The firewall intercepts outbound SSL connections, generates a trusted certificate on the fly to present to the client, decrypts the SSL traffic to inspect it for threats, applies security policies, then re-encrypts the traffic before forwarding it to the destination. This makes the firewall an
"invisible" proxy between the client and server, enabling full inspection of encrypted traffic.

To create custom Prisma Access reports within SCM, you first configure a dashboard that aggregates the relevant logs and analytics. This allows you to define the data points you want to include.
Dashboards in SCM can be customized to include Prisma Access data sources, enabling you to create and generate reports that meet specific business and security requirements.
Once configured, you can export the dashboard as a custom report.
Use the dashboard's data visualization to create custom reports for Prisma Access, which can be exported as PDFs for distribution.
