As we step into 2025, it's remarkable to reflect on how quickly the past year has passed. 2024 was a year of transformation and growth, filled with significant milestones that highlight LIVEcommunity's ongoing journey and success.

 

In 2024, LIVEcommunity achieved significant milestones, launching new features and content to enhance user engagement and knowledge sharing. We introduced a dedicated Community Updates section to keep members informed about the latest platform changes, as well as a Support FAQ to provide quick answers to common queries. Our Always Innovating in NetSec blog series and the Threat Vector podcast became key resources for staying ahead in the rapidly evolving cybersecurity landscape. Additionally, we unveiled several new product pages, hosted a successful presence at Ignite events, and continued to empower our Cyber Elite cohort, making 2024 a year of growth and innovation for the LIVEcommunity!

New Pages on LIVEcommunity

A primary objective within LIVEcommunity is to serve as the hub for the latest and most current resources for Palo Alto Networks technology. In pursuit of this goal, we introduced several new pages this year:

 

  • Advanced SD-WAN for NGFW: PAN-OS integrates Advanced SD-WAN for intelligent path selection, routing automation, and monitoring, supporting various topologies like Hub & Spoke and Hybrid SASE.
  • AI Runtime Security: AI Runtime Security protects AI ecosystems—applications, models, and data—by preventing evolving threats, data leakage, and attacks on models and apps.
  • AI Access Security: AI Access Security enables secure GenAI adoption by offering real-time visibility, access control, and data protection to prevent exposure of sensitive information.
  • Prisma Access Browser: Prisma Access Browser is the only enterprise browser integrated into SASE, providing seamless security on any device with real-time threat detection powered by Palo Alto Networks Precision AI.
  • Strata CoPilot: Strata Copilot, powered by Precision AI, is an AI assistant that helps security teams quickly identify and address threats using natural language, with resources available to optimize its effectiveness.
  • Web Proxy: Web Proxy feature in PAN-OS combines firewall and proxy functions on a single platform, enabling centralized management and offering resources like videos, discussions, and tips for users.

 

Our hope is that these pages assist you in adopting, maximizing the benefits, and gaining in-depth knowledge about your Palo Alto Networks products. You can find these pages listed under the Products section in the navigation bar.
