MALWARE PATROL FOR MIKROTIK

MIKROTIK INTEGRATION OPTIONS

Malware Patrol offers three feeds formatted for MikroTik devices. Combined, these feeds provide protection against a wide range of threats from active, malicious campaigns:

1. Malicious Domains – Prevents access to sites hosting malware, ransomware, phishing, cryptominers, and command-and-control servers (C2s) for over a hundred malware and ransomware families. Blocking C2 traffic alone breaks the cyber kill chain by preventing additional payload downloads, data exfiltration, and ransomware file encryption.

2. DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) Servers – This feed gives security teams control over the use of DoH in their environment. DoH wraps DNS queries in an HTTPS request, which can disguise malicious traffic. Several malware families take advantage of this to use DoH for their C2 communications.

3. Tor Exit Nodes – Malicious actors use Tor to mask their identity and to relay C2 communications. It is generally advisable to block traffic to and from Tor exit nodes. (See what CISA has to say about this topic.)
