COMUNICATO STAMPA – CONTENUTO PROMOZIONALE
AMSTERDAM and MUNICH, June 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ: PANW) and Deutsche Telekom (XETRA: DTE) today announced Sovereign Cortex with T Security. This solution brings the Palo Alto Networks Cortex® AI-driven SecOps platform to Europe’s most regulated industries, with data sovereignty controls independently governed by Deutsche Telekom.
Today’s AI-driven threat landscape demands immediate, real time effective cybersecurity. Yet many of Europe’s regulated organisations – in healthcare, the public sector, financial services and critical national infrastructure – face a fundamental challenge: adopting cloud-delivered AI security, while meeting Europe’s growing sovereignty requirements. Increasingly codified in GDPR, NIS2 and DORA and equivalent European frameworks, these requirements demand demonstrable controls that go beyond data residency: control over who can access data, how it is encrypted, how provider access is audited, and how it is handled in support operations.
Sovereign Cortex with T Security addresses these requirements and enables Europe’s most regulated organisations to adopt cloud-delivered security without sovereignty compromise. Anchored by Deutsche Telekom, as the independent European trust partner, it delivers the full capabilities of the Cortex platform with purpose-built sovereignty controls for Europe’s regulatory environment.
In addition to the data residency controls we provide customers for all of our cloud services, Sovereign Cortex with T Security provides additional sovereign controls for every layer of the environment. This includes customer and systems (telemetry) data, encryption keys, and independently audited access logs. Furthermore, all support personnel are based exclusively in Europe, and all contractual agreements are governed by European law.
Helmut Reisinger, CEO of EMEA at Palo Alto Networks”European organisations — from public authorities to critical infrastructure operators — have been clear with us: they need real time AI-driven security and they need verifiable data sovereignty controls, and they should not have to choose between them. This is our direct response to what customers and regulators across Europe have been asking for – a service that honours Europe’s sovereignty, maintains the security effectiveness and modular platformization our customers depend on, and reflects the trust they place in us.”
Thomas Tschersich, CEO Deutsche Telekom Security GmbH and CSO Deutsche Telekom AG”Our joint offering is currently unique in Europe at this level of quality. We meet the compliance requirements of NIS2, DORA, and KRITIS with respect to data sovereignty — without asking our customers to compromise on the effectiveness of their cyber defence.”
A customer-led approach to sovereigntyThis solution reflects direct engagement with regulated organisations and public authorities across Europe — designed around the specific, verifiable controls they require, not a broad interpretation of sovereignty. It is built to evolve as sovereignty regulation across Europe develops.
Sovereign Cortex with T Security will initially be available to organisations in healthcare, financial services, the public sector and critical national infrastructure, with broader availability to follow. The initial release is planned for Q3 2026.
