Efficient real-time data management with outstanding speed and fault tolerance
My primary use case involves working with real-time data from thermostats and smart AC devices. These devices, such as Google Nest, control the environment setup through mobile apps. We use Amazon One Core for managing these smart devices Customers have not reported any issues related to speed…
Muhammad Ahsan Riaz - PeerSpot reviewer
Responsive system enhances network management but integration needs refinement
I find Palo Alto Networks IoT Security to be highly responsive, and its separate management and data planes are a major advantage. As an insurance company in the financial sector, we must meet strict regulatory requirements, and Palo Alto has proven to be an excellent solution. Its management is straightforward, the dashboards and reporting are comprehensive, and most importantly, it functions exactly as described in the documentation. For example, when we needed to block YouTube on our network, Palo Alto successfully blocked access while our Cisco firewall failed to block access on iPhones. This highlights the inconsistency we've experienced with different firewalls, whereas Palo Alto has consistently performed as expected.

"Single-pass traffic processing enables very high throughput and low latency."
"It is simple to use. We just need to enable features and then configure IoT policies."
"I like the threat information, and we can share the logging data with Cortex Data Lake."
"I would recommend Palo Alto Networks IoT Security to any organization with automation plants or standard enterprise IT environments."

Cons

"There are some areas for improvement, such as tech support."
"Essentially, this solution focuses on data analysis and cannot perform any physical actions."
"The reporting for this solution could be improved. The logs we receive are only saved for one week. We would like to have the database timeframe increased to a month or two for historical reporting as well as increased storage capabilities to support this data and reporting."
"It would be beneficial if Palo Alto IoT Security could integrate with Let's Encrypt for free SSL certificates."
"There can be more automation in terms of security and detection. It is already good."
"While not overly complex, its usability could be enhanced, making it a more intuitive experience for everyone."
"More application signatures are required."
"It would be beneficial to have a more centralized and user-friendly platform that could consolidate all the necessary information, which proved challenging during the initial POC phase."
"Palo Alto Networks IoT Security's reporting capabilities are less comprehensive and robust than those provided by Cisco."
