Juniper Networks has released its Adaptive Threat Profiling feature for Juniper Advanced Threat Prevention (ATP) Cloud, WootCloud HyperContext integration for device profiling and Juniper Secure Connect VPN application, giving organisations deep network visibility and extending security policy and access control beyond the branch office.
Using the ATP Cloud’s Adaptive Threat Profiling it is possible to to automatically create security intelligence threat feeds based on who and what is currently attacking the network and who the attack is targeting. This enables automated closed-loop protection across network infrastructure through SecIntel threat feeds. It is then possible to classify traffic based on endpoint OS and build custom threat intelligence feeds that can be used for further inspection or blocking at multiple enforcement points, with response to attacks in real-time and at scale.
Security policies can be augmented with Adaptive Threat Profiling feeds which automatically populate in the event of an intrusion to stop an attack before it becomes an incident.
Juniper Networks SRX Series firewalls act as sensors throughout the network on tap ports, identifying and sharing intelligence to in-line devices and mobilising real-time enforcement automatically, wherever it is needed most.
WootCloud HyperContext Integration
For complete network device visibility, WootCloud HyperContext integrates with SRX Series firewalls, ATP Cloud and Juniper Mist Cloud to deliver device profiling, threat detection and automated microsegmentation and access control to reduce risk. This broadens attack visibility to include traffic flows and points in the network that were previously invisible to IT security staff.
Automatically detect IoT devices on the network and place them in separate VLANs to cut off propagation should compromise occur.
Enforce secondary authentication or systematically limit access for devices as their risk to the network increases.
Juniper Secure Connect
Juniper Secure Connect provides remote access, supporting both IPSec and SSL-VPN, with a simple configuration process, using built-in automation and ensuring optimal performance and connectivity. It Keeps remote users connected and productive, while ensuring business continuity and security. Along with Juniper SD-WAN and WAN Assurance driven by Mist AI, allows organisations to scale quickly and easily, adapting to changes to the network perimeter and attack surface.
“We’re extending security in ways that turn ‘dumb pipes’ into intelligent sensors and enforcement points that are able to dynamically optimise protections as attacks are happening. We can provide comprehensive visibility across an organisation into who and what is on the network and give our customers the means to limit their risk with minimal impact to their end users,” said Samantha Madrid, VP of Security Business and Strategy, Juniper Networks.
