Cover all aspects of an enterprise -- from the data center and branch offices to endpoints

We invite you to learn more about the Palo Alto Networks [Enterprise Security Platform](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/products/platforms.html), which offers a unique preventative approach with three essential components -- Next-Generation Firewall, Advanced Endpoint Protection and Threat Intelligence Cloud -- to secure computing environments, prevent known and unknown threats, and safely enable an increasingly complex and rapidly growing number of applications.
