Palo Alto Networks® next-generation firewalls detect known and unknown threats, including in encrypted traffic, using intelligence generated across many thousands of customer deployments. That means they reduce risks and prevent a broad range of attacks. For example, they enable users to access data and applications based on business requirements as well as stop credential theft and an attacker’s ability to use stolen credentials.

Next Generation Firewalls
Cloud Security
On-Premises Protection
The primary benefits of Next Generation Firewalls (NGFWs) are visibility and control of traffic entering the firewall ports. In legacy firewalls, ports were opened and closed to allow or disallow traffic without consideration beyond basic characteristics. NGFW provides deeper insight into the traffic attempting to access the network. With NGFW, administrators have the ability to allow or limit access based on specific applications and content, rather than accepting or rejecting any traffic based on port number.
