DefensePro provides automated DDoS protection from fast-moving, high volume, encrypted or very-short duration threats and is part of Radware’s attack mitigation solution. It defends against IoT based, Burst, DNS and TLS/SSL attacks to secure organizations against emerging network multi-vector attacks, ransom DDoS campaigns, IoT botnets, phantom floods, and other types of cyberattacks.
In this course we focus on the advanced features used in many different DDoS protection deployments. The course starts with a short repetition of the basics learned in the DefensePro Level 1 training and we give an overview of different DoS attacks.
We go into more detail on traffic filters and signatures like we did in the Level 1 training. Flood detection with SSL protected data are our next topics. For behavioral protection, we have several different protective measures on our agenda; Anti-Scanning, UDP Advanced Protection and Quantile DOS.
Next is troubleshooting and providing a well working setup for it. The hands-on part includes tuning and “War Games”. We have prepared different DDoS attacks; students are required to find out the attacking parameters and setup suitable protection on DefensePro.
Target Audience and Prerequisites The DefensePro Level 1 certification is a prerequisite.
This course is designed for technicians with a solid knowledge of networking in the areas of switching and routing. Additionally, knowing how applications and network protocols are working (like TCP, HTTP, HTTPS) is a key asset for setting up signatures and traffic filters. Knowledge of penetration testing is very useful. The features and functions of Radware devices discussed in this document are based on the following firmware version.
