The service combines AI-powered solutions such as Cortex XDR and Prisma Cloud with depth of incident response experience to help enterprises respond immediately and recover faster than other digital forensics and incident response (DFIR) services in the market.
Palo Alto Networks’ knowledge of security and deep understanding of advanced attacker behaviour enables Unit 42 to undertake a thorough investigation with rapid response. The company analyses data from thousands of customers globally, generating over 500 billion daily events. This dataset enables responders to contextualize threats and respond effectively.

According to the recent Unit 42 Cloud Threat report, more than 60% of organizations take over four days to resolve security issues, while threat actors typically exploit a misconfiguration or vulnerability within hours. Palo Alto Networks recently worked with a large enterprise customer after a zero-day vulnerability allowed an authentication bypass and remote code execution (RCE) exploit. The threat actor leveraged the vulnerability to drop web shells and launch a crypto miner onto the client’s unpatched CRM system hosted on a popular cloud service provider (CSP).
