What is XQL?

XQL (XDR Query Language) is a query language developed by Palo Alto Networks for use with their Cortex XDR (Extended Detection and Response) platform. It is designed for threat hunting, investigation, and security analysis across diverse data sources. XQL allows security analysts to search and correlate security data from endpoints, networks, and cloud environments to identify and respond to threats effectively. It is a powerful and flexible tool for security teams to gain insights into their security posture and improve their threat detection and response capabilities.
