Why Device Fingerprinting Provides Better Network Security than IP Blocking
Unfortunately, most network security products rely on the equivalent of drivers' licenses: IP addresses associated with known attacks and spam. But there is a better way. In this short paper we will examine:
- Why IP reputation-based blocking doesn't catch smart cyber-criminals
- How device fingerprinting changes the economics of hacking
- How device fingerprinting works
- How global intelligence service based upon device fingerprinting can enhance your
network security infrastructure.
