Zenarmor (Sensei) / Announcement: OPNsense 24.7 Upgrade

« on: July 25, 2024, 08:28:14 pm »

Dear Zenarmor Users,

The OPNsense upgrade process for major versions does not involve downloading third-party repositories or packages, such as Zenarmor. Instead, it updates the self-contained OPNsense ecosystem to prevent overlap errors and dependency mismatches between OPNsense and third-party repositories. 

Consequently, Zenarmor users who upgrade their OPNsense platforms to the latest version, 24.7, need to install Zenarmor packages that are compatible with the new operating system, FreeBSD 14.1, by running the update. 

In simpler terms, Zenarmor users should complete Zenarmor updates by immediately installing updates after the major OPNsense 24.7 upgrade is finished.

If you encounter any issues during the OPNsense 24.7 upgrade, feel free to contact the Zenarmor team for assistance.

Best Regards
Zenarmor Team

Zenarmor (Sensei) / Guide: What is SYN Flood Attack?

« on: July 23, 2024, 09:06:47 am »

Dear Beloved Zenarmor Users,
A SYN flood interrupts a web service using a TCP/IP handshake vulnerability. In the world of cyber threats, the TCP SYN Flood stands out as a particularly malicious type of denial-of-service (DoS) attack. By manipulating the protocols that govern internet communication, attackers can flood servers, rendering them unavailable to genuine queries.
This article covers the SYN flood attack. Explore the complexities of TCP SYN Flood, a common denial-of-service attack. Learn about its processes, the hazards it may bring to computer networks, and the tactics used to combat such attacks.
