Proofpoint Emerging Threats Pro Ruleset

Advanced cyber-attack campaigns are perpetrated by a variety of actors with motives ranging from profit to espionage. When attackers get through, you need to know immediately, so you can limit the damage. The only way to know is to deploy technology designed to detect when attackers have bypassed these systems.

Proofpoint ET Pro is a timely and accurate rule set for detecting and blocking advanced threats using your existing network security appliances, such as next-generation firewalls (NGFW) and network intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS). ET Pro covers more than 40 different categories of network behaviors, malware command and control, DoS attacks, botnets, informational events, exploits, vulnerabilities, SCADA network protocols, exploit kit activity, and more.
