You can prevent malicious variants of portable executables and PowerShell scripts from entering your network in real-time using machine learning (ML) based analytics on the firewall dataplane. By utilizing WildFire® Cloud analysis technology on your security platform, Advanced WildFire Inline ML dynamically detects malicious files of a specific type by evaluating various file details, including decoder fields and patterns, to formulate a high probability classification of a file. This protection extends to currently unknown as well as future variants of threats that match characteristics that Palo Alto Networks identified as malicious. Advanced WildFire inline ML complements your existing Antivirus profile protection configuration. Additionally, you can specify file hash exceptions to exclude any false-positives that you encounter, which enables you to create more granular rules in your profiles to support your specific security needs.
To enable Advanced WildFire Inline ML, you must have an active Advanced WildFire or WildFire subscription, create (or modify) an Antivirus (or WildFire and Antivirus for Prisma Access) security profile to configure and enable the service, and then attach the Antivirus profile to a security policy rule.
Advanced WildFire Inline ML is not currently supported on the VM-50 or VM50L virtual appliance.
