At Palo Alto Networks, our values of disruption, execution, collaboration, integrity, and inclusion guide everything we do in protecting our digital way of life. These values are also deeply held principles of the women and men who have proudly represented our Armed Services. Fundamental to who we are is the shared vision of a world where each and every day is safer and more secure than the one that came before it. So, it is by design that hiring Veterans is critical to our success.

"I was drawn to the opportunity to drive growth in strategic markets and bring exciting new technologies to customers.

"When I left the military to pursue a brand new career in cybersecurity, I did not know I was able to not only learn technical concepts, but also thrive if I kept learning and stayed curious. I now believe I can achieve anything I want if I am willing to learn and do the work that is necessary. This makes me a better asset to my customers and drives results as a Solutions Architect."

VETERAN STORIES

From our CEO, Nikesh Arora

As the son of a late Indian Air Force officer, I have a deep and personal regard for those who serve in the military. When I think about the increasingly complex cybersecurity challenges that governments and industries face, I know that Veterans – many of whom bring specialized training and expertise into their civilian careers – will be a critical resource for Palo Alto Networks. We remain committed to engaging, supporting, training, and hiring Veterans across the world.
