The simplified security policy feature solves the challenge of managing complex, fragmented Security policy rules across multiple Palo Alto Networks products by integrating policy management within the Strata Cloud Manager interface. It unifies SaaS Security and internet access policy rules, providing centralized control and enhanced visibility. This integration reduces misconfigurations and accelerates security best practices adoption.

You can create policy rules using predefined templates or from scratch, with granular controls for user and device-based access, application actions, and data loss prevention. The feature implements dynamic policy enforcement, automatically adapting to changes in application risk levels, tags, and categories. This ensures your security posture remains up to date without manual intervention.

By consolidating policy management, you gain improved control over policy enforcement, minimize configuration errors, and streamline security implementation. This unified approach allows you to effectively secure your SaaS environment while maintaining consistency with existing internet access security policy rules.
