Palo Alto Networks President, Chairman and CEO Mark McLaughlin sat down with Mad Money's Jim Cramer yesterday in CNBC's new San Francisco studio to talk about cybersecurity trends. The discussion focused on cyber threat prevention as a winning strategy for today's enterprise organizations, and the rejection of the mindset that hackers will always win. Palo Alto Networks believes that enterprises should take a prevention-oriented approach, and Mark and Jim discussed how our enterprise security platform can help change the cost curve for companies by making it more expensive than ever for hackers to execute attacks. During the sit-down, the two also talked about information sharing and the discussion around cybersecurity in the boardroom. Watch the full interview below:
