App Security→SSL Visibility

The majority of malware and data exfiltration hides within SSL/TLS encryption, blinding your security inspection tools. Decrypt and orchestrate to make your controls more effective. 

WHAT IS SSL VISIBILITY AND ORCHESTRATION?

70% of all Internet traffic is encrypted. And F5 Labs threat research shows that 68% of malware uses encryption to hide when calling back to command and control.

Decrypting and re-encrypting traffic is computationally intensive, and many inspection tools—like next-generation firewalls and malware protection platforms—are simply unable to decrypt at scale. But visibility into encrypted traffic is not enough. The daisy chain of decryption and re-encryption through multiple security devices induces unnecessary latency and complexity. Policy-based orchestration breaks the daisy chain to most effectively stop malware and protect user privacy.

SOLUTION: SSL VISIBILITY AND ORCHESTRATION

 

SSL/TLS Visibility

Find the hidden threats in both inbound and outbound traffic. 

 

Dynamic Service Chaining

Easily add and remove security tools in your architecture over inline layer 2, inline layer 3, inline web proxy, ICAP, and TAP.    

 

Add Context to Orchestration

Drive traffic to security tools based on context like IP reputation, port/protocol, and URL categorization.    

 

Granular Control

Set custom granular policies regarding how encrypted traffic is routed through your architecture.    

 

Centralize Key Management

No need to copy private encryption keys to multiple devices.    

 

Support All Deployment Modes

Easily integrates into complex architectures over layers 2 or 3.    

 

Simplify Cipher Management

Choose cipher sets in one place, with the latest available PFS ciphers.    

 

Enable Passive Inspection

Use out-of-band tools even when the traffic is encrypted with perfect forward secrecy.
