Optimization

WiJungle proprietary operating system having separate data,control and management plane now supports :

1. FastPath packet optimization : it improves firewall throughput performance by automatically putting trusted and secure packets on the fast path where they don’t have to be processed by the firewall policy engine for identification and destination. Instead, the firewall forwards these packets directly to the security engine for scanning om the parallel pass architecture.

2. TLS 1.3 : native TLS 1.3 inspection and decryption capability in transparent & proxy mode with an option to restrict with downgrading to TLS 1.2. And the decrypted data can be send to multiple security engines like GAV, CFS, IPS, AVC etc. Also is enabled in default mode in Managment GUI dashboard, SSL VPN etc.

3. Dual Processor: Higher end models like  U2500, U3500, U5000, U5000HX, U7500, U7500V etc have dual processor having multiple cores on their motherboard where some NIC are connected with CPU 1 and other with CPU 2 enhancing the processing capability and increasing the throughput & can scale against dynamic latest security threats.

4. Multi Factor Authentication: With Admin & User authentication(AD,LDAP,Radius,Kerberos,Local DB,API Based Authentication etc), you can enable 2/3FA with email/sms/hw token/google/twilio etc authenticators for all the platforms like windows/Mac/Linux/Android/Ios etc for unlimited users.

5. Port Agnostic Inspection & App Control: appliances are now capable of automatically detecting & inspecting the different protocols over non-standard communication ports and apply protecting policies according to them. Application Control accuracy deeply increases due to this whose numerous signatures can be updated on manual or automated basis and works independent of web filter service. Along with predefined 7000+ predefined app signatures, custom app list can be made based on different attributes like category, desc,risk etc and cooresponding app group can be selected.

6. Deep Learning based Rule Inspection: access rules can now be inspected with our machine learning models to give proper suggestion for optimization. It has an ability to remove all the active content, macros, block the malicious contents while sending document to the end user as clean document and not to legitimate destination and prevent Cross-site scripting and session hijacking etc attacks. Also added quarantine option.

7. Tap Mode: It allows you to passively monitor traffic flows across a network.

8. Wire Mode / Virtual Wire: A Wire Mode interface does not take any IP address and it is typically configured as a bridge between a pair of interfaces

9. SD-WAN Support: This feature has been added. It has extensive support for SLA monitoring for metrics like delay/latency, jitter, packet loss and adaptive routing(BGP,OSPF,PBR ,Static etc) adjustments by doing routing path selection between different connections like MPLS, ILL, VDSL, DSL, LTE, USB Dongle or broadband etc. to intelligently control the traffic to maximize the quality of the user experience. Load balancing & Routing can be based on various parameters like source/Destination address/service, User/User group & applications. Also you can enable application specific steering along with QoS as well which can done on the same access rule or can be configured separately. Also for ipv6 we have enabled support for Multicast Routing, NAT46, NAT64, NAT66, DNS64 & DHCPv6

10. Terminal & Citrix Support: We have added terminal services and citrix support for authentication.

11. Trusted Platform Module & REST API: WiJungle has a specialized chip which secures its appliances with integrated cryptographic keys and also helps provide security against threats like firmware and ransomware attacksWe have also added rest api support for management which includes CRUD operation for configuration including user, application , ips, web, app filter, routes, vpn, interfaces, zones, gateway etc.

12. Certificate Management & Validation: You can add Certificate Authority, Generate CSR, Generate Self Signed Certificate or can upload custom certificates & CRL. Also you can block invalid certificates.

13. WiJungle Content Caching: Our Web Proxy can cache the content to speed up the connection and can also identify the user identity behind proxy.

14. Central Management: This feature has been added and can be integrated via our cloud console or hardware form factor management console. You can segment the rule base in a sub-policy structure in which only relevant traffic is being forwarded to relevant policy segment for an autonomous system and provides integrated Logging & Reporting with Automated Management and Event Correlation System including IoC intelligence, threat outbreaks. Communication is encrypted and authenticated with PKI Certificates It shows all devices with their respective configuration including sd-wan & physical link up/down, cpu, ram usage etc with SLA tracking and can setup overlay routing, dhcp/dns relay etc. It can create overlay tunnels between multiple locations using an optimal architecture like hub-spoke, dual hub, full mesh etc using our easy to use predefined templates for zero touch provisioning. Logs can reside upto 1 year in the appliance & reduces the storage space requirement between 30 to 40%. Though our appliances have the ability even if management server is unavailable and support over both IPv4 and IPv6 family.

15. Advanced Anti-Bot & Intelligence: It uses a multi-tiered detection engine, which includes the reputation of IPS, URLs, Domains and DNS addresses and detect patterns of bot communications and find C&C traffic patterns. Also with our passive endpoint intelligence, WiJungle shows different parameters like OS,TTL etc and with Machine Learning enabled IOC intelligence we can alert on infected/suspicious hosts in the network.

16. DNS Interceptor & Web Filtering: DNSI intercepts the dns traffic transparently and apply web filtering policies like url,domain block/exemption in custom & predefined categories(90+), score based keyword block/exempt etc, block dns tunneling, bot communications, command and control etc and can shot custom block page. Web Filtering module can also use SSL Certificate inspection for this purpose or ssl session can be decrypted with the help of DPI.

17. Compatible with SNORT Signature: IDPS engine is compatible with SNORT signatures.

18. Enhanced Reports & Analytics: Admin can now generate instant and periodic 1000+ drill-down reports & advanced analytics with the option to export in various formats like xls,csv,pdf,html,xml etc or can be scheduled for FTP/NAS Server or email and can create customize dashboards. Reports can be on per user, application, internet traffic, geo location specific, network flow, web content, malwares, workflow automation, incidents, soc visibility, appliance health, usages, custom query base,blocked/allow connections with rule id, perforamnce stats, risk indicators, user threat quotient & logging attribute etc basis.
