There are still many features to highlight for NetScaler but from a base good knowledge (KB) Article CTX138858 just out on this, thought it would be good to share the automatic updates NetScaler Application Firewall details (AppFW) signatures.
As many of you already know, NetScaler AppFW not only positive security model but also the negative security model using signatures by NetScaler partnership with Sourcefire. Now, to improve protections with new vulnerabilities that may arise and the partner actually providing more advantageous for the hybrid model of NetScaler, signatures can now be automatically updated. This helps customers not have to do a manual intervention under way for the latest signatures. NetScaler already had some ability to automate signature updates, but this process improves the user experience significantly.
As stated in the article, the signatures are automatically updated on an hourly basis, which saves users time still now checking the latest update. Users just activate the automatic update function NetScaler and then connects to the server hosting the signatures to see if a new version is available.
