Next Generation Firewalls from Palo Alto Networks are perimeter protection solutions in line with security requirements for industrial automation, tested and approved for usage with Siemens products.
Palo Alto Networks’ Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFW) are built to meet the specific needs of IT and OT leaders in industrial and critical infrastructure sectors such as manufacturing, transportation, and energy. As these environments increasingly converge, organizations face the challenge of securing complex hybrid systems that include both IT assets and operational technology. Our NGFW solution addresses this by enforcing Zero Trust principles across all network layers while supporting industry standards like ISA and IEC 62443. The platform provides deep visibility into network traffic, user behavior, and application flows, enabling granular control and automated threat prevention – even in segmented OT environments. Customers benefit from reduced cyber risk, improved transparency, and a simplified path to compliance with regulations. This future-ready, AI-powered security foundation enables secure digital transformation at scale.
