Updates in Azure Firewall
Hello Folks
Today I will discuss about various features that are updated ( that I have used , in my work ) in Azure Firewall. Obviously in this dynamicity , everything changes in a second . But I here I am referring to those updates , which I have gone through in recent times.
So Let's start .
1) IDPS signature's lookup -
Perhaps this is the most interesting feature that , I found in azure firewall and that I have used it in my projects and labs . You can go to IDPS option in Azure Firewall and enable your own signature and set there mode a Alert or deny . What it does like , if you found a false positive where your request is blocked by faulty signature , you can use he signature id and set it to IDPS mode off.
2) TLS Certificate Auto generator -
The second feature that I have worked on is TLS Certificate generator. For non-production you can use this mechanism , which generally creates this mechanism managed identity , key vaults , Self-signed CA certificate .
3) Web Categories Lookup -
Web Categories is a filtering feature that allows administrators to allow or deny web traffic based on categories, such as gambling, social media, and more. They added tools that help manage these web categories: Category Check and MI's-Categorization Request.
4) IDPS Private range IP's -
In Azure Firewall Premium IDPS, Private IP address ranges are used to identify if traffic is inbound or outbound. By default, only ranges defined by Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) RFC 1918 are considered private IP addresses. To modify your private IP addresses, you can now easily edit, remove or add ranges as needed.
