Plug-Ins

4.4 Attack Detection

This plug-in informs you of a possible attack on your computer from the Internet or the

network your computer is connected to. It recommends the steps to be taken as well, in

order to prevent damage to your computer.

The

Attack Detection plug-in lets you specify the conditions in which a warning is to be

displayed. It also has response settings that will be used if a specified security level is

exceeded.

Below is the plug-in’s Options dialog window:

In the section named Alarm level, you move the slider up or down for a higher or lower

alert level:

•

High—an “Attack Detection” alert is displayed even if a single scanning of your

port is detected.

•

Normal—an “Attack Detection” alert is displayed if several ports are scanned or if

a specific port is scanned that Outpost Firewall recognizes as one that is commonly

used in attacks.

•

Low—an “Attack Detection” alert warning is displayed if a multiple attack is

definitely detected.

You can adjust suspicious packets threshold for each of the levels by clicking the

appropriate link. This will bring you the dialog window where you can specify the exact

number of suspicious packets that are considered as an attack.

Specify the steps Outpost Firewall is to follow if an attack on your computer is detected:

•

Show visual alerts when attack is detected—if selected, Outpost Firewall will

display alert message every time an attack is detected.
