Why people use PAN-OS
PAN-OS for Automated Firewall Security Audits
With this Connector, you can just ask your agent to list all security rules and summarize the most permissive ones. You get a plain-English summary of your security posture in seconds, letting you focus on fixing the gaps instead of finding them.
What Vinkius changes
You get a conversational interface for your firewall operations without the manual navigation.
Use it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or another AI client you already have.
