Best Practices Dashboard

The best practices dashboard and reports measure your security posture against Palo Alto Networks’ best practice guidance.
Security best practices are a moving target, and maintaining compliance can be a significant logistical burden. Traditionally, security administrators must manually audit configurations against established frameworks like the Center for Internet Security’s Critical Security Controls (CSC). This manual process is time-consuming, prone to human error, and results in disjointed, disconnected steps when sharing remediation reports with internal stakeholders. Without a streamlined, automated way to track adherence, identify gaps, and share remediation plans, your organization risks falling behind on its security posture.
The Best Practices dashboard solves this challenge by offering a powerful, automated solution. It provides security teams with daily reports that map directly to industry frameworks like CSC, giving you a clear, centralized view of your compliance status and an actionable plan for improvement. This release introduces the following new features:
  • Ability to export BPA reports in .csv format for use in third-party applications such as Microsoft Excel
  • Ability to download CLI remediations in .txt format. CLI remediations are generated using TSF data you upload when generating an On-Demand BPA report. (PAN-OS 9.1 and above TSFs)
  • Ability to view historical trend charts for BPA checks
