IoT Security Solution Overview.png

Palo Alto Networks unveils our new IoT Security Solution that can help keep your network secure as you implement safer cybersecurity measures across your entire platform. Read the IoT overview and find answers on LIVEcommunity.

 

 

IoT Security Solution Overview

As technology advances, so do cyberattacks. And the latest targets that seem to be the most unprotected are IoT devices—everything from security cameras to smart appliances. Palo Alto Networks has been able to keep up with the changing times while helping to secure our digital way of life more by protecting all of the IoT devices on your networks.

 

What is the IoT Security Solution?

  • IoT Security subscription is sold as an attached subscription to the firewall  
  • New IoT subscriptions provide IoT device visibility, risk management, and security anomaly detection
  • Subscriptions are on a per firewall basis
  • Requires PAN-OS 8.1.x or later
  • Cortex Data Lake is required to use IoT Security Solution (Log Forwarding to CDL)

 

Again, the IoT Security subscription is supported on PAN-OS 8.1+. Additionally, PAN-OS 10.0 provides automated enforcement using new Device-ID capability.

Prevent Known Threats

  • Threat prevention happens on the firewall, IoT app creates alerts based on policies
  • Threat Prevention blocks known IoT malware
  • URL Filtering provides safe web browsing access for IoT devices
  • DNS security blocks attacks on IoT that use DNS
  • WildFire detects and prevents unknown threats
