I wouldn't rely on it as a 100% line of defense. But it is pretty decent. It catches a lot of random stuff we see coming inbound (and attempting to go outbound.)
It's mostly things like trojans, botnets, SQL server exploits, etc. ---------------------------------------- From: "Jeremy Grip via Af" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2014 6:10 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AFMUG] procera results Anyone know how often the malware signatures are updated, or how good it is?

But here is a graph of what kind of traffic the clients are using as a whole in one days time. Of course Netflix is at top. But i am surprised at how close behind that youtube is (shows up as http media stream) Usually at any given time the Netflix/Youtube accounts for 50-75% of all traffic running through this box.
