Product Details

What is FortiDeceptor?

Based on deception technology, FortiDeceptor complements an organization’s existing breach protection strategy. As a pro-active security solution, it is designed to deceive, expose and eliminate external and internal threats early in the attack kill chain before any significant damage occurs. FortiDeceptor offers both hardware and virtual appliance that allows flexibility for any organization to deploy in the campus and into the cloud.

Using FortiDeceptor, organizations can create a fake environment that simulates the real network and assets. Through the automatic deployment of decoys and tokens, the deception network integrates with an existing IT/OT/IoT infrastructure to lure external and internal attackers into revealing themselves. FortiDeceptor can serve as an early warning system by detecting an attacker’s activity and the lateral movement of a broader threat campaign. The threat intelligence gathered from the attacker can be applied automatically to inline security controls to stop attacks before any real damage is done.

FortiDeceptor boasts the following advantages:
  • Simple Management - Centrally manage a distributed deployment of FortiDeceptor and intelligent discovery and automated deployment of pre-built or custom decoys.
  • Unified IT-OT breach protection - Lure attacks away from critical assets across both IT and OT environments
  • Improved Security Posture - Protects against both threat actors and their tactics e.g. malware, ransomware via VirusTotal and FortiSandbox integration
  • Actionable Visibility - A GUI driven threat map quickly uncovers threat campaigns targeting your organization
  • Automated Protection - Protects against both threat actors and their tactics e.g. malware, ransomware via VirusTotal and FortiSandbox integration.

The main reason we outsourced FortiDeceptor was to complement the existing Enterprise Security solution. This was because we realized the Enterprise Security and SOAR solutions only concentrate on attacks on the main assets (servers); so that in the event of an attack, lateral systems like CPUs are exposed. With FortiDeceptor, we however eliminate attacks on the lateral assets before significant damages.
  • Management is simple - centralized deployment.
  • Easy to deploy custom decoys for the Operational Technology.
  • FortiSandbox integration has limited/basic Next Generation Firewall (NGFW) capabilities.
From my experience FortiDeceptor works well alongside established SIEM systems for endpoint protection for instance secure, water-tight systems to send emails to clients and customers. It allows us to equally concentrate on the security of both external and internal OT environment. It is a smart solution to counter malware. However, its not sufficient enough to secure your networks that why we are using it with the SOAR software.
  • It deploys decoys automatically, saving us the manpower.
  • It has been the way to go for cybersecurity in our converged IT and OT environment.

FortiDeceptor protects our network from all aspects of malicious attacks. It's a proactive approach to Internet security rather than reacting as problems occur but putting up a giant roadblock to would-be attackers and stopping any major problems before they start. It's not overly complicated to use and does the job.
  • Protects against all types of malware.
  • Provides visibility to potential attacks to your network.
  • Blocks access to inappropriate websites.
  • The GUI for FortiDeceptor is very detailed but can be a little tricky to navigate with many options spread out in its menus.
  • The "attack map" gets points on its appearance but I'm not sure how useful it is as it's simply full of IP addresses and geographic locations.
FortiDeceptor is a useful service for a large corporate network that has extensive network resources and can commit the manpower to protect them. It's a straightforward approach to offer a high degree of protection from malicious content and attacks. A smaller network might not benefit from a traditional firewall and IPS would likely be sufficient.
  • Internet security is a gamble. It's hard to know the cost of a "would-be" attack. FortiDeceptor is basically an insurance policy and for that, it is a great investment.
The advantage of using FortiDeceptor is that it is available as either a standalone appliance or a VM. Fortinet does an excellent job of supporting this product (as they do with all of their products) and it's easy to manage. It's also great to have one vendor for all of our security products as the GUI is very well done and as familiar as using the FortiGate firewalls.
