When Cato Networks was launched and we onboarded our first customers, we were exhilarated to share the disruptive innovation that has turned into an incredible opportunity. Enterprises had become too complex, with many point solutions requiring assessment, integration, deployment, and maintenance. Cato was the remedy to that complexity.

Securing a network against cyber threats requires a thorough understanding of its vulnerabilities. A vulnerability assessment is a detailed process aimed at identifying, evaluating, and ranking potential weaknesses within a network setup. From examining configurations to assessing access controls, this assessment dives deep into every aspect of the network to uncover areas of vulnerability.

LLMNR (Link-Local Multicast Name Resolution) is a protocol used by legacy operating systems for name resolution without a DNS server, compatible with both IPv4 and IPv6. It is included in Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, 8, and 10, and some Linux distributions. Introduced by Microsoft to enhance network resource resolution, LLMNR allows devices to multicast name queries on a local network if the DNS server fails to resolve a name.

Most security companies grow reactively, a continuous, complex cycle of funding and building point solutions to address emerging point problems. Cato Networks chose to revisit and address two decades of accumulated complexities in networking and security infrastructures, looking to finally solve and break the point problem, point solution cycle. Cato envisioned a better way.

We made our WAF Machine Learning models 5.5x faster, reducing execution time by approximately 82%, from 1519 to 275 microseconds! Read on to find out how we achieved this remarkable improvement. WAF Attack Score is Cloudflare's machine learning (ML)-powered layer built on top of our Web Application Firewall (WAF). Its goal is to complement the WAF and detect attack bypasses that we haven't encountered before.

Healthcare and pharma companies are at the forefront of our most important need as humans: saving lives. To succeed, they require highly skilled staff members, medical equipment, drugs and resources. On top of these, there is another equally crucial component that will determine their ability to perform their jobs: their network. A secure, reliable and high performing network will ensure patient safety, data integrity and operational efficiency.

Effective network traffic management is crucial in enterprise networks, telecommunications, data centers, and many other industrial enterprises. The primary goal of network traffic analysis and management is to enhance the overall performance, reliability, and security of the network.

With any IT environment, especially the public cloud, security is a top concern and priority. When leveraging the public cloud, one of the most important steps to ensuring a protected environment is recognizing the shared responsibility model, as it delineates the security obligations between the cloud provider and your organization.
