In our fully isolated REDLab, the Veritas team detected abnormal activity when testing NetBackup clients with live malware samples. The Client Health anomaly extension checks the health of the digital host certificate deployed on a NetBackup client and triggers a system anomaly when a compromised certificate is detected. Once this condition is detected, the Client Health anomaly extension creates a critical audit event that indicates a break down in communication with the NetBackup client. An alert is also generated which can be relayed into the operating system logs (syslogs or event viewer), or into an external log aggregation platform such as SIEM/XDR or Veritas IT Analytics tools.
You can download this new NetBackup Anomaly extension from the Veritas Download Center. For more information, review the NetBackup™ Anomaly Detection Extensions Guide.
