Suricata IPS NFQueue with nDPI. Часть III

«Suricata IPS NFQueue with nDPI» — это значит, что программа suricata работает в режиме IPS с движком NFQueue и поддержкой nDPI. Традиционные файрволы могут блокировать нежелательный трафик по IP адресам и портам, но они не способны анализировать содержимое пакетов и обнаруживать сложные атаки, которые маскируются под легитимный трафик. Suricata сильно дополняет возможности классического файрвола — она позволяет блокировать данные на более высоком уровне — на уровне приложений.Данная информация предназначен Read more

It carries no solar panels, no rechargeable batteries. Just the slow, steady release of nuclear warmth, which diminishes by about 4 watts each year. After nearly five decades, that decline has become critical. During a routine... Read more
