FAQs

How is Ignite on Tour different from Ignite?

Cyber adversaries are more innovative and effective than ever. The same disruptive technologies that are fueling digital transformation in the enterprise, such as AI/ML, cloud computing, and IoT, have changed the game for cybersecurity. Yesterday’s approaches just can’t keep up.

That’s why we’ve reimagined Ignite, our flagship user conference, into Ignite on Tour, a global road show that brings the best of Ignite to you. At Ignite on Tour, we will share the latest innovations, insights and strategies for cybersecurity in the AI era.

Ignite on Tour brings cybersecurity practitioners and decision-makers together for one exciting day packed with inspiring thought leadership keynotes, hands-on workshops and technical breakouts, and networking opportunities.

Ignite on Tour is a global road show, happening in North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. To view our current tour schedule, please visit: https://register.paloaltonetworks.com/igniteontour.
