Cortex XDR communicates with all current Cortex XDR agent releases. To ensure maximum protection of your endpoints, Palo Alto Networks recommends that you always deploy the latest maintenance version for each agent release.
Critical Environment (CE) versions must be enabled in the Cortex XDR console before use. CE versions are designed for sensitive and highly regulated environments. These versions receive full content update coverage and contain the same feature set as the standard line it is based on. Please note, that some bug fixes, introducing higher stability risk, may not be incorporated into the maintenance releases of these lines. Support is provided for CE versions for 24 months, while support for standard versions is provided for 9 months.
See Cortex XDR Agent Releases for details of the current agent versions. EOL versions may be shown in these tables for information purposes only.
