One of the critical components of many companies’ IT infrastructure is the Netscaler Gateway, which acts as a gateway to the company’s internal resources. Its importance is undeniable, but so is the awareness of its vulnerability to attacks, especially during zero-day periods.
Zero-Day Problem and Netscaler Gateway Vulnerabilities
Netscaler Gateway, being visible on the Internet, is a natural target for cybercriminals. Zero-day periods, when new gaps are discovered but not yet patched, pose special risks. During this time, between the detection and remediation of the vulnerability, organizations are extremely vulnerable to attacks. Citrix, the provider of the Netscaler Gateway, regularly updates its software, but even a short response time can be enough for criminals to launch a successful attack.
How does Secfense Full Site Protection Strengthen Security?
Secfense Full Site Protection (FSP) offers an innovative solution to this problem. FSP, one of the functionalities of the Secfense broker, allows you to distinguish between trusted and untrusted networks, offering benefits similar to VPN but without needing to purchase it. A key element of FSP is the requirement to activate a second factor of authentication on a trusted network, which is only possible when the user is on company premises. After registering, the user can log in to the application from anywhere, maintaining high security.
Protection Against Unauthorized Access
With FSP, Netscaler Gateway becomes invisible to automated Internet scanning tools and unauthorized users. This ensures that systems remain protected even when a new vulnerability is discovered. IT teams gain valuable time to implement the necessary updates without the pressure and fear of being hacked.
Administrative Decisions and Flexibility
Security administrators with FSP from Secfense have full control over the authentication process. They can choose a multi-factor authentication method and quickly run it in any application. In addition, it is up to them to decide which applications should be protected by the FSP option and which can benefit from a more lenient security policy. FSP can be turned on and off in the admin panel, giving you flexibility in managing security.
Summary
Secfense Full Site Protection is a step forward in protecting organizations from the rapidly changing landscape of cyber threats. It provides advanced protection against zero-day attacks and increases IT systems’ overall resilience against various cyber threats. In an era of increasing cyberattacks, FSP from Secfense is a critical tool in any organization concerned about the security of its data and resources.
