Palo Alto Trial



You don't need to be a partner just find a local PAN VAR and contact them. There should be a list on the Palo Alto site. They would LOVE to get you setup with a trial and interested, just tell them you're evaluating it as a firewall solution for a possible upcoming refresh. Be the first to know. As a member you’ll get exclusive invites to events, Unit 42 threat alerts and cybersecurity tips delivered to your inbox.

Palo Alto Networks VM-Series Virtualised Firewall

The Palo Alto Networks VM-Series features three virtualised next-generation firewall models – the VM-100, VM-200, and VM-300. These platforms are supported on the VMware ESXi 4.1 and ESXi 5.0 platforms. 2, 4, or 8 CPU cores on your virtualised server platforms can be assigned for next-generation firewall processing.

With 4 CPU cores running, the VM-Series delivers up to 1 Gbps firewall throughput with App-ID enabled. To ensure that management is accessible to you during heavy traffic, the data and control plane are separated. In addition, our unique single-pass software architecture processes functions in a single pass to reduce latency.

The VM-Series runs PAN-OSTM, a security-specific operating system that:

  • Safely enables intra-virtual machine traffic
  • Protects you against all known and unknown threats
  • Integrates flexibly in the virtualised environment at layers 1, 2, or 3

Our PAN-OS next-generation firewall capabilities allow you to tie your security policies to virtual machine adds, moves and changes, and to create security policies that instantly sync with virtual workload creation.

Next-generation firewalls enforce network security policies based on applications, users, and content

The purpose of the first phase of the pilot clinical study of the BrainGate2 Neural Interface System is to obtain preliminary device safety information and to demonstrate the feasibility of people with tetraplegia using the System to control a computer cursor and other assistive devices with their thoughts.

Another goal of the study is to determine the participants’ ability to operate communication software, such as e-mail, simply by imagining the movement of their own hand. The study is invasive and requires surgery.

Individuals with limited or no ability to use both hands due to cervical spinal cord injury, brainstem stroke, muscular dystrophy, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) or other motor neuron diseases are being recruited into a clinical study at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) Case Western Reserve University, Providence VA Medical Center, and Stanford University Medical Center. Clinical trial participants must live within a three-hour drive of Boston, MA, Cleveland, OH, Palo Alto, CA or Providence, RI. Clinical trial sites at other locations may be opened in the future. The study requires a commitment of 13 months.
