Fast Flux
A technique where attackers rapidly change IP addresses of malicious servers, using a botnet to evade detection and takedown efforts.

Firewall / NGFW
A network security system that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing traffic based on rules. An NGFW adds deeper inspection of applications and threats to block advanced attacks.
Learn more >
FlowSpec

Learn more >
Honeypot
A honeypot is a decoy system set up to attract cyberattacks. It helps defenders detect threats and study attacker behavior in a controlled environment.
