To address the increasing prevalence of evasive Office Open XML (OOXML) files to
deliver zero-day threats, Palo Alto Networks WildFire® introduces a new OOXML
analysis classification engine for WildFire Inline ML. This powerful engine enables
you to configure your NGFW to detect and prevent malicious Office Open XML files
from entering your network in real-time by applying machine learning (ML) analytics.
WildFire Inline ML dynamically detects
malicious files of specific types by evaluating various file details to formulate a
high probability classification of a file. This protection extends to currently
unknown as well as future variants of threats which match characteristics that Palo
Alto Networks identifies as malicious.
