In order to give VARs a better position to attack security in the data center and for remote workers, while also adding dozens of new features to its operating system to thwart threats in the network, Palo Alto Networks is launching a trio of new products.

The PA-5000 series is firewall designed for the data center featuring hot swappable fans, power supplies and SSD drives; dedicated high availability and management interfaces; and come in a 2U standard rack mount form factor.
