[Network Security] Defend and Protect Against Disruptions to Your Infrastructure

FortiDDoS Protection Solution defends enterprise data centers against DDoS attacks by leveraging an extensive collection of known DDoS methodologies, creating a multi-layered approach to mitigate attacks. FortiDDoS massively parallel machine- learning architecture delivers the fastest and most accurate DDoS attack mitigation available. FortiDDoS uses autonomous machine learning to build an adaptive baseline of normal activity from hundreds- of-thousands of parameters and then monitors traffic patterns against those baselines. Should an attack begin, FortiDDoS sees the deviation and immediately takes action to mitigate it, often from the first packet. FortiDDoS monitors, responds, and reports on the mitigations it has performed, not attacks where your team or the vendor ERT/NoC must intervene.

Participants, who will attend this lab will configure FortiDDoS from scratch and using detection mode to learn the threshold and will then apply the system recommended threshold to your Service protection profile.

Participants who attend this workshop will learn how to:

  • Setup and configure FortiDDoS from scratch
  • Configure Service Protection Profiles and protection sub-nets
  • Generate and characterize an attack
  • Reduce false positive DDoS attacks
  • Differentiate between FortiDDoS and FortiGate
