Policy Management

The PAN-OS policy editor has been purposefully designed with a familiar look and feel to take full advantage of existing firewall knowledge and accelerate the implementation process. Using either Panorama or the device web interface, administrators can create a application usage control policies that are based on a wide-range of criteria:

  • User identity and/or groups via seamless integration with Active Directory.
  • Source and destination IP address, source and destination security zones, and time-based schedules.
  • Individual application or via a dynamic filter using category, subcategory, technology, risk and behavioral characteristic. 
  • Protocol and port number which enables enforcement of traditional protocol and port firewall policies.
  • Block file transfer capabilities within an application and/or block application transfers by file type.

"Like many large schools, we have significant IT resources to serve our faculty, staff, and students. Ensuring those resources are not overwhelmed by threats and risky applications is challenging, given the nature of university environments. The PA-4000 Series enables us to understand and control applications on our networks to achieve that goal."
