Palo Alto Next-Generation Firewall Online Training
This Palo Alto training course prepares learners to use advanced features on a Palo Alto next-generation firewall. Firewalls control traffic with an Access Control List, but next-gen firewalls control traffic based on the application and deep packet inspection. Palo Alto has a firewall that can dynamically learn about threats across the entire internet. The moment a threat is discovered on the internet, that information is communicated to your firewall.

What our learners say
CBT Nuggets is exactly what I needed.
This is the gold standard of video training. You always hear in grade school or college that the best teachers are the ones who are passionate in their field. The CBT Nuggets team are extremely passionate and get you motivated for the material.
When learning a new technology, people sometimes build a wall that complicates the learning process because of the unknown. I like tearing down that wall — and having people fall in love with that technology.
