The mandate

Leading the digital experience inside one of cybersecurity's most significant platform integrations.

Palo Alto Networks is the global, AI-powered cybersecurity leader — spanning network security, cloud security, and security operations. I lead the digital experience for integrating CyberArk into the Palo Alto Networks ecosystem, the centerpiece of a multi-billion-dollar M&A moment.

The work spans global navigation and information architecture, an AI-ready ecosystem built for LLM discovery and answer engines, the migration of CyberArk's digital properties, and platform-led storytelling across Network Security, SecOps, and Identity Security.

It applies the full arc of 16+ years and $27B+ in M&A — preserving digital equity, simplifying complex product and solution journeys, and making Identity Security a clear, discoverable pillar of the broader platform story.

The approach

Six connected workstreams, one platform story.

Each case study below is one move inside a larger transformation. These are the threads that tie them together.

M&A digital integration

Folding CyberArk's identity portfolio into Palo Alto Networks — preserving brand and search equity while launching Identity Security as a platform pillar.

Information architecture & navigation

Re-architecting global navigation and taxonomy so products, solutions, and buyer journeys resolve into one coherent, discoverable structure.

Platform storytelling

Aligning Strata, Prisma, Cortex, and Identity into a single platform narrative — moving the site from product catalog to platform-first story.

Content & experience systems

Reusable systems for video and events — turning hundreds of one-off pages into searchable, governed, conversion-ready templates.

Domain consolidation & SEO equity

A decision framework for unifying 10+ disconnected web properties under one architecture without sacrificing organic authority.

AI-ready & AEO discoverability

A structured, crawlable foundation built for LLM discovery and answer engines — so the platform shows up in the next layer of search.
