Explanation

CN-Series firewall prevents exfiltration by inspecting outbound traffic content and blocking suspicious activity. Exfiltration is a technique used by attackers to steal sensitive data or assets from a compromised network or system, usually by sending them to an external destination, such as a command and control server, a drop zone, or an email address. CN-Series firewall is a containerized firewall that integrates with Kubernetes and provides visibility and control over container traffic. CN- Series firewall prevents exfiltration by inspecting outbound traffic content and blocking suspicious activity using threat prevention technologies, such as antivirus, anti- spyware, vulnerability protection, URL filtering, file blocking, data filtering, and WildFire analysis. CN-Series firewall does not prevent exfiltration by employing custom-built signatures based on hash, distributing incoming virtual private cloud (VPC) traffic across the pool of VM-Series firewalls, or providing a license deactivation API key, as those are not valid or relevant methods for exfiltration prevention.
