At the same time, our team has also been focused on transforming Traps into a cloud-delivered advanced endpoint protection service.<\/p>\n<p>Today, we are excited to announce Traps 5.0, the most significant release for Traps to date.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a look at what\u2019s included in the Traps 5.0 release.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Traps Management Service<br \/>\n<\/span>The multi-region, cloud-based Traps management service saves organizations from having to invest in building out their own global security infrastructures and ties into Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Security Platform for additional integration and value. The service is simple to deploy and requires no server licenses, databases or other infrastructure to get started, enabling organizations to protect hundreds to millions of endpoints without incurring additional operating costs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Palo Alto Networks Logging Service Integration<br \/>\n<\/span>Integration into the Palo Alto Networks Logging Service allows more effective event management, threat hunting and incidence response, combining endpoint, network and cloud context.<\/p>\n<p>The Traps management service and agents forward all logs to our Logging Service, which is viewable in the Traps management service itself. Logging Service becomes a central repository for the collection and storage of events and incident data captured by Traps, regardless of location.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Reimagined User Interface<\/span><br \/>\nYou asked; we listened! Traps 5.0 brings a new user interface specifically designed to be more intuitive and minimize the operational challenges that are often associated with endpoint security management. This new interface delivers out-of-the-box protections that streamline the process of protecting new endpoints which come online, and key workflows that focus on policy and event management.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the many capabilities delivered by the new interface include simplified workflows for creating and executing policies that follow the order of operations; sensitivity ranked alerts to enable quick and prioritized event triage; and dynamic grouping so, as new endpoints are added, policy associated with the appropriate policy group is immediately applied.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, WildFire reports are now viewable directly from security alerts within Traps. The WildFire reports contain critical event details including targeted users, application(s) that delivered the threats, URLs involved in the delivery of threats, and the behavior that was observed in WildFire dynamic analysis.<\/p>\n<p><div style=\"max-width:100%\" data-width=\"600\"><span class=\"ar-custom\" style=\"padding-bottom:38.83%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  class=\"aligncenter wp-image-68315 lozad\"  data-src=\"https:\/\/www.paloaltonetworks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/traps.png\" alt=\"traps\" width=\"600\" height=\"233\" \/><\/span><\/div><\/p>\n<p><div style=\"max-width:100%\" data-width=\"600\"><span class=\"ar-custom\" style=\"padding-bottom:33.83%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  class=\"aligncenter wp-image-68357 lozad\"  data-src=\"https:\/\/www.paloaltonetworks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/traps2.png\" alt=\"traps2\" width=\"600\" height=\"203\" \/><\/span><\/div><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Linux Support<br \/>\n<\/span>Linux rounds out the list of major OS platforms now supported by Traps, enabling customers to protect resource- and performance-sensitive cloud workloads against exploits with host-based security. With many of these Linux-based workloads moving to the cloud, the lightweight Traps agent gives you exploit protection with minimal impact on performance and system resources.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Proactive Scanning for Incident Response and Compliance<\/span><br \/>\nPrevious versions of Traps focused on refining the ability to block malware as it attempted to execute. Traps 5.0 introduces the ability to periodically scan endpoints for dormant malware. If a malicious file is identified, Traps can automatically quarantine the file, ensuring it does not detonate and potentially infect the endpoint and spread to other endpoints.<\/p>\n<p><div style=\"max-width:100%\" data-width=\"600\"><span class=\"ar-custom\" style=\"padding-bottom:31.5%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  class=\"aligncenter wp-image-68396 lozad\"  data-src=\"https:\/\/www.paloaltonetworks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/traps3.png\" alt=\"traps3\" width=\"600\" height=\"189\" \/><\/span><\/div><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">To learn more about Traps 5.0:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Register for our upcoming webinar with Cloud Harmonics:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/go.paloaltonetworks.com\/traps50\"><b>Best Practices for Effective Endpoint Security<\/b><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Download our Traps <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paloaltonetworks.com\/resources\/techbriefs\/traps-technology-overview\">technology overview<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>We\u2019ve also transformed our Traps product page to accompany Traps latest transformation. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paloaltonetworks.com\/products\/secure-the-endpoint\/traps\">Check it out!<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Read the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paloaltonetworks.com\/company\/press\/2018\/palo-alto-networks-announces-advancements-to-its-traps-advanced-endpoint-protection-offering\">Traps 5.0 press release<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Traps 5.0 is here with new enhancements!
