Abstract
The rapid change in the dynamics of attack vectors require an update in traditional firewall and load balancer policies in order to minimise the possibilities of network-compromise. This study proposes the deployment of strict security policies on next-generation firewalls cluster along with the deployment of strict redundancy policies on load balancer for ensuring the overall security of network fabric from a wide range of recent threat vectors. The security of a network fabric cannot be enhanced by traditional and hierarchical placement of internet cloud, firewall, router, and networking devices. The proposed fabric possesses the deployment of strict security policies on synchronised next-generation firewalls cluster and strict redundancy policies on load balancer is capable to defend the network resources from a wide range of incoming malicious intrusions. The proposed next-generation firewalls and load balancer policies are capable to defend the fabric from incoming intrusions. The approach is successful for detecting and blocking a broad range of attack vectors in comparison with the similar previous works in the field.
