A Best Practice Assessment (BPA) heatmap visually represents the percentage of adoption for each security assessment area. It color-codes how well an organization has implemented Palo Alto Networks best practices across categories such as decryption, threat prevention, and WildFire. It is not limited to firewalls (ruling out B), it is not a questionnaire tool (ruling out D), and it does not require a sales engineer to interpret adoption percentages (ruling out A).
