Palo Alto Networks NG Firewalls are primarily used for perimeter security, typically deployed in pairs at most locations. Smaller sales offices often have just one, while larger facilities prioritize security with more firewalls due to their broader operational scope. These firewalls are also highly valuable in mixed environments where standardized security features are essential.

The primary use case for Palo Alto is to address traffic-related issues and manage configurations pushed from Panorama to Palo Alto Firewalls. Additionally, it handles GPU-related challenges, global protect, and IP internal problems.

Both FortiGate and Cisco firewalls process network traffic sequentially, meaning each packet passes through security engines, e.g., security profiles and URL filtering, one by one, which can be time-consuming. In contrast, Palo Alto Networks NG Firewalls utilize single-pass parallel processing. When a packet arrives on an interface, the firewall creates multiple copies and sends them to all relevant security engines simultaneously. This parallel approach significantly reduces processing time and increases overall efficiency.

I have used it in a couple of different ways. One way was to use it as a perimeter device and to act like a traditional firewall for controlling the traffic in and out of the network and doing intrusion detection. It was more of a filtering-type device for remote access and VPNs. 

At another job, we used it as a site-to-site VPN. We scanned customer applications and code over a site-to-site VPN. These were the two main use cases that I have done over the last eight years with Palo Alto.

We partner with vendors primarily to foster better understanding and relationships. Our core business is system integration, where we cater to diverse customer requirements. A customer might approach us with a specific need, and we deliver. A product like Palo Alto's XDR or EDR endpoint protection is popular due to its features, but ultimately, the choice depends on individual customer requirements, including extra services or integrations. We currently have around six customers using Palo Alto.

Aside from the usual content filtering and application filtering, the primary driving force for Palo Alto Networks NG Firewalls has been the SD-WAN. Additionally, ADR has also been a significant factor. All our clients also use Palo Alto as their firewall solution.

I primarily help users migrate from traditional firewalls to Palo Alto NG Firewalls. This involves troubleshooting, assisting with application control and backup configuration, and teaching users how to optimize the firewall for their needs. Additionally, I guide users through the process of redesigning their firewalls and migrating their servers, which often includes helping them understand and manage the vast number of applications they have. Sometimes, the firewall cannot identify specific applications, requiring customization to ensure accurate recognition and security. Currently, I am working on a management query language, which involves collaborating with other teams to assess the necessity of specific applications and connections between the firewall and various assets. This ensures optimal security and network efficiency.

On certain levels, it protects our information. Luckily, I had switched to Palo Alto as our VPN solution for our users. We finished that in December of 2019, just in time for COVID to hit. We had a system that was able to support 650 to 700 users remoting into our campus through the VPN. This was a huge use case for us, as it was not intended to be the solution for COVID, but it turned out to be the solution for COVID. So, it was a great use case. Obviously, we want to protect our servers, virtual servers in the cloud, and on-prem. 

We have the eighth fastest supercomputer in the world. Unfortunately, we don't get to protect that because it has so much data going through it, i.e., petabytes a day. There isn't a firewall that can keep up with it. We just created a science DMZ for that kind of stuff as well as large data movers since we do weather data for the world. We research the ocean, sky, and solar weather. We have 104 universities who work with us around the world. Therefore, we need to have data available for all of them. We need to be protected as much as we can.

We started with Palo Alto 5060, then the 3060 came in, which was the next form. We have now switched to an HA system and have four firewalls as our base: a pair of 5220s and a pair of 5250s. We have been running the different OSs from PAN-OS 8.0, 8.1, 9.0, 9.1, and then 10.1. We are about to move to 10.2. We are in the process of doing that over the next week. We like to stay on the cutting edge because they are always adding more features and security.

We have it deployed in a number of different ways. We have our four main firewalls, which have two high availability pairs. One is set primarily for users and outward-facing functions. Therefore, our DMZ servers, staff, and guest networks are on one pair of firewalls. Back behind the scenes, labs and our HR department are on a separate set of firewalls. We call them: untrust and trust. Then, we have another set of firewalls, both in our Wyoming supercomputing center and in our Boulder main campus, which runs a specific program that has a DOD contract that requires more security, so they have their own set of firewalls. We also have firewalls in Azure Cloud for our tests and production environments. I am in the process of purchasing another VM firewall to put on the AWS Cloud. The last set that we have is at our Mauna Loa Solar Observatory, where we have an HA pair of just 800s because we only have a one gig radio link down the side of the volcano to the University of Hawaii.

We have between 1,200 and 1400 staff at any given time. Essentially all of them use the solution one way or another, either to access systems or through the VPN. We also have remote users who aren't employees but instead collaborators, and they can be anywhere in the world and remote into our systems. We then have people who are doing PhD programs at universities around the world who need to get into our systems to download data sets as part of their PhD or Master's program. Thus, the solution is not limited to our employees.

In most cases, our use cases were for migration and conversions. People were coming off of dated Cisco platforms and other types of firewall technologies that might not have met next-generation standards, like App-ID. Then, Palo Alto Unit 42 had to go out there and investigate with threat hunters, etc, which was not that well-known or used. Then, Palo Alto sort of showed everybody that world back in 2007 or 2008.

Mostly, I was dealing with people migrating off of their platforms onto Palo Alto. Unfortunately, in most cases, they wound up just converting them into service-based firewalls, like what they were already using, because they weren't ready to accept the requirements behind actually creating an effective App-ID policy yet for their company.

It wasn't well adopted at first. Even though everybody wanted it, people were putting it in and not really fully deploying it. Once I started working for Palo Alto, we had a whole lot more control over getting people to actually utilize the technology, like it was meant to be used. Mostly, it was going in as a service-based firewall with some App-ID. However, people weren't really taking advantage of the SSL decryption and other things necessary to truly utilize the firewall effectively.

I have an active customer who has 600 users using Palo Alto. I have another active customer with 300 users using Palo Alto.

On-premises, we used Cisco but replaced our core firewall world with Palo Alto because we wanted more visibility. Plus, we were looking for features such as IPS for PCI compliance. We wanted next-generation capability, but we had the ASA traditional firewall with Cisco, which doesn't do much, so we replaced it with Palo Alto. 

In the cloud, we use Palo Alto for the zero trust implementation. Initially, we tried to work with the Azure firewall, but we found a lot of limitations in terms of visibility. It couldn't provide us with the same visibility we wanted for Layer 4 and above.

The solution is deployed both on cloud and on-premises. The cloud provider is Azure.

We have about 6,500 endpoints in my organization and five administrators.

Some of my customers have Palo Alto firewalls, and the use cases include security policies, VPN connections, remote access, side-to-side VPN, and some user ID functionality. To solve these problems, I usually use the web UI monitor, system logs, end capture, CLI, etc. 

We don't have large-scale implementations in Poland as you'd find in Western Europe, but last year I did a big Palo Alto project with 20 Next-Generation firewalls and it was a success. We deployed eighteen PA 800 CVS firewalls for branch offices and a PA 52 series and NPA 5200 series at the data center. It was a high-availability model. The project was a migration from previously used Palo Alto firewalls, including the PA 500, 3000 series, PA 800 series, and PA 32 series. About 95 percent of our firewalls are on-premises, but some customers in Poland want to move to cloud solutions like Prisma Cloud.

In addition, all of the internal traffic from LAN users to services that are on the DMZ zone traverse the Palo Alto Firewall.

We are basically using a double protection layer in which we take care of all our DMV, VPN, tunnels, and internal network. We are basically using it for application based configuration  controlling our traffic on applications with layers four to seven. We are customers of Palo Alto and I'm an information security specialist.

We mainly use it for perimeter protection between the internet and the local network. We are using it for application control. We exploit the applications with some policies about how the network traffic is going to be from the local LAN to the external network and vice versa. We are protecting our network from outsiders and stopping them from getting into the network.

Normally, we use our firewall at the perimeter level. We are using Palo Alto Networks NG Firewalls as a firewall as well as using a few of their functionalities like the Vulnerability Protection, its IPS module. Additionally, we have remote VPN's on those firewalls, like GlobalProtect. So we are using all the features which are provided by Palo Alto.

Our primary use case is for the perimeter connection of our clients in the network. Our client brings their services to their clients, and they have the option to connect to a webpage. With Palo Alto Networks NG Firewalls they can safely provide a username and password to their clients.

It is mainly on-premise, because the majority of the clients at this point want that kind of option. But many of them are already asking for the cloud option, like Prisma, for example.

I deploy this solution for our clients. Firewalls can be used when you want to achieve SD-WAN connectivity. In a client's VPN or site-to-site VPN, it can be used to secure networks locally. If you have an extender or server room, you can secure your IT infrastructure for your servers. The solution can be installed on edge to protect your internal network. If you have services running on AWS or Google Cloud, or Alibaba Cloud, it can be deployed there. Some clients have a hybrid kind of infrastructure. I'm a service delivery engineer and network security lead and we are customers of Palo Alto.

We use this solution for Zero Trust Data Center Segmentation with layer 2 Palo Alto firewalls. Segmentation has allowed us to put servers into Zones based off VLAN tags applied at the Nutanix level and can change "personalities" with the change of a VLAN tag. Palo Alto calls the "Layer 2 rewrite". By default, all traffic runs through a pair of 5000 series PAs and nothing is trusted. All North and South, East and West traffic is untrusted. No traffic is passed unless it matched a rule in the firewalls. There is a lot of upfront work to get this solution to work but once implemented adds/moves/changes are easy.

We use the firewall for securing the data center. We have designed it to be a two-stage firewall. We have a perimeter firewall which is not Palo Alto, and then the Palo Alto firewall which is acting as a data center firewall. We are securing our internal network, so we have created different security zones. And we assign each zone a particular task.

Palo Alto has a line of products for different customers. If you do the sizing it from the beginning, considering that you are a growing company, it is fine.

You need to plan for the future, which means that you have to pay in advance through investment. With Palo Alto NG Firewalls, the cost will be higher.

I used Palo Alto firewalls for plenty of projects and have many use cases.

When working with App-ID, it is important to understand that each App-ID signature may have dependencies that are required to fully control an application. For example, with Facebook applications, the App‑ID Facebook‑base is required to access the Facebook website and to control other Facebook applications. For example, to configure the firewall to control Facebook email, you would have to allow the App-IDs Facebook-base and Facebook-mail.
