Explanation

Cloud NGFW is a fully managed, cloud-native service, and content updates - including App-ID signatures, threat intelligence, URL category databases, and antivirus definitions - are applied automatically (C) by Palo Alto Networks without any administrator action. This is a core operational advantage of the cloud-delivered model: the customer is always protected with the latest content without scheduling maintenance windows or manual downloads. Contrast this with VM-Series or hardware NGFWs, where an administrator must retrieve updates through the management console (A), push them via Panorama (B), or download them from the Customer Support Portal (D) - none of which apply to Cloud NGFW.
