malware using encrypted (SSH) transfer over tcp/443

Not applicable

Does Palo Alto have a signature to detect the use of ssh on non-standard ports like 443? I did not see anything in the threat database.

Thanks,

Jim

you need to packet capture the traffic for that.

if you can, it is possible to add custom signature from objects/custom signature tab.

I don't see a signature for that.

you can use security rule with application default to allow only it's default port for ssh or using services with that rule for other ports.

Thanks. I will give that a try. Is it possible to request new signatures and if so how would I do that?

Thanks,

As panos said, that's a rule not a signature. Going back, you can go to Monitor->Traffic and search for (port eq 443) and (app neq ssl) or perhaps (port neq 22) and (app eq ssh).

While you're in the neighborhood, if you have a loose policy and are creating denies, also consider a rule to deny things like crossloop, gre, hamachi, ipsec, ipv6, teredo, and an application filter that looks for subcategory=proxy.

Great advise. Thanks!
