Event Overview
Join seasoned engineers for a 2.5-hour hands-on lab designed specifically for security architects, cloud engineers, and SecOps professionals. This immersive session will walk you through end-to-end deployment and operationalization of the Cloud NGFW for AWS – Palo Alto Networks’ machine learning-powered, next-generation firewall built natively for the AWS ecosystem.
You’ll get keyboard time and real-world context as you work directly within AWS to configure and manage PANW’s Cloud NGFW, integrating it with core AWS services like VPCs, Firewall Manager, CloudWatch, and Kinesis Firehose.
What You’ll Gain
- Architectural Clarity: Understand how to design secure AWS environments with Cloud NGFW embedded at strategic ingress/egress points.
- Operational Mastery: Learn how Cloud NGFW for AWS simplifies threat prevention and automates remediation within your cloud workloads.
- Live Use Cases: Practice deploying policies that enforce Zero Trust principles, detect lateral movement, and respond to evasive threats in real-time.
Who Should Attend
- Technical executives looking to operationalize policy-as-code and Zero Trust across multi-account AWS environments
- Engineers and Practitioners seeking tighter integration between network security and cloud-native workflows
- Network Architects responsible for securing hybrid and cloud-only topologies with scalable controls
Whether you’re responsible for designing, deploying, or defending workloads in the cloud, this technical lab will equip you with skills to strengthen your infrastructure using the Cloud NGFW for AWS platform.
