My company is about to purchase and install a Palo Alto Networks firewall which can be configured to intercept outgoing SSL connections. I'm hoping they won't enable the feature but as soon as management see the "protect intellectual property" headline they will jump on it. There is an article/press release on it at http://www.networkworld.com/article/2161439/network-security/ssl-decryption-may-be-needed-for-security-reasons--but-employees-are-likely-to--fre.html http://www.networkworld.com/article/2161439/network-security...
EDIT:
From the above article:
The Palo Alto Networks NGFW uses a certificate-copying mechanism to open up TLS 1.1 sessions (TLS 1.2 for outbound is not yet supported but the process negotiates down to TLS 1.1) that basically works like a corporate-operated man-in-the-middle attack.
Does that mean Chrome/Mozilla will detect the negotiation down and block access to these sites?
- brazzledazzle 11y agoYour company is probably going to drop an internal CA certificate into your operating system certificate store. Chrome uses that and will respect it–including ignoring pinning. Firefox uses its own internal certificate store and getting a corporate CA into those can be more difficult than it's worth.
