Palo Alto Firewalls

Next Generation Firewalls

Traditional AV is no longer effective at stopping today’s cyberattacks.

In fact, to prevent security breaches in your organisation, you must protect yourself not only from known and unknown threats but also from the failures of any traditional AV solutions deployed in your environment.

It’s time to replace your traditional antivirus solution with a real breach prevention tool.

Firewalls: Next Generation Security

Manage all your network security through Application Definitions and Content Control. With Palo Alto Networks next generation firewall you may never need to open a port again.

Palo Alto Networks have pioneered the New Generation Firewall technology.
Specifically the definition of a Next Generation firewall is not the traditional model of opening ports for each service (which could run into many rules, and effort to define), but in defining applications and Content Controls

Application rules

For instance in an incoming Skype for Business Service you can define The Skype for business Application rules and the Firewall will automatically inspect and open the ports required by Skype. As the service is modified the Firewall will open the ports as necessary. This removes the tedious redefining of ports/IP Rules.

Content rules

Rules can also be set Geographically, or by User. By using a sophisticated, agentless Content inspection engine the Firewall can limit outgoing and incoming traffic by packet content.

If you want to block Facebook chat for a specific user or AD group, except between certain hours. You can do that. It really is that granular and dynamic.
