RE: Palo Alto integrates firewall with Active Directory

Big deal. A modest configuration feature that does what? Change firewall policy for an individual?! If any administrator is putzing around with this kind of minutia they deserve to be sacked. Perimeter policy should be immutable for everyone in order to ensure a secure, stable operation.

Palo Alto is making a huge stretch in a commodity-based market, trying to justify yet another redundant piece of equipment and have someone cough up 30 to 60 k for so-called peace-of-mind anyone could get with just a little bit of effort. BORING!
