Set up next-generation firewalls from Palo Alto Networks and get to grips with configuring and troubleshooting using the PAN-OS platform

Key Features

Understand how to optimally use PAN-OS features
Build firewall solutions to safeguard local, cloud, and mobile networks
Protect your infrastructure and users by implementing robust threat prevention solutions

Book Description

To safeguard against security threats, it is crucial to ensure that your organization is effectively secured across networks, mobile devices, and the cloud. Palo Alto Networks integrated platform makes it easy to manage network and cloud security along with endpoint protection and a wide range of security services. With this book, youll understand Palo Alto Networks and learn how to implement essential techniques, right from deploying firewalls through to advanced troubleshooting.

The book starts by showing you how to set up and configure the Palo Alto Networks firewall, helping you to understand the technology and appreciate the simple, yet powerful, PAN-OS platform. Once youve explored the web interface and command-line structure, youll be able to predict expected behavior and troubleshoot anomalies with confidence. Youll learn why and how to create strong security policies and discover how the firewall protects against encrypted threats. In addition to this, youll get to grips with identifying users and controlling access to your network with user IDs and even prioritize traffic using quality of service (QoS). The book will show you how to enable special modes on the firewall for shared environments and extend security capabilities to smaller locations.

By the end of this network security book, youll be well-versed with advanced troubleshooting techniques and best practices recommended by an experienced security engineer and Palo Alto Networks expert.
