GTT launches Defense Halo, an AI-native network defense platform on its backbone

GTT Communications unveiled GTT Defense Halo, an AI-native network defense platform running on its global Tier 1 backbone and AI factory connected to New York, Dallas, London and Prague. Each customer gets a dedicated single-tenant instance; analyzing 145,000 devices took 2 hours 15 minutes, and migrating 110 sites from Palo Alto to Fortinet took about 3.5 hours instead of 3.5 weeks.

• Platform has three components: Recon, Detect and Response
• Analysis of 145,000 Cisco, Check Point, Palo Alto, HP and Fortinet devices took 2h 15m
• Migration of 110 sites from Palo Alto to Fortinet cut from 3.5 weeks to 3.5 hours
