Expedition – The Glue Between IronSkillet and Best Practices Expedition was conceived to reduce the time and efforts a security admin needs to improve and optimize their Palo Alto Networks configurations. Following that effort, we have added, within Expedition, support not only to run a BPA analysis if not also be able to remediate some of the failed checks (all related to Device Config) and now integration with the project IronSkillet. https://github.com/PaloAltoNetworks/iron-skillet

ABOUT Expedition is the fourth evolution of the Palo Alto Networks Migration Tool. The purpose of this tool is to help reduce the time and efforts of migrating a configuration from a supported vendor to Palo Alto Networks. By using Expedition (Migration Tool), everyone can convert a configuration from Checkpoint, Cisco, or any other vendor to a PAN-OS and give you more time to improve the results. Expedition (Migration Tool) 3 added some functionalities to allow our customers to enforce security policies based on App-ID and User-ID as well.
