Explanation

Palo Alto Networks WildFire releases dynamic antivirus signature updates every 5 minutes. This is a major advantage over traditional antivirus solutions, which typically release updates daily or hourly. When WildFire analyzes a new malicious file in its cloud sandbox and determines it is a threat, it generates a new signature and pushes it out globally within approximately 5 minutes, dramatically reducing the window of exposure for all WildFire subscribers.
