The Apache Log4j vulnerability (CVE-2021-44228) has taken the Internet by storm in the past few days.  This blog details quick ways Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) and Secure IPS users can protect against attacks leveraging this vulnerability while patching their infrastructure. Talos first released updated Snort rules on Friday, December 10. For customers inspecting ingress traffic— with decryption if traffic is TLS (Transport Layer Security) encrypted — these rules will alert and can block attacks…

Intel announced a collaboration with Inspur, Ruijie Networks, and Silicom Connectivity Solutions to design and develop new infrastructure processing units (IPU) using both a CPU and FPGA. IPU—what Intel calls a data-processing unit (DPU)—is a programmable networking device designed to offload network processing tasks such as storage virtualization, network virtualization, and security from the CPU. That reduces overhead and frees up the CPU to focus on its primary data-processing functions. They are becoming a real…
