Does the Bot Protection use a Palo Alto cloud for bot analysis or only the local WAAS container is used and the role of the Javascript fingerprint?

Hello to All,

My question is simple Does Prisma Cloud WAAS bot protection use a Palo Alto cloud for bot analysis or only the local WAAS container is used? Probably the installed WAAS from time to time downloads bot signatures but what I am asking if the Cloud WAAS bot protection uses the javascript injection options to redirect user requests to a Cloud service for a more advanced checks than what a single virtual machine/container/appliance can do?

Also is the Javascript fingerprint used by the bot protection to detect when bot requests are comming from a single Javascript fingerprint even if the source ip are different?
