Palo Alto Networks® WildFire® now supports a new office file type
analysis classification engine for
WildFire Inline ML: OOXML (Open Office
XML). This 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. To take advantage of WildFire inline ML, you
must have an active WildFire subscription. If you do not have WildFire Inline ML
enabled on your firewall, refer to
WildFire Inline ML for more
