SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct 27, 2026--
Horizon3, the AI-native proactive security leader, today announced the availability of its NodeZero ® integration with Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR on the Cortex Marketplace. The integration brings NodeZero’s high and critical findings on security vulnerabilities and other weaknesses into Cortex XSOAR as actionable incidents, helping teams use exploitability evidence to prioritize remediation, orchestrate the work, and return to NodeZero to verify fixes.

Security teams have extensive vulnerability data and powerful automation to orchestrate remediation at scale. What they often lack is evidence showing which vulnerabilities and weaknesses attackers can actually exploit and whether remediation eliminated the underlying risk.
The NodeZero integration for Cortex XSOAR connects those capabilities, bringing pentest evidence into orchestrated remediation. NodeZero autonomously tests environments to identify security vulnerabilities and other weaknesses, map attack paths, and provide evidence of impact and remediation guidance. Cortex XSOAR ingests high and critical open findings identified by NodeZero as incidents. Existing automation and playbooks can then enrich, route, track, and orchestrate remediation. After a fix is implemented, teams can use NodeZero 1-Click Verify to retest eligible findings and determine whether they remain exploitable.
“Organizations have invested heavily in security tools and automation. The opportunity now is to prove those investments are producing better security outcomes,” said Snehal Antani, CEO and co-founder of Horizon3. “By bringing NodeZero’s exploitability evidence into Cortex XSOAR, teams can prioritize what to fix based on what testing revealed, automate remediation, and verify that the outcome changed. It gives leaders evidence that their defenses are working and their security investments are delivering measurable value.”
“Effective security orchestration starts with high-quality inputs,” said Daniele Di Mattia, VP, GTM Strategy & Operations at Palo Alto Networks. “NodeZero adds attacker-validated exploitability context to Cortex XSOAR, helping security teams focus automation and remediation on the weaknesses that matter most. Together, we’re helping customers turn better security context into faster, more informed action through the workflows they already use.”
How the Integration Works: From Proven Exploitability to Verified Remediation
The integration enables a continuous workflow across NodeZero and Cortex XSOAR:
As AI accelerates the speed at which attackers can discover and exploit weaknesses, defenders have less time to respond. Security teams need greater confidence that they are proactively fixing what matters and their remediation efforts are effective. By continuously identifying exploitable attack paths, driving remediation, and verifying that fixes worked, NodeZero and Cortex XSOAR help organizations build continuous resilience through a repeatable Hack, Fix, Verify, Repeat operating model.
The NodeZero integration for Cortex XSOAR is certified by Palo Alto Networks and available now on the Cortex Marketplace.

Horizon3 Announces NodeZero Integration With Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Susan Saint James, who co-starred with Rock Hudson in the 1970s TV crime series “McMillan & Wife” and later co-starred with Jane Curtin in the sitcom “Kate & Allie” in the 1980s, has died. She was 80.
People magazine, citing a representative for the actor, said Saint James died Monday. She had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
“She never met a stranger," her family said in a statement to People. "Every person she met became the most important person in the room at that moment, from a fellow board member to the clerk at the shoe store, who usually walked away knowing her entire life story."
Born Susan Jane Miller on Aug. 14, 1946, in Los Angeles, she was raised in the northern Illinois city of Rockford, where her father had transferred for work. She began modeling as a teenager in Paris.
At 20, she moved back to Los Angeles and landed a seven-year contract with Universal Studios. She made her television debut in the 1966 movie “Fame is the Name of the Game” with Tony Franciosa.
She got another break when it became a series called “The Name of the Game” in 1968, with rotating lead characters played by Franciosa, Gene Barry and Robert Stack. Saint James provided the show continuity in her role as Peggy Maxwell, a research assistant who worked for all three men. She won an Emmy Award for the part in 1969.
Before “The Name of the Game,” Saint James had a recurring role in the crime-caper series “It Takes a Thief” starring Robert Wagner. Her other early TV credits included “Ironside," “McCloud” and “Alias Smith and Jones.” In 1980, she guest-starred in an episode of “M(asterisk)A(asterisk)S(asterisk)H.”
Saint James, known for her unique, throaty voice, had a supporting role in the 1968 movie “Where Angels Go, Trouble Follows” starring Rosalind Russell and Stella Stevens.
She earned her biggest fame as Sally McMillan, the plucky wife of Hudson’s San Francisco police commissioner Stewart McMillan, in the hit series “McMillan & Wife” from 1971-76. She received three Emmy nominations for the role.
Saint James left the NBC show before its sixth and final season because of a contract dispute, with her character killed off in a plane crash. Saint James then turned to feature films.
She played opposite Peter Fonda in “Outlaw Blues” in 1977. She co-starred with George Hamilton in the 1979 vampire spoof “Love at First Bite” and joined Jessica Lange and Curtin in the 1980 comedy heist “How to Beat the High Cost of Living.” She co-starred in the 1981 romantic comedy “Carbon Copy,” in which Denzel Washington made his movie debut.
After middling success on the big screen, Saint James reunited with Curtin in the CBS sitcom “Kate & Allie,” which ran from 1984-89 and earned Saint James two Emmy nominations as the free-spirited Kate to Curtin’s straight-laced Allie.
While guest-hosting “Saturday Night Live” in 1981, Saint James met Dick Ebersol, the show’s then-executive producer and the future chairman of NBC Sports. They married barely six weeks after meeting and had three sons, Charlie, Willie and Teddy.
Teddy died at age 14 in a 2004 private plane crash that also killed the pilot and flight attendant; Ebersol and Charlie survived with serious injuries.
The family had spent Thanksgiving in Los Angeles and were due to make multiple stops on the return trip. The flight landed first in Colorado, where Saint James got off to go to the family’s second home. It crashed upon taking off again for Indiana in snowy weather.
Her family's statement mentions the loss: “Her defining act: weeks after losing her youngest son, Teddy, in the Nov. 28, 2004 plane crash, she delivered his eulogy as a note to each of her other children and her husband, giving them words to heal. Even in the deepest grief of her life, she put everyone else first.”
Saint James filed for divorce from Ebersol in 2002, but they reconciled later that year. “We had a second chance,” she told People magazine in 2002. “I’m amazingly happier, so that’s a good sign.”
In his 2022 memoir “From Saturday Night to Sunday Night,” Ebersol called Saint James “the greatest partner I’ve ever had by far.”
She retired when “Kate & Allie” ended, choosing to focus on raising her younger children in Litchfield, Connecticut, while Ebersol took the executive job at NBC Sports.
Saint James made occasional guest appearances after that, including as the mother of her real-life look-alike niece Christa Miller on “The Drew Carey Show,” as well as “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” and “Suits.” In 1999, she starred in a production of “The Miracle Worker” in Torrington, Connecticut.
In 1998, Saint James, her sister, Mercedes Dewey, and a friend founded Seedling and Pip, a baby gift basket business with a focus on books based in Litchfield, Connecticut.
She was a longtime supporter of Special Olympics, volunteering and serving on its board of directors.
Besides her husband, she is survived by daughter Sunshine and son Harmony from her second marriage to makeup artist Tom Lucas, with whom she remained friends; sons Charlie and Willie with Ebersol; and Miller, whose first TV role was on “Kate & Allie.” Saint James’ first marriage to Richard Neubert ended in divorce.
