ML-powered security across every network segment
PA-Series platforms use inline deep learning to stop threats in real time, identify IoT devices automatically, and push zero-delay signatures across the entire deployment.
Inline deep learning
Analyze traffic in real time to stop zero-day attacks and previously unseen phishing attempts without relying on signature updates.
Zero-delay signatures
Every connected NGFW receives updated threat intelligence within seconds of analysis, ensuring consistent protection across the network.
IoT device visibility
Profile any connected device to reveal type, vendor, model, and firmware using cloud-scale behavioral analysis.
Single-pass architecture for consistent performance
A single-pass approach to packet processing inspects traffic once for all threat types, delivering predictable throughput regardless of which security services are enabled.
- Single-pass processing: Inspect traffic once for all threat types
- Parallel processing: Purpose-built hardware accelerates performance
- Consistent security: Same PAN-OS software across all form factors
ML-Powered Branch Security
Small Footprint. Massive Protection.
Don't let your branch office be the weak link. Our ML-Powered Next-Gen Firewalls bring data-center-grade security to your desktop. Featuring fanless designs for quiet operation and built-in 5G for instant connectivity, these units are perfect for retail, small offices, and remote sites.
Secure your branch with Precision AI™ and built-in 5G.
- Silent & Durable: The PA-400 series features a fanless design with no moving parts—perfect for placing right on a desk.
- Zero Touch Provisioning: Unbox, plug in, and secure your site in minutes without sending an IT tech on-site.
- Built-in 5G: Models like the PA-415-5G and PA-455-5G come with integrated 5G cellular modems, giving you instant failover internet if your main line goes down.
- Power Your Devices (PoE): The all-new PA-500 Series includes PoE+ ports (up to 330W budget), allowing you to power your Wi-Fi access points and IP cameras directly from the firewall.

Ruggedized OT & IoT Security
Tough Enough for the Field. Smart Enough for the Cloud.
Secure your Operational Technology (OT) and IoT devices in the harshest environments on earth. Whether it's a utility substation or a factory floor, our Ruggedized Series is built to withstand extreme temperatures, vibration, and dust while delivering the same ML-Powered security as our enterprise units.
Military-grade protection for harsh environments.
- Certified Tough: Meets IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 standards for vibration, temperature, and electromagnetic interference.
- Extreme Temperatures: Operates safely from -40°C to 70°C, making it perfect for outdoor cabinets or non-climate-controlled warehouses.
- Water Resistant: The PA-455R-5G is IP65 rated, meaning it can withstand water jets and dust without an extra enclosure.
- DIN-Rail Ready: Mounts easily in standard industrial control cabinets alongside your PLCs and switches.
