Palo Alto Networks PA-800 Series next-generation firewall appliances, comprised of the PA-820 and PA-850, are designed to secure enterprise branch offices and midsized businesses.

The controlling element of the Palo Alto Networks PA-800 Series appliances is the PAN-OS security operating system, which natively classifies all traffic, including applications, threats, and content, and then ties that traffic to the user, regardless of location or device type. The application, content, and user – in other words, the business elements that run your business – are then used as the basis of your security policies, resulting in an improved security posture and a reduction in incident response time.
