The configuration for Palo Alto Networks firewalls requires specifying many details, such as protocols and services. It is not the most complicated, but it is time-consuming. Additionally, updating the operating system of the firewall must be done manually.
If Palo Alto Networks introduces endpoint DLP, it will significantly improve. Palo Alto already has its own Cortex platform. Integrating DLP functionality within the Cortex agent or even providing it as a separate agent and solution would be beneficial. Currently, Palo Alto has all the necessary mechanisms for DLP. It would be advantageous if they integrate these mechanisms into a single, lightweight agent. Many existing solutions in the market have heavy agents, which can deter organizations from implementing them. However, if Palo Alto offers a streamlined agent, it will make a comprehensive DLP solution more attractive and feasible for users.
For the moment, my customers say that the DLP of Palo Alto is a solution that relies on a third-party agency because DLP is something on which we get the platforms or the platforms to be used in general. DLP is so well integrated into an environment. I would like the tool to have more support than the other products in the market.

You need to have an external solution to backup everything. For example, you need to have Syslog installed on your server as well so that you can back it up to another place. There is no in-built solution for backup such as the cloud, where we can backup with a license that we can obtain when we re-buy the device.
