Palo Alto Networks PA-500 Series Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs) comprise the PA-505, PA-510, PA520, PA-540, PA-545-POE, PA-550, PA-555-POE, and PA-560 models. This series brings ML-powered NGFW capabilities to distributed enterprise branch offices, retail locations, and midsize businesses.
The controlling element of the PA-500 Series NGFWs is PAN-OS®, the same software that runs all Palo Alto Networks NGFWs. PAN-OS natively classifies all traffic, inclusive of applications, threats, and content, and then ties that traffic to the user regardless of location or device type. The application, content, and user-the elements that run your business-serve as the basis of your security policies, resulting in an improved security posture and reduced incident response time. PAN-OS embeds machine learning (ML) in the core of the firewall to provide inline signatureless attack prevention for filebased attacks while identifying and immediately stopping never-before-seen phishing attempts.
