Security Metadata Streaming Policies Overview

A metadata streaming policy sends metadata and connection patterns of your network traffic to Juniper Networks ATP Cloud. Using DNS, a metadata streaming policy protects and defends your network from advanced threats. A metadata streaming policy detects domain generation algorithm (DGA) based attacks on DNS packets, DNS tunnels, and threats through HTTP requests. For more information, see Juniper ATP Cloud Administrator Guide and Junos CLI Reference.

To access the Metadata Streaming Policy page, click SRX > Security Subscriptions > Security Metadata Streaming > Metadata Streaming Policy.
