January 23, 2017 - Infotecs chose the realtime JavaScript detection and extraction capabilities of Rohde & Schwarz Cybersecurity’s DPI engine in Infotecs’ ViPNet xFirewall.
JavaScript, which is one of the main technologies for building web content, is a popular tool for cybercriminals who abuse the programming language for malicious attacks. Particularly, cross-site scripting (XSS) and cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks are typical JavaScript security threats that top the list of web application vulnerabilities provided by the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP).
R&S PACE 2 – the Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) engine by Rohde & Schwarz Cybersecurity – now enables Infotecs’ ViPNet xFirewall to inspect web content for potential malicious or injected code and to block Javascript threats in realtime. This way, R&S PACE 2 and the ViPNet xFirewall ensure network security.
Infotecs ViPNet xFirewall is a firewall that offers multi-level network security for business processes and protection against modern cyberattacks. In addition to application awareness (DPI mechanism), the ViPNet xFirewall includes inline configuration, stateful inspection, integrated antivirus and identity awareness.
