Hello
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. To prevent the Terrapin attack, you can follow these steps:
- Install the latest security updates from Microsoft for Windows Server.
- Disable the SSH protocol if it is not needed for your server.
- Use a firewall to block incoming SSH traffic from untrusted sources.
- Implement strong passwords and two-factor authentication for SSH access.
- Use intrusion detection and prevention systems to monitor for Terrapin attack attempts.
To scan for the vulnerability, you can use a vulnerability scanner such as Microsoft's Baseline Security Analyzer (MBSA) or a third-party tool like Nessus. These tools can scan your system for known vulnerabilities and provide recommendations for remediation. It is important to regularly scan your system for vulnerabilities and apply security updates as soon as they become available.
Best Regards,
