Overview

PA-3200 Series Palo Alto Networks PA-3200 Series ML-Powered NGFWs-comprising the PA-3260, PA-3250, and PA-3220-target high-speed internet gateway deployments. PA-3200 Series appliances secure all traffic, including encrypted traffic, using dedicated processing and memory for networking, security, threat prevention, and management.The controlling element of the PA-3200 Series is PAN-OS, the same software that runs all Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs). PAN-OS natively classifies all traffic, inclusive of applica- tions, threats, and content, and then ties that traffic to the user regardless of location or device type. The application, content, and user-in other words, the elements that run your business-then serve as the basis of your security policies, resulting in improved security posture and reduced incident response time.Key Security and Connectivity Features | ML-Powered Next-Generation Firewall Embeds machine learning (ML) in the core of the firewall to provide inline signatureless attack prevention for file-based attacks while identifying and immediately stopping never-before-seen phishing attempts. Leverages cloud-based ML processes to push zero-delay signatures and instructions back to the NGFW. Uses behavioral analysis to detect Internet of Things (IoT) devices and make policy recommendations; cloud-delivered and natively integrated service on the NGFW. Automates policy recommendations that save time and reduce the chance of human error. Identifies and Categorizes All Applications, on All Ports, All the Time, with Full Layer 7 Inspection Identifies the applications traversing your network irrespective of port, protocol, evasive techniques, or encryption (TLS/SSL). Automatically discovers and controls new applications to keep pace with the SaaS explosion with SaaS Security subscription. Uses the application, not the port, as the basis for all your safe enablement policy decisions: allow, deny, schedule, inspect, and apply traffic-shaping. Offers the ability to create custom App-ID tags for proprietary applications or request App-ID development for new applications from Palo Alto Networks. Identifies all payload data within the application (e.g., files and data patterns) to block malicious files and thwart data exfiltration attempts. Creates standard and customized application usage reports, including software-as-a-service (SaaS) reports that provide insight into all sanctioned and unsanctioned SaaS traffic on your network. Enables safe migration of legacy Layer 4 rule sets to App-ID-based rules with built-in Policy Optimizer, giving you a rule set that is more secure and easier to manage.
