WildFire Overview
WildFire is a cloud-based malware analysis environment that provides granular and coordinated threat analysis for all traffic and attack vectors across thousands of applications, including web traffic, email protocols (i.e, SMTP, IMAP, and POP), and FTP, regardless of location in the organization, ports, or deception techniques, such as hiding behind encryption (SSL). WildFire automatically creates protection against new threats and delivers them to all subscribers in as few as 5 minutes.
WildFire is a sandbox analysis service that examines files for zero-day malware. A firewall administrator can submit copies of files transferred through the firewall to WidlFire for analysis. Typically, within 5 minutes WildFire will process the file and provide a malware verdict plus a detailed analysis report. This service is available to all firewall owners for free with a license available for advanced features.
WildFire is implemented in a Palo Alto Networks managed public cloud or a WF-500 appliance installed on a user's network. WildFire malware findings result in a new detection signature being created and added to the worldwide Antivirus Update for all firewalls within 24 to 48 hours. WildFire license holders can receive these new signatures in as few as 15 to 30 minutes.
