AMDAMD Brings Access Control onto Palo Alto Networks
AMD, an information technology organization in the United States, uses Strata from Palo Alto Networks to support identity operations for IAM and helpdesk.
IAM and helpdesk at AMD review access control in Strata rather than in personal files.
“IAM and helpdesk needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.”
“Palo Alto Networks provides network, cloud, and security operations products used to protect enterprise environments and automate response.”

| Capability | Named workflow replaces ad hoc routing for access control |
| Capability | Identity operations stays visible to adjacent teams through Strata |
Story
Inside AMD, identity operations used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in information technology groups working out of the United States. IAM and helpdesk needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
AMD uses Strata from Palo Alto Networks as the working layer for access control. Palo Alto Networks provides network, cloud, and security operations products used to protect enterprise environments and automate response. The practical change is simple: identity operations has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What AMD gets from Palo Alto Networks is a durable place to run identity operations and a way for IAM and helpdesk to see the same access control at the same time.
