Explanation

Prevention Posture Assessment (PPA) - The PPA is a set of questionnaires that help uncover security risk prevention gaps across all areas of network and security architecture. The PPA not only helps to identify all security risks, it also provides detailed suggestions on how to prevent the risks and close the gaps. The assessment, guided by an experienced Palo Alto Networks sales engineer, helps determine the areas of greatest risk where you should focus prevention activities. You can run the PPA on firewalls and on Panorama. https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/best-practices/8-1/data-center-best-practices/data-center-best- practice-security-policy/use-palo-alto-networks-assessment-and-review-tools
