Hi, Seems to me hype, no more... Our no-hype gurus are talking about how an intrusion can be identified. Up to now - if i'm not mistaken - what we can say is: We can process the log and the audit trail, in order to minimize the part which needs human inspection and further analysis to find out if it was a "hack" or not. I don't belive that any of our existing code - be it stateful inspection, application gw, whatever - is capable of identifing all future attack types, capable of deciding if a "never ever seen someting" is a hack or not. Third: what kind of counter attack would it launch? Is it continuously developping new attacks? Or is it trying sequentially all the already known exploits? If yes, an up to date firewall POSSIBLY can resists all of them. regards, Zoltan
Anyone else heard of this? Seems like pure hype based on fiction to me....Is this pure marketing smoke, or is there some sort of unreal counter-attack technology bundled into this product?
