ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE203.0.113.42Documentation address

A honeypot observes hostile activity.

An OgmaPot sensor sees attack traffic from the example IP address and contributes the observation to the intelligence pipeline.

OgmaControl manages the intelligence.

The observation is considered alongside other intelligence sources. In this example, the address is selected for inclusion in the managed feed.

A signed update reaches the firewalls.

Subscribed OgmaProtect firewalls receive and verify the signed IP feed before using it for local enforcement.

A device tries to contact the listed IP.

An office workstation attempts an outbound connection. OgmaProtect blocks the matching traffic where feed blocking is enabled.

An outbound warning reaches your team.

The outbound hit raises an alert. With email or a webhook configured, the team can investigate the device. A match does not confirm infection.

Select any stage to stop the animation. Illustrative sequence, not a live feed. Inclusion depends on feed management; blocking depends on your firewall policy. Firewall hit records are not sent back to the feed service.

The feed is an optional premium subscription. Protection depends on the feed content, successful updates and your firewall policy.

Outbound protection & early warning

A blocked connection.
A warning worth seeing.

When a device on your network tries to contact a known malicious IP, it can be a sign that something is wrong.

OgmaProtect can identify the connection, block it and alert you to serious outbound activity, so you know which device needs attention.

  1. 01

    Identify the device.

    See where the connection came from and which destination it tried to reach.

  2. 02

    Interrupt the connection.

    Apply your policy to block traffic matching the threat feed, or raise an alert for investigation.

  3. 03

    Focus on serious events.

    Outbound feed hits raise alerts; routine inbound hits do not. Repeated outbound events are grouped to reduce noise.

A chance to catch warning signs early.

Contact with known malicious infrastructure can reveal activity associated with malware or some ransomware attacks. An early alert gives your team a chance to investigate before the incident escalates.

Illustrative response policy
Connection blocked. Investigation needed.

The matching connection is stopped, and the device is flagged for review. Blocking this connection does not establish that the device is clean.

Connection logged. Investigation needed.

This feed category logs the attempt and raises an outbound alert. It does not block the connection; other firewall rules still apply.

What makes this alert useful?

A clear alert identifies the source device, destination, feed match, event time and firewall action. Outbound events are grouped to reduce repeated notifications. Alerts go to the local system log by default; configure email or a webhook to reach your team.

The next step is to check the device and its endpoint security records. An IP match alone does not confirm ransomware.

Illustrative alert with sample data. Email or webhook notification requires a configured channel. The destination is a documentation address; no notification is sent by this example.

Detection covers matching traffic that passes through the firewall. Use it alongside endpoint protection, patching and tested backups.
