to your stack & domain
Agentic AI capability from Palo Alto Networks for cybersecurity operations, with autonomous reasoning and action across Cortex workflows.
How this operator works
every way of working, already decidedOwns the system, not the ticket
Takes end-to-end ownership of a service or surface. Design, delivery, on-call. And is measured on outcomes, not hours.
Embedded, async-first, instrumented
Works inside your repos, your CI and your rituals. Daily written standups, decisions logged. No status-meeting tax.
Runbooks, canaries, reversible deploys
Every change gated and reversible. Incidents get a timeline and a postmortem; nothing ships without a rollback.
Plugged into your Slack & rituals
Joins standups and retros, reports weekly against the goal. You get an operator, not a queue.
Brings a pre-wired stack or adopts yours
Infrastructure and observability as code by default. No bespoke setup tax to absorb.
Scoped, gated, reversible
Week-1 shadow, week-2 ownership, swap on request inside the trial window. No long-tail handover risk.
Overview
Cortex AgentiX is Palo Alto Networks' agentic AI capability for cybersecurity operations. It brings autonomous reasoning and action to Cortex workflows, so security work that previously needed manual analyst steps can be carried by agents under supervision.
Through Scrums.com, Cortex AgentiX is listed on the catalog and deployed by Scrums.com delivery teams. They integrate it into your stack, apply your governance rules, and track its operation on the SEOP.
What it does
Autonomous investigation
Agents reason over security data in Cortex workflows to move investigations forward without waiting on manual steps.
Agentic workflow actions
Beyond analysis, agents can take actions inside Cortex workflows, keeping response moving.
SecOps reasoning
The capability applies autonomous reasoning to security operations tasks, from enrichment to decision support.
Cortex platform integration
It runs as part of the Palo Alto Networks Cortex platform, alongside the rest of your Cortex deployment.
Deploying it with Scrums.com
- Scope. Scrums.com runs a fit assessment against your workflows and governance requirements, including which SecOps tasks agents may act on autonomously.
- Integrate. Scrums.com engineers wire it into your repos, pipelines and tools with guardrails, connecting it to your Cortex environment with approval gates where you require them.
- Operate. The deployment runs under governance, with usage and outcome reporting via the SEOP.
Commercial availability
Cortex AgentiX is sold by Palo Alto Networks as an enterprise SaaS capability of the Cortex platform. Procurement runs through Palo Alto Networks; Scrums.com supports the commercial process as part of a deployment.
FAQs
How is this different from classic SOAR automation?
SOAR executes fixed playbooks. AgentiX adds agentic reasoning: agents assess context and choose actions inside Cortex workflows rather than only following a static script.
What does deployment need?
A Palo Alto Networks Cortex deployment with AgentiX available, admin access, and a defined boundary for autonomous versus human-approved actions.
What controls apply to autonomous actions?
Actions run inside your Cortex tenant and its permission model. Scrums.com configures the autonomy boundary with you and the SEOP keeps a record of agent activity for review.
