I was honored when Tom asked me to write a foreword for his new book. I was excited to hear he was writing a new version of it because I would regularly refer to his previous version and go through it to help me out. With all the new features that have come out since the previous book, version 2 is as helpful as ever!
Tom had already built quite a reputation for himself while he was still working at Palo Alto Networks, helping out wherever he could, providing guidance and support as a TAC engineer and later as a well established member of the Palo Alto Networks LIVEcommunity. As an independent, Tom, aka Reaper, only built further upon that reputation and continued to assist Palo Alto Networks users where he could. Reaper, considered a legend by many in the community, is still one of the top contributors helping out others and I can only encourage everyone who wants to learn PAN to make full use of this book.
I mean, there are plenty of technical and smart people around, but not everyone is gifted like Tom at sharing or explaining the knowledge they possess in a fun and encompassing way. Tom has a real knack of conveying his wisdom and makes it easy to understand just by his way of writing. Noobs as well as veteran Palo Alto Networks users will find great tips and tricks, advice, and best practices to leverage.
This book will not only help you with specific configurations covering most of Palo Alto Networks features (GlobalProtect, High-Availability, SSL decryption, and much more!) but at the same time it will teach you how to adhere to security best practices and troubleshoot any challenges you might encounter with confidence.
Palo Alto Networks has a ton of features and it might be difficult to know where to begin your PAN journey. With Toms guidance you will get started in no time or get advice on how to improve your current security posture.
Stay secure!

Thanks to Kris for being a wonderful friend and helping me make this thing better than it was before. The following people also deserve special attention; space is limited, but they know what they did:
Aref Alsouqi, Rutger Truyers, Scott Rhodes, Graham Brown, Michel Nys, Hrishi Kamat, and Ulli Volk. My wife and son, you are my everything.
Special thanks to Georgia Daisy van der Post, you rock!
