Abstract
Zero-day vulnerabilities are undisclosed security flaws exploited by attackers to gain unauthorized access to vulnerable systems. Firewalls and antivirus software are essential for preventing intrusions. While firewalls monitor network traffic to prevent unauthorized access, they may struggle to filter all incoming traffic due to attacker-generated anomalies. We present a novel approach to automate the generation of dynamic firewall rules, aiming to address this challenge through the utilization of a custom software solution in conjunction with a suitable programming language. This approach autonomously maintains and updates firewall rules, bolstering network security and streamlining the identification and mitigation of zero-day vulnerabilities. We evaluated the approach on a simulated network, demonstrating its efficacy in detecting and preventing unauthorized access through zero-day attacks. Our automated method for dynamic firewall rule creation offers an efficient means to address zero-day vulnerabilities. It empowers businesses to safeguard against cyberattacks and protect sensitive data. With adaptability to changing network requirements, it is valuable for organizations of different scales. In conclusion, our proposed automated approach for dynamic firewall rule generation provides a scientifically validated solution to address zero-day vulnerabilities. It enhances security measures, defends against emerging threats, and enables businesses to protect their systems and data effectively. |
