The use of covert application-layer tunnels to bypass security gateways has become quite popular in recent years. By encapsulating blocked or controlled protocols such as peer-to-peer, chat and e-mail into others allowed by the security policies, such as HTTP, SSH or even DNS, both legitimate and malicious users can effectively neutralize many security restrictions enforced at the network edge. Traditional firewalling techniques, based on Application Layer Gateways and even pattern-matching mechanisms are becoming practically useless as tunneling tools grow more sophisticated. |
