Firewall Platforms

Firewall Platforms Palo Alto Networks offers a full line of purpose-built hardware platforms designed for enterprise remote offices to high-speed datacenters. The platform architecture is based on a single-pass software engine and uses function-specific processing for networking, security, threat prevention, and management to deliver predictable performance.

Virtual Platform

The same firewall functionality that is delivered in the hardware platforms is also available in the VM-Series virtual firewall, allowing you to secure your virtualized and cloud-based computing environments using the same policies applied to your perimeter or remote office firewalls.

Central Management

Panorama provides you with the ability to manage your distributed network of our firewalls from a centralized location. View of all your firewall traffic; manage all aspects of device configuration; push global policies; and generate reports on traffic patterns or security incidents - all from one central location. Panorama is available as either a dedicated management appliance or as a virtual machine.

Wildfire

Modern cyberattacks and APTs rely on stealth, persistence, and the skilled avoidance of traditional security throughout the lifecycle of the attack. Palo Alto Networks offers an end-to-end approach to these threats that leverages the unique visibility of our next-generation firewall, combined with a cloud-based malware analysis environment in which new and unknown malware can run and conclusively be identified.

Link Balancer

GlobalProtect provides a comprehensive security solution for mobile devices built upon the technologies of the next-generation network security platform and tailored to address mobile requirements. It delivers unprecedented levels of integration to deliver a unique solution that combines technology, global intelligence and policy enforcement over mobile apps and threats.

URL Filtering

The perfect complement to the policy-based application control provided by App-ID is our on-box URL filtering database, which gives you total control over related web activity. By addressing your lack of visibility and control from both an application and web perspective, App-ID and URL Filtering together protect you from a full spectrum of legal, regulatory, productivity, and resource utilization risks.

Threat Prevention

Our next-generation firewall removes the methods that threats use to hide from security through completely analyzing all traffic, on all ports, regardless of evasion, tunneling or circumvention techniques. Then, we leverage multiple threat prevention disciplines, including IPS, anti-malware, URL filtering, DNS monitoring and sinkholing, and file and content blocking, to control known threats.

Enterprise Perimeter

Your network is full of applications you cannot identify nor control with your port-based firewall. Applications that can evade your firewall by hopping ports, using SSL, or non-standard ports.

The final component of our solution is giving you the ability to securely enable applications without degrading your firewall's performance.
