New Features & Enhancements
- Suspicious IP Quarantine: This new IPS feature lets you temporarily block inbound traffic from malicious IP addresses. When these IPs aggressively scan a network in the account, IPS blocks this traffic for a few minutes. You can enable the feature in the IPS Policy section. Read more.
- Critcal IPS Protection for SMBv3 Vulnerability: According to this Microsoft advisory, attackers can exploit the SMBv3 vulnerability and execute code on target Windows computers.
- We recommend that you immediately install the Microsoft patch (CVE-2020-0796) on all Windows computers in your organization.
- Cato customers with IPS that blocks all traffic are automatically updated against this vulnerability. In addition, we strongly recommend that you enable IPS protection (Security > Threat Protection > IPS) with the Block action for all traffic. Read more about IPS.
- Enhancement for Log Exporter Records: We added AD (Active Directory) name to records that you export under the field name sourceUserId (the CEF key is suid).
- Introducing SSO for MDR Portal: For MDR customers, we now support SSO authentication to the MDR portal using the Cato Management Application credentials, https://catomdr.zendesk.com/
