Hello all, 

I'm looking into the possibility of decrypting and inspecting encrypted traffic to and from the Internet for viruses, 
malware etc.... Is anyone doing this? We have Palo Alto firewalls and they support decryption, inspection, 
re-encryption. I'm concerned about privacy issues, could it impact compliance in any way, user acceptance. 
I appreciate any feed back. 

Thanks in advance for your time;
