An Introduction to the Hillstone Networks Server Breach Detection Solution

Sophisticated, targeted cyberattacks, such as ransomware, have become the biggest threats to modern society, as well business. Attackers often exploit security vulnerabilities in traditional static, rule-based cyber defense technologies that are usually deployed at the network perimeter. Malware and viruses designed by these hackers breach into the intranet of the corporate networks and hibernate for certain periods of time, looking for and identifying high valued targets inside the corporate network (such as database servers), then try to gain access to these servers and ultimately steal valuable data and other information or demand ransom by disrupting normal business operations.

CloudEdge For Network Function Virtualization (NFV) Solutions

With the advancing technologies, business applications and operations naturally have become more dynamic in order to adapt. New applications or business operations are created almost every day. In addition to adding new applications, removing or modifying applications and operations happen at a similar speed. However, traditional hardware-based data centers and networks could not meet the requirements of these highly dynamic changes, as hardware infrastructure cannot be adjusted at the same speed as applications.

Hillstone T-Series Intelligent Next-Generation Firewall Whitepaper: Abnormal Behavior Analysis

This paper describes the Abnormal Behavior Analysis capability of the Hillstone Intelligent Next-Generation Firewall (iNGFW) product. This technology offers a cutting-edge method of detecting unknown threats by analyzing user and server traffic, tracking a myriad of traffic parameters, and correlating and comparing the gathered data to limit risk and reveal potential new threats. Over a period of system learning, each tracked parameter generates a baseline, as well as high and low thresholds. Subsequent behavior patterns violating these thresholds are deemed abnormal and the system generates a threat warning. The correlation of time, parameters exhibiting abnormal behavior, and system warnings enable you to recognize and prevent potential new threats in advance of them impacting your network operation or applications.
