New NetSec Platform Features on Strata Cloud Manager (January 2026)
See all the new features made available for Strata Cloud Manager in January
2026.
These new features follow the Strata Cloud Manager release model of continuous feature deployment; as they're ready, we make them
available to ensure the latest support for all products and subscriptions across the
NetSec platform. There's no Strata Cloud Manager upgrade or management version
requirement associated with these features; however, check if they have version or
license dependencies associated with other parts of the NetSec platform (like a
cloud-delivered security service subscription, or a Prisma Access version, for
example).
Monitor NGFW Devices with the NetSec Health Dashboard

Managing geographically dispersed security infrastructure often makes it
difficult to quickly identify which Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs) require
immediate operational attention. To solve this visibility challenge, the NetSec Health dashboard in Strata Cloud
Manager provides a centralized, geographic visualization of your entire
deployment. This feature helps you quickly assess the health of your security
infrastructure by viewing the count of healthy, unhealthy, and non-monitored devices
along with associated incidents. The interactive map provides a visual
representation of your device locations, enabling you to identify geographical
patterns in health status. By providing detailed information about status, software
versions, and associated incidents in one interface, the dashboard enables you to
maintain an optimal security posture. This centralized view ensures all devices are
properly monitored and healthy, reducing the risk of operational blind spots in your
network.
Unified NGFW Device Status Monitoring in Strata Cloud Manager

Supported for:
|
Managing fragmented performance data across multiple platforms complicates
troubleshooting and slows response times for critical network incidents. To solve
this visibility gap, the NGFW status monitoring feature in Strata
Cloud Manager organizes critical device performance data in a clear, intuitive
interface. When you transition from Panorama to Strata Cloud Manager, you benefit
from a unified view of both NGFW and Prisma® Access infrastructure while maintaining
access to familiar metrics for operational monitoring.
Device details, categorized by resource and traffic metrics, provide
performance insights. Resource metrics indicate potential constraints, while traffic
metrics offer comprehensive network visibility with interface statistics, tunnel
metrics, throughput, latency, and packet drops. The network topology view displays
connectivity to management systems, high-availability clusters, and log collectors.
Additionally, session metrics display throughput, session counts, connection rates,
and global session table utilization.
This improved organization of metrics makes reactive troubleshooting more
efficient by helping you distinguish between device health issues and network
behavior problems. When incidents occur, the interface links alerts directly to
specific metrics with visual indicators on time series charts to correlate issues
across multiple data points. You can quickly identify devices experiencing telemetry
delays, certificate expiration issues, or critical incidents requiring immediate
attention to maintain a robust security posture.
