How to Stop Reconnaissance Attempts | Palo Alto Firewall Training
A look at the tools and configurations available to us in Palo Alto Networks Strata firewalls to help stop the first part of the Cyber Kill Chain sequence, Reconnaissance is normally done externally as an attacker starts to look for ways to compromise the target or simply to learn more about the platforms in use and if there are any potential open attack vectors.
Port Scanning, IP sweeps, even the humble ping can give an attacker a good idea or a starting point to launch an attack, often hidden behind VPN's or from hosting companies that don't check to closely what their customers are doing, fortunately we can block a lot of these attacks before they start, keeping the attackers in the dark for longer!
