Attack detection
If the firewall functions of your Gigaset SE366 WLAN are activated, the device monitors
and limits access by incoming data traffic via the Internet connection with a function
called Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI). This allows the Gigaset SE366 WLAN to identify
and block certain types of attack from the network, e.g. Denial of Service (DoS). DoS
attacks are aimed at devices and networks with Internet connections. The aim is not so
much to steal data but to paralyse the computer or network so that network resources
are no longer available. A typical hacker attack involves a remote computer claiming to
be the paralysed device in order to take its place and receive the data intended for it.
You can use the Attack Detection function to change the standard firewall settings and
arrange to be notified by email about any attempted hacker attacks.
