Case Study: Vietnam Airlines achieves over 60% cost savings with Palo Alto Networks

Vietnam Airlines attains colossal cost savings of more than 60% with Palo Alto Networks solutions

Vietnam Airlines, the flag carrier of Vietnam founded in 1995, operates extensive domestic and international routes and sought to modernize its IT infrastructure. Its legacy MPLS network and unstable VPN—routed through a Singapore data center—caused performance bottlenecks, security exposure, and unsustainably high operational costs, prompting a network transformation to secure reliable, consistent access worldwide.

Vietnam Airlines deployed Palo Alto Networks’ ML‑Powered Next‑Generation Firewall, GlobalProtect, and Prisma Access to replace the legacy architecture. The solution delivered stable, secure connectivity with Zero Trust principles, unified policy management across global sites, and improved user experience—achieving more than 60% cost savings over three years while strengthening data protection and operational scalability.
