Explanation
GlobalProtect is the required VPN client for Prisma Access mobile users because Prisma Access is a Palo Alto Networks SASE solution, and GlobalProtect is Palo Alto's proprietary VPN/endpoint agent - it's purpose-built to integrate with the Palo Alto ecosystem, including Prisma Access cloud infrastructure, to deliver consistent security policy enforcement for remote users.
Why the distractors are wrong:
- WireGuard (A) is an open-source VPN protocol, not a client tied to any Palo Alto product.
- OpenVPN (B) is another open-source VPN solution with no native Prisma Access integration.
- AnyConnect (C) is Cisco's VPN client - a common trap answer since it's widely known in enterprise networking, but it belongs to a competing vendor.
Memory tip: Think "Palo Alto = GlobalProtect" - the word Global aligns with Prisma Access's goal of providing global, cloud-delivered security. If you see Prisma Access on an exam, GlobalProtect is almost always the associated client answer.
