    Pourquoi et quand exécuter cette tâche

    The Security Operations Palo Alto Networks- Get AutoFocus Session Info Enrichment flow is executed when the Source IP field in a security incident is modified and the record is updated. The flow fetches the IP address and submits a query request to AutoFocus. If AutoFocus has previously identified sessions originating from the IP address, a JSON-formatted report is returned.
