    WildFire Submissions Logs

    The firewall forwards samples (files and emails links) to the WildFire cloud for analysis based on WildFire Analysis profiles settings (ObjectsSecurity ProfilesWildFire Analysis). The firewall generates WildFire Submissions log entries for each sample it forwards after WildFire completes static and dynamic analysis of the sample. WildFire Submissions log entries include the firewall Action for the sample (allow or block), the WildFire verdict for the submitted sample, and the severity level of the sample.
    The following table summarizes the WildFire verdicts:
    Verdict
    Description
    Benign
    Indicates that the entry received a WildFire analysis verdict of benign. Files categorized as benign are safe and do not exhibit malicious behavior.
    Grayware
    Indicates that the entry received a WildFire analysis verdict of grayware. Files categorized as grayware do not pose a direct security threat, but might display otherwise obtrusive behavior. Grayware can include, adware, spyware, and Browser Helper Objects (BHOs).
    Phishing
    Indicates that WildFire assigned a link an analysis verdict of phishing. A phishing verdict indicates that the site to which the link directs users displayed credential phishing activity.
    Malicious
    Indicates that the entry received a WildFire analysis verdict of malicious. Samples categorized as malicious are can pose a security threat. Malware can include viruses, C2 (command-and-control), worms, Trojans, Remote Access Tools (RATs), rootkits, and botnets. For samples that are identified as malware, the WildFire cloud generates and distributes a signature to prevent against future exposure.
    C2 samples are classified as C2 in the WildFire analysis report and other Palo Alto Networks products that rely on WildFire analysis data; however, that verdict is translated and categorized as malicious by the firewall.
