Decryption Best Practices
Shine a light on the darkness of encrypted traffic so
you can reveal what’s really coming into and leaving your network
and inspect that traffic for threats.
You can’t protect your network against threats you can’t
see and inspect. Gartner noted that in 2020, about 70 percent of
new malware campaigns used various forms of encryption. Google’s
Transparency Report shows
that no matter how you analyze Google web traffic, in most cases, up
to 95 percent of it is encrypted.
Decrypt that traffic to protect your network
against hidden threats.
This document is a streamlined checklist of pre-deployment, deployment,
and post-deployment best practices that you can follow to implement
decryption. Each section includes links to detailed information
in the PAN-OS Admin Guide, including how to configure Decryption
policy rules and profiles.
