Using FireFlow you can manage all inbound firewall rules to protect the network against incoming traffic, such as disallowed connections, malware, and denial-of-service (DoS) attacks and outbound firewall rules to protect against outgoing traffic, originating inside a network. How can I manage my firewall's inbound & outbound rules? FireFlow enables firewall security policy management through automated changes to firewall policies. FireFlow zero-touch change management integrates strategy, planning and design, implementing proactive risk analysis, validation and auditing to prevent errors and save time. How can I manage my firewall security policy? Firewall change requests are requests for a firewall configuration change which result in a change to the network security infrastructure. Firewall change requests must be monitored to prevent unintentional errors that violate compliance standards or increase vulnerabilities to the network. What are firewall change requests? Firewall policy rules determine what traffic your firewall allows and what is blocked. Firewall rules examine the control information in individual packets, and either block or allow them according to the criteria that you define. Firewall rules control how the firewalls protect your network from malicious programs and unauthorized access. What are firewall policy rules? When making changes to firewall rules, be aware of any potential security risks. Firewall rules should always be documented, with the creation and expiration date, the name of the person who added the rule and clarification of the rule’s purpose and what applications, services, devices, users and data it affects.

success stories "AlgoSec now does the heavy lifting for us. It allows the engineers to focus more on providing greater levels of security than on process and change, so we’re able to provide a much more secure infrastructure for BT" Background A leading world-wide provider of communications services and solutions, BT serves customers in more than 170 countries. Its principal activities include the provision of networked IT services globally; local, national and international telecommunications services for use at home, at work and on the move; broadband, TV and internet products and services; and converged fixed/mobile products and services. Challenge BT’s internal network is a complex, highly segmented environment that has evolved over the last two decades throughout its worldwide locations. BT’s infrastructure relies on a large number of third-party domains and business-to-business connections with over 1,000 policy enforcement points, some of which date back a number of years.“The challenge facing BT is around the size of the estate, the complexity and our ability to demonstrate at audit that the rules within the policy are still appropriate, still valid, and still authorized,” says Phil Packman, General Manager of Security Gateway Operations for BT. “Equally, we’re challenged to ensure that rules don’t make it into the rulebase unless they’re approved and authorized.” BT therefore realized that it needed automation and reporting to better control its massive rulebase, and provide an approved audit trail to both auditors and internal stakeholders. Solution BT set about to solve its security challenges by creating a set of criteria for evaluating off-the-shelf, automated security solutions. “The criteria were based on ‘total costof ownership,’ our roadmap, and probably most importantly, the willingness of the partner to work with us,” says Packman. AlgoSec uniquely met BT’s requirements.Another feature BT liked was AlgoSec’s ability to prove that policies are implemented as approved. According to Packman, this was a capability “which we’d not seen in other products, and which we couldn’t achieve with our in-house tools.”AlgoSec’s commitment to customer success and its money-back guarantee were also deciding factors in BT’s selection process. Results Immediately after deployment, AlgoSec enabled BT to reduce error rates, make improvements to their rulebase implementation process and ultimately give BT better control over its network security. Packman explains: “Most notably, we were able to track down rogue connectivity, or connectivity that we didn’t understand properly. It gave us an almost immediate view of certain high-risk situations.”In addition, by using AlgoSec’s compliance reports, Packman’s engineering team were able to instantly demonstrate that no rules could be added to the firewall policy without proper approval — saving countless hours.Simplifying the audit preparation process led to a surprise benefit for BT’s Security Gateway Operations Team, which performs rule implementation and authorization: “AlgoSec has allowed us to change the skills profile of the team because the tool does the heavy lifting for us. Now our engineers can focus more on providing greater levels of security than on process and change, so we’re able to provide a much more secure infrastructure for BT.”Packman also endorses AlgoSec’s customer service, stating that the relationship has been a very positive one. “This has really helped put our minds at rest. We believe we’ve done the right thing in terms of deploying AlgoSec.”Using AlgoSec continues to enable BT to manage the complexity of its network with confidence, as it pursues growing and competitive global markets for its IT, computing, and communications services. Packman summarizes: “We have met every objective we hoped to achieve with AlgoSec.” Schedule time with one of our experts

As the most widely adapted open-source container software, Kubernetes provides businesses with efficient processes to schedule, deploy,... Cloud Security Understanding and Preventing Kubernetes Attacks and Threats Ava Chawla 2 min read Ava Chawla Short bio about author here Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur. Vitae donec tincidunt elementum quam laoreet duis sit enim. Duis mattis velit sit leo diam. Tags Share this article 10/20/21 Published As the most widely adapted open-source container software, Kubernetes provides businesses with efficient processes to schedule, deploy, and scale containers across different machines. The bad news is that cybercriminals have figured out how to exploit the platform’s vulnerabilities , resulting in catastrophic network intrusions across many company infrastructures. A recent report revealed that 94% of respondents reported security incidents in Kubernetes environments. The question is, what is behind this surge of Kubernetes attacks, and how can they be prevented? How Kubernetes is Vulnerable As a container-based platform, a new set of vulnerabilities, permission issues, and specific images set the stage for the increase in attacks. The threats have included fileless malware in containers, leveraging misconfigured Docker API ports, and using container images for attacks. Misconfigured Docker API Ports Exploitation Scanning for misconfigured Docker API ports and using them for deploying images containing malware is a relatively new type of attack. The malware, designed to evade static scanning, has become a popular method to hijack compute cycles for fraudulent cryptomining. This cryptojacking activity steals CPU power to mine currencies such as Ethereum and Monero. By first identifying vulnerable front-end websites and other systems, attackers send a command through the application layer simply by manipulating a domain’s text field or through an exposed API in the website’s URL. The code then enters the container, where it is executed with commands sent to a Docker container’s shell. A wget command is executed to download the malware. To protect against this attack, enterprises must ensure their container files are not writable, establish CPU consumption limits, and enable alerts to detect interactive shell launches. DDoS Attacks With Open Docker Daemons Cybercriminals use misconfigured open Docker daemons to launch DDoS attacks using a botnet of containers. UDP flood and Slowloris were recently identified as two such types of container-based botnet attacks. A recent blog describes an anatomy of these Kubernetes attacks. The attackers first identified open Docker daemons using a scanning tool such as Shodan to scan the internet for IP addresses and find a list of hosts, open ports, and services. By uploading their own dedicated images to the Docker hub, they succeeded in deploying and remotely running the images on the host. Analyzing how the UDP flood attack was orchestrated required an inspection of the binary with IDA. This revealed the start_flood and start_tick threads. The source code for the attack was found on Github. This code revealed a try_gb parameter, with the range of 0 to 1,024, used to configure how much data to input to flood the target. However, it was discovered that attackers are able to modify this open-source code to create a self-compiled binary that floods the host with even greater amounts of UDP packets. In the case of the Slowloris attack, cybercriminals launched DDoS with the slowhttptest utility. The attackers were able to create a self-compiling binary that is unidentifiable in malware scans. Protection from these Kubernetes attacks requires vigilant assurance policies and prevention of images other than compliant ones to run in the system. Non-compliant images will then be blocked when intrusion attempts are made. Man in the Middle Attacks With LoadBalancer or ExternalIPs An attack affecting all versions of Kubernetes involves multi-tenant clusters. The most vulnerable clusters have tenants that are able to create and update services and pods. In this breach, the attacker can intercept traffic from other pods or nodes in the cluster by creating a ClusterIP service and setting the spec.externalIP’s field. Additionally, a user who is able to patch the status of a LoadBalancer service can grab traffic. The only way to mitigate this threat is to restrict access to vulnerable features. This can be done with the admission webhook container, externalip-webhook , which prevents services from using random external IPs. An alternative method is to lock external IPs with OPA Gatekeeper with this sample Constraint Templatecan. Siloscape Malware Security researcher, Daniel Prizmant, describes a newer malware attack that he calls Siloscape. Its primary goal is to escape the container that is mainly implemented in Windows server silo. The malware targets Kubernetes through Windows containers to open a backdoor into poorly configured clusters to run the malicious containers. While other malware attacks focus on cryptojacking, the Siloscape user’s motive is to go undetected and open a backdoor to the cluster for a variety of malicious activities. This is possible since Siloscape is virtually undetectable due to a lack of readable strings in the binary. This type of attack can prove catastrophic. It compromises an entire cluster running multiple cloud applications. Cybercriminals can access critical information including sign-ins, confidential files, and complete databases hosted inside the cluster. Additionally, organizations using Kubernetes clusters for testing and development can face catastrophic damage should these environments be breached. To prevent a Siloscape attack, it is crucial that administrators ensure their Kubernetes clusters are securely configured. This will prevent the malware from creating new deployments and force Siloscape to exit. Microsoft also recommends using only Hyper-V containers as a security boundary for anything relying on containerization. The Threat Matrix The MITRE ATT&CK database details additional tactics and techniques attackers are using to infiltrate Kubernetes environments to access sensitive information, mine cryptocurrency, perform DDoS attacks, and other unscrupulous activities. The more commonly used methods are as follows: 1. Kubernetes file compromise Because this file holds sensitive data such as cluster credentials, an attacker could easily gain initial access to the entire cluster. Only accept kubeconfig files from trusted sources. Others should be thoroughly inspected before they are deployed. 2. Using similar pod names Attackers create similar pod names and use random suffixes to hide them in the cluster. The pods then run malicious code and obtain access to many other resources. 3. Kubernetes Secrets intrusion Attackers exploit any misconfigurations in the cluster with the goal of accessing the API server and retrieving information from the Secrets objects. 4. Internal network access Attackers able to access a single pod that communicates with other pods or applications can move freely within the cluster to achieve their goals. 5. Using the writeable hostPath mount Attackers with permissions to create new containers can create one with a writeable hostPath volume. Kubernetes Attacks: Key Takeaways Kubernetes brings many advantages to organizations but also presents a variety of security risks, as documented above. However, by ensuring their environments are adequately protected through proper configuration and appropriately assigned permissions, the threat of Kubernetes attacks is greatly minimized. Should a container be compromised, properly assigned privileges can severely limit a cluster-wide compromise. Prevasio assists companies in the management of their cloud security through built-in vulnerability and anti-malware scans for containers.
