New NetSec Platform Features on Strata Cloud Manager (August 2025)
See all the new features made available for Strata Cloud Manager in August
2025.
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).
Strata Cloud Manager: NGFW Alerts in August
|
August 29, 2025
Here are the NGFW alerts introduced
in August 2025:
|
Health alerts actively monitor the health and
performance of your platform in real time. This approach helps in identifying
issues, predicting potential problems, and implementing remediation actions to
ensure your devices function optimally. Here are some key aspects:
- Monitoring Metrics: Continuously monitor various metrics from the NGFWs, including CPU utilization, memory usage, disk space, network throughput, and other relevant performance indicators.
- Anomaly Detection: Generate alerts that dynamically adjust based on the metric's historical value and your usage trends.
- Predictive Analysis: Leverage historical data and patterns to predict when thresholds might be exceeded or specific events may occur. This helps forecast potential issues before they escalate.
Accelerate Insights and Enhance Security with Telemetry Autoenablement

Telemetry autoenablement for Palo Alto
Networks devices streamlines the activation and configuration of telemetry,
eliminating complex workflows and manual setup. This feature ensures that upon
device onboarding, telemetry is automatically enabled and configured to stream data
to the correct data residency region, determined by your location or existing
configurations.
Strata Cloud Manager or hub now manages telemetry settings, rather than
individual Panorama or firewall devices. These services store information for all
devices within a tenant service group (TSG), simplifying and automating telemetry
configuration. This approach removes operational hurdles, enabling full utilization
of telemetry's benefits while maintaining control over data sharing preferences.
Consistent telemetry data streaming provides enhanced security, faster
security responses, and access to advanced features through critical threat
insights. Telemetry autoenablement ensures your devices send valuable diagnostic and
usage information, significantly improving support case resolution times and
offering real-time insights into performance, usage, and potential issues.
You have the ability to manage your telemetry settings at the TSG
level, including the option to change the telemetry tier from Full to Diagnostic
through the hub interface or Strata Cloud Manager. This tiered approach ensures you
can choose the level of information shared while adhering to data privacy
requirements. Additionally, all telemetry configuration changes are logged for audit
purposes, assisting with compliance and security policy adherence.
Strata Cloud Manager Command Center: Fair Metric Classification for ADEM Operational Health View and Widgets
|
August 1, 2025
Supported for: Strata Cloud Manager
|
The Operational Health view and User Device Experience widgets
in the Strata Cloud Manager Command Center now display
Fair metrics alongside the existing Good and Poor
performance indicators, providing you with more granular visibility into user
session quality and network performance degradation levels. This enhanced
categorization helps you better identify and address performance issues that fall
between optimal and severely degraded states, enabling more precise troubleshooting
and policy optimization decisions.
