Palo Alto Networks WildFire

What Palo Alto Networks WildFire is

Palo Alto Networks WildFire is a paid web service for examining URLs, files, and network traffic. It can analyze URLs, inspect network traffic, and extract indicators of compromise (IOCs). API access is available for connecting the service with other software. File analysis has a listed limit of 100.0 MB, which defines the largest file size covered by that capability. WildFire uses a paid model, with pricing available on request, and no free plan is listed. The service is offered through a web platform, so browser-based access is the stated deployment option. Its combination of URL analysis, traffic inspection, IOC extraction, and API access covers several forms of security-related analysis in one service. Organizations can request pricing and assess whether the 100.0 MB file boundary fits their analysis requirements.
