AI Defense Matrix (code name : Tarpits*)

Two AI Defense Schemes prevent Ransomware; Hackers for Netgate, Osigate, Watchguard, Sophos, Juniper, Sonicwall, Snort, Suricata ... firewall platforms

Threats Protection

1. Live Tarpits ( AI machine learning from global clusters, Vulnerability prophet engine ... have hourly update)

Netgate Global research team is constantly examining threats, the AI machine learning vulnerability fingerprint from different sources, and a variety of pfsense to analyze exploits and vulnerabilities. New fingerprints are published as needed through our cloud server. Tarpits unique defense Matrix, a prophet engine, collaborating threat fingerprint form the expensive infrastructures.  We should implement Live Tarpits at the first gate of defense. Tarpits prophecy signatures is written to detect; predict and prevent intrusions; worms; trojan; ransomware; DDoS exploits; Brute force cracking ...

We are in IEEE Communications Society research team.

* IEEE : Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, The world's largest technical professional organization for the advancement of technology.

 

After deep research, We have unique live updated defense matrix as below, have hourly/daily update via our Tarpits cluster servers.

Block the dangerous IPs at the beginning, don't go further protocols negotiation or less inner defense rules calculation, avoid further dangerous sessions, more secure, save bandwidth and CPU time...

  • botnet : Current global robot zombie PC list, botnets can be used to perform DDoS attacks, steal data and hacker may access the device and hijack its connection. have daily update via our Tarpits cluster.
  • sslbl : SSL cert is not 100% secured, SSL Blacklist is a collection of global malicious SSL certificates server IP list, have daily update via our Tarpits cluster.
  • cisbl : Central Intelligence Security black list, a subset of global active hackers' IP, have daily update via our Tarpits cluster.
  • IQRisk : delivers actionable threat IP intelligence to help ensure networks are safe from malicious and potentially malicious threats.
  • DQlists : Rep Query Delivers Multi-Level, Robust Threat Intelligence to Meet the Needs of SME to Enterprises, have daily update via our Tarpits cluster.

    DQlist is providing maximum protection with minimum false positives, daily feed from Global anti-hackers alliance, global DQ lists suitable for most routers and firewalls.

    DQlist IP signature service integrates an ultra-high performance deep packet inspection architecture and dynamically updated IP signature database to deliver complete network protection from application exploits, worms and malicious traffic. A scalable solution supporting virtually any network size.

    • DQlist_classC : Global ipset in CIDR format, shorter list and most effective, any bad guy found then block whole class of network.
    • DQlist_48hrs : Global ipset made from track attacks, spyware, viruses, detected in the last 48 hours.
    • DQlist_30days : Global ipset made from track attacks, spyware, viruses, detected in the last 30 days.
    • DQlist_90days : Global ipset made from track attacks, spyware, viruses, detected in the last 90 days.

  • tarpits : collection of Asia, China, Hong Kong, Macau hackers/spyware IP once triggered the protocols sensor alert, have hourly update via our Tarpits cluster.

    * Local Tarpits included all the above defense matrix (it is very good enough)

Defense proposal, Basic level security

  • define TARPITS as first IP defense layer, set as firewall rules, a small tarpit list can block the most dangerous active threat, less resources, more efficiency. Hourly update is crucial.
  • apply DQlist_48hrs, which have global hackers/ransomware/threats source, need to work with IDS/IPS, defense the rest of the most possible threat, the list is big and involve IDS/IPS rules computation, more resources, more CPU demand, more secured for OSI layers 5~7.

Defense proposal, Mid level security

  • define TARPITS as first IP defense layer, set as firewall rules, a small tarpit list can block the most dangerous active threat, less resources, more efficiency. Hourly update is crucial.
  • apply DQlist_30days, CISBL which have global hackers/ransomware/threats source, need to work with IDS/IPS, defense the rest of the most possible threat, the list is big and involve IDS/IPS rules computation, more resources, more CPU demand, more secured for OSI layers 5~7.

Defense proposal, High level security

  • define TARPITS as first IP defense layer, set as firewall rules, a small tarpit list can block the most dangerous active threat, less resources, more efficiency. Hourly update is crucial.
  • apply DQlist_90days, CISBL, BOTNET, SSLBL which have global hackers/ransomware/threats source, need to work with IDS/IPS, defense the rest of the most possible threat, the list is big and involve IDS/IPS rules computation, more resources, more CPU demand, more secured for OSI layers 5~7.

 

[Live Tarpits] Monthly Subscription : US$26

[Live Tarpits] Half year Subscription : US$156 plus One free month, total 7 months

[Live Tarpits] Annual Subscription : US$312 plus Two free months, total 14 months

* [Live Tarpits] included all the above defense matrix. (For most of the case, the [Live Tarpits] may already good enough.)

 

Enhancement for most kinds of Firewall

2. Global Tarpits (Vulnerability IP signatures from ET open, Cisco Snort Talos, IQRisk, Proofpoint ET Pro, CINS ..., have daily update)

We have Cisco Snort Talos, Proofpoint ET, CINS (Collective Intelligence Network Security) ... We should imply Global Tarpits at middle layers of defense. IP Reputation pre-processor provides IP blacklist/whitelist capabilities, to alert/block/drop/pass traffic from reputation IP list. We can use popular Snort or Suricata IDS/IPS engine to implement Reputation-enabled defense. This pre-processor will address the performance issue and make the IP reputation management easier. Reputation pre-processor runs before other pre-processors.  For most of the case, the [Live Tarpits] may already good enough.
