Introduction to XQL: Building Your First Widget
Widgets transform XQL query results into interactive visualizations, aiding SOC analysts in identifying trends and anomalies. This article demonstrates using widgets to graph failed GlobalProtect logins, helping detect brute-force attacks and misconfigurations, and providing proactive assistance to users.
Operationalizing Threat Intelligence with Cortex: A Maturity Model for SOCs
Transforming raw data into actionable intelligence is crucial for cybersecurity. This article explores the stages of operationalizing threat intelligence, from basic ingestion to fully automated, proactive security operations, using Cortex TIM. Learn how to enhance your SOC's capabilities, reduce manual effort and shift from reactive to proactive defense.
Partner POV | Understanding and Leveraging the Role of Platformization in AI-First Cybersecurity
The convergence of cybersecurity and AI is reshaping defenses and attacks alike. Platformization, integrating multiple tools into a unified system, offers a solution to manage complexity and enhance security. Palo Alto Networks' Precision AI exemplifies this approach, providing robust, automated, and contextually aware cybersecurity solutions for modern threats.
Introduction to XQL: Writing Your First Correlation Rule
Correlation Rules in Cortex XDR and XSIAM are how we can use XQL queries to detect patterns, anomalies or sequences of activities that could indicate malicious behavior, even when each individual event might not appear suspicious on its own. Correlation Rules typically leverage data from multiple datasets, but for our example, we'll keep it simple to alert on failed login attempts to a NGFW, and build on the query later.
Introduction to XQL: Writing Your First Query
Learning a new programming or query language can be daunting, but if you've used the boolean options in a web search engine before, you can master XQL queries in no time. Like with web searches, we start with a hypothesis of our search, add filters to limit our results, and then validate the results that are returned against our hypothesis.
The Evolution of Cortex: Building the Future of Security Operations
Built on a decade of innovation and strategic acquisitions, Cortex unifies data from endpoints, networks, and cloud environments, empowering organizations to efficiently combat advanced cyber threats with minimal manual intervention.
Hands-On Lab Workshop: Palo Alto NGFW Foundations Version 10
Join us for the Virtual Lab Workshop! During this exclusive session, the host will introduce the Palo Alto NGFW Foundations Version 10 lab. This lab is designed designed to provide an environment to gain hands-on experience with the fundamental features of Palo Alto's NGFW solution. The environment that supports the lab is completely virtual, removing any hardware dependencies associated with physical infrastructure. This one-hour event is limited to 60 participants who will have the opportunity to engage in Q&A during the session. Attendees are encouraged to actively participate by launching the lab themselves alongside the host for a hands-on experience.
Palo Alto Ignite Conference Key Takeaways
A brief recap of my experience at Palo Alto's Ignite conference this year. Palo Alto demonstrated Cortex XSOAR, XDR, Xpanse and the new XSIAM.
