Without AIOps telemetry enabled in PAN-OS, firewall devices in
Device Security often display only basic information and
lack critical contextual details needed for comprehensive
network security management. Integrate Device Security with
PAN-OS® to enhance visibility into your
Palo Alto Networks firewall infrastructure when AIOps is not enabled on your
firewalls. The integration retrieves and displays essential firewall metadata.
You can configure the integration to connect directly to individual firewalls or
through Panorama® management server for centralized management of multiple firewalls.
The integration uses Cortex XSOAR® to establish API connections
with your PAN-OS devices and automatically retrieve device
information at scheduled intervals. When you deploy this integration,
Device Security categorizes your firewall devices as network security equipment.
This enhanced visibility helps you better understand your network topology,
assess security risks more accurately, and make informed decisions about your
firewall infrastructure.
The integration serves as an alternative data collection method for environments
that don't use AIOps telemetry for device profiling capabilities. You can schedule
recurring jobs, ensuring your firewall information remains current and accurate
within Device Security. This solution is particularly valuable when you need
complete asset inventory and contextual information for effective threat detection
and response in your Device Security environment.
