Hi,<br />
We have setup an internal VLAN on our WatchGuard for Guest wifi access. The vlan works as expected and anyone who joins gets the expected IP address/ can browse the internet no problems. What we cant it to do is to work correctly with outlook web access. For some reason whenever I try the owa address I get redirected to the watchgiard ssl login page. If I try on any other external connection it works fine. I have tried an nslookup on the new guest wifi and our other external connections and they all point to the correct external address. ie if I am connected to one external wifi and try to access the url xxxxxx/exchange it work fine and an ns lookup is pointed to the correct external address. If I try and accesss xxxx I get presented with the iis page. If I try the same when connecting via the guest wifi, the nslookup shows the same external ipaddress, however if I try to goto to xxxx/exchange I get a 404 page not found error and if I browse to xxxx I get the watchguard ssl login page.<br />
<br />
What am I missing?<br />
<br />
Cheers,<br />
Paul

WatchGuard

A vulnerability is a weakness which allows an attacker to reduce a system's information assurance. Vulnerability is the intersection of three elements: a system susceptibility or flaw, attacker access to the flaw, and attacker capability to exploit the flaw. To exploit a vulnerability, an attacker must have at least one applicable tool or technique that can connect to a system weakness, known as the attack surface. Vulnerability management is the cyclical practice of identifying, classifying, remediating, and mitigating vulnerabilities. Other vulnerabilities include security risks, security defects and constructs in programming languages that are difficult to use properly.

Vulnerabilities

Ransomware is malicious software, designed to block data access in order to extort money. As a form of malware, ransomware is most often used to infiltrate devices through infected emails or links that, in turn, recognize and take advantage of vulnerabilities in the operating system and installed third-party software.

Ransomware

Network security consists of the policies adopted to prevent and monitor authorized access, misuse, modification, or denial of a computer network and network-accessible resources. Network security involves the authorization of access to data in a network, and covers a variety of computer networks; conducting transactions and communications among businesses, government agencies and individuals. Networks can be private, such as within a company, and others which might be open to public access.

Network Security

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.
