Session Hijacking Prevention Flashcards
Juniper Firewalls can enforce the use of strong encryption and secure protocols for communication. This prevents attackers from intercepting and hijacking sessions through eavesdropping or man-in-the-middle attacks.
Encryption and Secure Protocols
Juniper Firewalls often include session management features that generate and manage unique session tokens for users. These tokens are difficult for attackers to guess, making session hijacking less likely.
Session Management
Juniper Firewalls can enforce access control policies that restrict access to sensitive resources based on user roles and permissions. This limits the opportunities for attackers to hijack sessions.
Access Control Policies
Juniper Firewalls with behavior-based analysis can monitor user behavior and session activities. They can detect anomalies indicative of session hijacking attempts and trigger alerts or block such activities.
Behavior-Based Analysis
Juniper Firewalls can enforce session timeout and inactivity management policies. This ensures that sessions automatically expire after a certain period of inactivity, reducing the window of opportunity for hijackers.
