Modular chassis platform for hyperscale data center security

The PA-5450 is a modular, chassis-based platform that scales performance through the addition of Data Processing Cards (DPCs) and Networking Cards (NCs), all managed as a single system through a dedicated Management Processing Card (MPC). With up to 200 Gbps of firewall throughput and 189 Gbps of threat prevention capacity, it addresses hyperscale data center, internet edge, and large campus segmentation environments where performance requirements grow over time.

Precision AI-powered security

Inline deep learning and ML-based analysis detect and prevent zero-day threats, evasive malware, and command-and-control traffic in real time.

Predictable performance

Single-pass architecture delivers consistent throughput with all security services enabled, avoiding the performance degradation common in multi-pass designs.

5G-native security

Built-in 5G identifier-based visibility and enforcement capabilities protect mobile network infrastructure and service provider environments.

Key capabilities

Full Layer 7 inspection

Identifies applications regardless of port, protocol, or encryption, using the application as the basis for all security policy decisions.

Cloud-delivered security

Advanced Threat Prevention, WildFire, URL Filtering, DNS Security, IoT Security, SaaS Security, and AI Access Security as integrated services.

Native web proxy

Consolidate firewall and proxy into a single platform, supporting explicit proxy through PAC files and transparent proxy with Kerberos and SAML.

Centralized management

Manage all firewalls from Panorama or Strata Cloud Manager with AI-powered policy analysis and predictive analytics.
