Atlanta, GA, October 5, 2026 — BlueAlly Technology Solutions today announced it has achieved Palo Alto Networks NextWave Diamond Innovator status. BlueAlly joins a select group of partners who have met the Diamond Innovator performance, capabilities, and business requirements of the Palo Alto Networks NextWave Partner Program.
BlueAlly’s dedicated cybersecurity practice incorporates the Palo Alto Networks platform, delivered through BlueAlly’s own engineering and professional services teams. They cover network security with the Next-Generation Firewall family, secure access service edge (SASE) and zero trust access through Prisma Access and Prisma SD-WAN, multi-cloud protection through Prisma Cloud, and detection and response backed by Unit 42 incident response and threat intelligence. With its recent acquisitions of Giga Networks, BlueAlly has added four advanced partner specializations to its portfolio: Cortex XDR, Cortex XSOAR, Cortex XSIAM, and Cortex Cloud.
As a Managed Security Services Partner (MSSP), BlueAlly runs cloud-delivered, natively integrated Palo Alto Networks technology, backed by global, AI-driven threat intelligence and automation that speeds client onboarding and frees analysts to focus on real threats instead of manual tasks. For commercial and mid-market clients running lean IT teams, BlueAlly pairs that depth of specialization with sizing, deployment, and lifecycle services, so organizations get enterprise-grade protection without having to staff and manage it entirely on their own.
“Earning Diamond Innovator status with Palo Alto Networks reflects the investment our team has made in deepening our cybersecurity expertise, not a single achievement to mark and move past,” said Dianne Callies, AVP of Vendor Alliances, BlueAlly. “Our clients need a partner who can keep pace with how fast threats are changing, and this recognition tells them we have the depth and the track record to do exactly that.”
“NextWave partners play a critical role throughout the customer lifecycle, from the initial qualifying stage to ultimately ensuring successful deployment and adoption of our technology,” said Michael Khoury, VP, Global Ecosystem Programs, at Palo Alto Networks. “As a NextWave Diamond Innovator, BlueAlly is a cybersecurity advisor our customers can trust.”
“Our customers need cyber experts that can help them achieve better security outcomes, protecting them from today’s sophisticated threats,” said Anar Desai, VP of Americas Channel Sales at Palo Alto Networks. “Our Diamond Innovator NextWave partners have deep Palo Alto Networks expertise to help solve complex security challenges with robust solutions and services. As a NextWave Diamond Innovator, BlueAlly is helping redefine what it means to be secure.”
