In the Firewall Configuration and Management (EDU-210) training, students will learn everything about how to configure the Next-Generation FireWall. This is all good if things are working, but what if they aren’t? This is what the Firewall Troubleshooting (EDU-330) course is all about — to give network security engineers the tools and techniques they need to effectively troubleshoot any issues related to the Firewall or even to provide proof that the problem is not related to the FireWall.

The Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access SASE Security: Design and Operation (EDU-318) course is an instructor-led training that describes Prisma Access Secure Access Service Edge (SASE). This course is intended for anyone who wants to learn how to secure remote networks and mobile users You will learn how to design, implement and operate the Prisma Access solution to better protect mobile users and your IT infrastructure in remote networks using a SASE implementation.

The Cortex XDR course teaches students how the Cortex XDR agent protects against exploits and malware-driven attacks. In hands-on lab exercises, students will explore and configure the Cortex XDR management platform and install Cortex XDR agent as well as relevant  components; create security policies and profiles to protect endpoints against multi-stage, fileless attacks built using malware and exploits; respond to attacks using response actions; understand behavioral threat analysis, log stitching, agent-provided enhanced endpoint data, and causality analysis; investigate and triage attacks using the incident management page of Cortex XDR and analyze alerts using the Causality and Timeline analysis views; use API to insert alerts; create BIOC rules; and search a lead in raw data sets in Cortex Data Lake using Cortex XDR Query Builder.

This is a specialised course for the Panorama centralized management solution. It not only teaches the features and functionalities of Panorama but also provides guidance on how to design a distributed firewall This training is a specialised course for the Panorama management solution to centrally manage FireWalls at scale. It not only teaches the features and functionalities of Panorama but also provides guidance on how to design a distributed firewall network that is managed from a central location.

Firewall: Improving Security Posture and Hardening PAN-OS (EDU-214) - The main task of a firewall is to protect the network from threats. Legacy firewalls however have failed to do so for many years, which is why firewall administrators are now facing the challenge to identify malware which already infected the network using their Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Firewall. In the EDU-210 (Configuration and Management) course students learn all the Palo Alto Networks product specifics like how to configure the Next-Generation Firewall. However, it will not prepare them for the daily management task to identify advanced threats. Nowadays, with the change in the Application and Threat landscape, administrators also need to know how modern malware is working to control and protect the enterprise network effectively. Therefore the "Firewall: Improving Security Posture and Hardening PAN-OS" (EDU-214) course is tailored for firewall administrators and operators who will manage the Next-Generation Firewall on a daily basis. It will teach them strategies in defence against advanced persistent threats and how to manage them using security policies, profiles and even custom signatures as well as Wildfire.

This training is the most important course as it covers all the fundamentals to understand the Next-Generation FireWall from the ground up. Even experienced firewall engineers take a lot out of this course as it includes, besides the architecture and management essentials, topics like Application Identification, Content ID (IPS, Anti-Virus/-Spyware, URL Filtering, File Blocking), SSL Decryption and User Identification which are all features usually not supported by legacy firewalls. In addition to the official content, we also teach security best practices that will enable students to fully leverage the Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Firewall’s potential as we not only explain the theory but how to use every feature in real life.
