IT and network security teams seeking a tool to unifiy advanced traffic classification, decryption, identity management and post-quantum protection

About PAN-OS

PAN-OS is Palo Alto Networks’ ML-powered next-generation firewall operating system that delivers core network security capabilities in a single, high-performance platform. It features App-ID, a patented traffic classification engine that automatically discovers and controls new and evasive applications, and Content-ID, which scans all network traffic in a single pass for comprehensive threat protection without sacrificing throughput. The Cloud Identity Engine aggregates and synchronizes user identities across multiple identity providers, enabling consistent, point-and-click zero-trust authentication and authorization. Device-ID maintains policy enforcement for devices regardless of IP changes or location, providing full context for security, decryption, QoS, and authentication policies. The OS employs post-quantum cryptographic algorithms and Quantum-resistant VPNs to safeguard against future decryption threats.
