Ngaf Feautures for SSH AND RDP

Hi All,

Good Day!


Feautures want to protect internal host from SSH and RDP Brute force attack which function of ngaf can meet his requirements?

1.APT Detection
2.RT Vulnerability Scanner
3.Web App Protection
4.IPS

HiHi,

I recommend configuring the IPS feature in NGAF to enhance security and protect your internal hosts from brute-force attacks on SSH and RDP services.

Hello,

Among all the options you mentioned, the best function of NGAF to protect internal hosts from SSH and RDP  brute force attack is IPS or Intrusion Prevention System. See explanation below:

- IPS monitors network traffic for malicious activities including brute force login attempts and can identify patterns of repeated failed login attempts on SSH and RDP ports.
- IPS functions beyond just identifying vulnerabilities unlike vulnerability scanners. it also actively block suspicious traffic which prevents hackers from gaining access to the internal hosts thru SSH or RDP brute force attempts

To protect your internal systems from brute force attacks on SSH and RDP, you need the Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) feature in NGAF. It spots these attacks in your network traffic and stops them. While other features like APT detection and web app protection are vital too, IPS focuses directly on stopping these kinds of attacks.

apply firewall and IPS system.

Intrusion Prevention System (IPS)

Hi, i suggest you to safeguard your internal systems from brute force attacks targeting SSH and RDP, with the Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) feature in NGAF is essential. It identifies these attacks within your network traffic and halts them. Although other features such as APT detection and web application protection are also crucial, the IPS is specifically designed to thwart these types of attacks.

The most relevant function in a Next-Generation Firewall (NGAF) would be the Intrusion Prevention System (IPS).

IPS is designed to monitor network traffic and identify potential threats, including brute-force attacks targeting SSH and RDP ports. It can analyze traffic patterns and block malicious activities based on predefined rules or signatures. By implementing an IPS, you can effectively shield your internal hosts from brute-force attacks.

It is suggested to implement an Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) in your NGAF solution. Please consider configuring your firewall to restrict access to these ports only for authorized sources and implementing strong password policies to further enhance security.

I sugest you to use IPS -  Intrusion Prevention System on NGAF, but i sugest that your servers or devices that have SSH and RDP port open to have some policies to prevent Brute force attack in case...
