AnyConnect VPN connection concerns

Seeing some AnyConnect VPN rogue IP’s trying to connect this evening, not sure if they are actually making a connection into our firewall..?

 

example of log:

 

Dec 1 20:22:05 AnyConnect VPN AnyConnect VPN connection event msg: Local-IP[OUR MX95 WAN IP] Local-Port[443] Prot[TCP] Peer-IP[71.239.88.253] Peer-Port[51727] Conn-ID[9] TLSv1.2 connection established. Cipher: ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384(49200)

 

Not seeing any actual AnyConnect VPN client connected that are suspicious, just these random TLSv1.2 attempts.

 

We have AnyConnect VPN enabled using SAML with DUO 2-factor setup for VPN allowed users.

 

thanks

I'm not sure but my suggestion is to perform a test connection from a client device to the MX but failing authentication. Then check the MX logs and see if you see a similar event logged or not.

This is a "normal" HTTPS scan you are seeing.  It could be an attacker.  It could be a search engine.  It could even be Shodan.
