IoT Security

The IoT Security solution works with next-generation firewalls to dynamically discover and maintain a real-time inventory of the IoT devices on your network. Through AI and machine-learning algorithms, the IoT Security solution achieves a high level of accuracy, even classifying IoT device types encountered for the first time. And because it’s dynamic, your IoT device inventory is always up to date. IoT Security also provides the automatic generation of policy recommendations to control IoT device traffic, as well as the automatic creation of IoT device attributes for use in firewall policies. You need an IoT Security subscription to access this solution.

Two Ways to Manage IoT Security


IoT Security is moving into Strata Cloud Manager, Palo Alto Networks’ AI-powered, unified solution for network security management and operations. As we make this transition, the current IoT Security portal will be decommissioned in the next 3 to 6 months. In the meantime, existing tenants can continue to access the current IoT Security portal. If you onboard to IoT Security after June 2025, you can only manage IoT Security in Strata Cloud Manager.

Review the docs to validate feature support based on the management interface you’re using; each topic covers feature parity and workflows across IoT Security in Strata Cloud Manager and the IoT Security portal.
