The top three challenges they face include protecting against data loss and leakage (67%), threats to data privacy (61%), and breaches of confidentiality (53%). Helping our mutual customers move to the cloud while addressing these challenges represents a massive opportunity for NextWave partners to provide their security expertise and position the benefits of our Security Operating Platform, which supports all major public cloud services, including Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform, or GCP.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><div style=\"max-width:100%\" data-width=\"600\"><span class=\"ar-custom\" style=\"padding-bottom:50%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-86711 lozad\"  data-src=\"https:\/\/www.paloaltonetworks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/60-pct-cloud.png\" alt=\"60 pct cloud\" width=\"600\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www2.paloaltonetworks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/60-pct-cloud.png 600w, https:\/\/www2.paloaltonetworks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/60-pct-cloud-230x115.png 230w, https:\/\/www2.paloaltonetworks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/60-pct-cloud-500x250.png 500w, https:\/\/www2.paloaltonetworks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/60-pct-cloud-510x255.png 510w, https:\/\/www2.paloaltonetworks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/60-pct-cloud-80x40.png 80w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/span><\/div><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Become Familiar With Google Cloud Platform<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Whether you are curious about GCP or want to dig into technical details, we have a starting place for you! <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paloaltonetworks.com\/content\/dam\/pan\/en_US\/partners\/products\/docs\/vm\/google-cloud-platform-learning-guide.pdf\">The Google Cloud Platform Learning Guide<\/a> is the latest addition to our Learning Guide series, providing info on how to get hands-on experience.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Start or Grow Your Knowledge<\/span><\/p>\n<p>As organizations expand their adoption of GCP for big data, analytics and machine learning initiatives, protecting from threats and data loss becomes a top priority.
