Firewall traffic analysis (FTA) is a network security operation that grants visibility into the data packets that travel through your network’s firewalls. Cybersecurity professionals conduct firewall traffic analysis as part of wider network traffic analysis (NTA) workflows. The traffic monitoring data they gain provides deep visibility into how attacks can penetrate your network and what kind of damage threat actors can do once they succeed.

Firewall monitoring is an important part of maintaining strict network security. Every firewall device has an important role to play protecting the network, and unexpected flaws or downtime can put the entire network at risk. Firewall monitoring solutions provide much-needed visibility into the status and behavior of your network firewall setup. They make the security of your IT infrastructure observable, enabling you to efficiently deploy resources towards managing and securing traffic flows.

The A10 Networks threat research team has investigated the HTTP/2 rapid reset vulnerability ( CVE-2023-44487), which has been identified in recent days and has advised customers on the best ways to mitigate it in their network.

The landscape of cyberthreats is continuously evolving, and to keep pace organizations employ robust network security strategies. This involves creating, executing, and maintaining a set of guidelines, or network security policies, on how the organization’s network should be protected from external threats. This process is termed network security policy management (NSPM) and it’s instrumental in maintaining the integrity of the network.

Okta, a provider of identity and authentication management services, reported that threat actors were able to access private customer data by obtaining credentials to its customer support management system. According to Okta’s Chief Security Officer, David Bradbury, the threat actor had the capability to view files uploaded by specific Okta customers in recent support cases.

In sports, the most successful teams master the art of strategic combinations. The same is true within the cybersecurity arena. In today’s expanding and complex threat landscape, trying to beat cyber opponents with a starting lineup of disparate point solutions is a losing strategy. How much better would your cyber defenses be with correlated threat intelligence across each of your key security solutions?

Social engineering attacks have a very long history, though the Internet has made it easier to launch these attacks en masse, according to Sean McNee at DomainTools. McNee points to an advance-fee scam from 1924, in which a crook sent a letter pretending to be trapped in a Spanish debtors prison. The sender requested that the recipient send a check for $36,000 to pay off his debt. After the sender is freed, he promises to pay the recipient back, with an extra $12,000 for the trouble.
