EDL permissions ↗

EDL (External Dynamic List) enables security teams to:

• Add IP Addresses and Domains to Dynamic Lists - Create lists of malicious or suspicious IPs/domains
• Integrate with Palo Alto Networks Firewalls - EDL lists are automatically synced and enforceable on PANW firewalls.
• Block Malicious Traffic - Firewalls can use EDL to block traffic to/from listed entities
• Centralized Threat Response - Manage blocklists from a single location across your security infrastructure

Note

This permission is for analysts to use as a response action during case investigation. The Long Running HTTP Integrations configuration (under Configurations) is for administrators to set up and manage the EDL service infrastructure. For more information, see Forward Requests to Long-Running Integrations.
