Security News > 2020 > October > Juniper Launches Adaptive Threat Profiling, New VPN Features
The three new features provide adaptive threat profiling for Juniper's ATP Cloud, the integration of WootCloud HyperContext for device profiling, and Secure Connect VPN for remote working beyond the branch office.
Adaptive Threat Profiling makes use of Juniper's SRX series firewalls to act as sensors throughout the network.
"All of our firewalls," explains Madrid, "Through our ATP Cloud, have the ability to assess, in real time, changes to the environment, and can customize threat intelligence and distribute it not just to the firewalls, but to all the networking devices. As changes occur, whether that's a new device or a new threat, we can automatically adapt to those changes with network-specific intelligence." This is particularly relevant at a time when adversaries are customizing their attacks to specific targets.
As soon as a targeted attack is recognized anywhere on the network, information on that threat is distributed to every Juniper device on the network, and the relevant response can be taken.
The new Secure Connect offering, which simply requires the installation of an app on the remote device, supports both IPSEC and SSL-VPN. The new VPN allows remote users to stay securely connected to the corporate network.
