PA-3200 Series

Multi-gig-throughput firewalls with extreme versatility

Safely enable applications, users and content at high throughput speeds and SSL session capacity to secure encrypted traffic without slowing down your business, simplify deployments, and uncover and stop hidden threats without compromising privacy.

Datasheet Experience in 3D
Predictable performance, broad threat coverage
Classify all applications on all ports, all the time Identify any application, regardless of port, encryption (SSL or SSH) or evasive technique employed, and use the application – not the port – as the basis for all your safe enablement policy decisions: allow, deny, schedule, inspect and apply traffic-shaping. You can also categorize unidentified applications for policy control, threat forensics or custom App-ID™ technology development.
Enforce consistent policies for any user, at any location Deploy consistent policies to local and remote users running on Windows®, macOS®, Linux, Android® or Apple iOS platforms. You can choose from a multitude of ways to identify users, including GlobalProtect™ network security for endpoints, captive portal, AAA servers, Microsoft Active Directory®, Terminal Services, LDAP and Novell eDirectory™, as well as other sources you can add using XML API. Our SD-WAN subscription also lets you leverage the PA-3200 Series appliances as an SD-WAN hub to interconnect all your branch locations.
Prevent known and unknown threats Block a range of threats, including exploits, malware and spyware, across all ports, regardless of threat-evasion tactics employed. Gain full visibility into the details of all TLS encrypted connections and stop threats hidden within encrypted traffic, including traffic that uses TLS1.3 and HTTP/2 protocols. These appliances limit the unauthorized transfer of files and sensitive data to safely enable web and application access. They also identify unknown malware, analyze it based on malicious behaviors, and then automatically create and deliver protection.
