Requirements for threat feeds

The firewall blocks threats based on the Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) listed in threat feeds, such as IP addresses, domains, and URLs.

Each threat feed module may have different license requirements.

In addition to the threat feed configurations, make sure you've configured other firewall settings and rules based on the type of IoCs and the traffic.
