ANALYZING SECURITY EVENTS ACCORDING TO THREAT REPUTATION

 * Updated 1 month ago
   
 * 0 comments

FollowNot yet followed by anyone


OVERVIEW

The Security research team in Cato Networks has developed analytical engines to
tag malicious IP addresses, URLs, and domain names with a bad reputation. This
reputation indicates that we discovered that the specific IP address, URL, or
domain initiated suspicious or malicious activity. For example, malware C&C,
network scanners, phishing activity, and so on.

The IPS engine in the Cato Cloud blocks network traffic that is tagged with a
bad reputation and generates a reputation-based security event with the threat
type Reputation.

The following screenshot shows an example of a security event with the
Reputation threat type from Event Discovery:




REASONS FOR BLOCKED TRAFFIC

When Cato's IPS engine identifies potentially malicious traffic and blocks it
based on the threat reputation, the threat name field explains the reason why
the traffic was blocked.

Values for the threat name field include, but are not limited to:

 * Domain reputation based signature - Phishing
 * Reputation IP based signature - Botnet
 * IP reputation based signature - Malicious IP
 * Domain reputation based signature - Malicious Domain
 * IP reputation based signature - Abuse
 * URL reputation based signature - Malicious URL


WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT THREAT TYPES?

Each Security Event generated within the Cato Management Application is
categorised by a field called threat type. This field displays a high-level
overview of the type of threat that Cato has protected you against,  and
provides you with an indication of any potential malicious activity.

The threat types which may be displayed in a Security Event include:

 * Spam
 * Brute Force
 * Scanner
 * Phishing
 * Policy Violation
 * Crypto Mining
 * Anonymizer
 * DoS
 * Network Scan
 * Vulnerability Scan
 * Information Disclosure
 * Privilege Escalation
 * Reputation
 * Remote Code Execution
 * PuP
 * Web Application Attack
 * Malware
 * Malicious Browser Extension


SAMPLE THREAT REPUTATION SECURITY EVENT WORKFLOW

 1. The Security research team identifies that a domain is potentially a source
    of malicious attacks.
 2. The domain is tagged with a bad reputation and the IPS engine is updated.
 3. An end-user tries to access the domain, and IPS blocks the connection and
    generates a Security event with the threat type Reputation.


WHAT'S THE SIZE OF CATO'S THREAT DATABASE?

The Threat Database at Cato Networks is constantly evolving in line with the
ever-changing threat landscape. We continuously improve the size and scope of
our threat detections to ensure maximum protection for our end customers. For
representative figures, as of July 8th 2021 we currently have, but are not
limited to:

 * 750+ million domains and 32+ billion URLs classified
 * 80+ site categories, including high-risk categories
 * 6 million dangerous IPs correlated with URLs
