Fortinet FortiDDoS FDD-1500F Network Security/Firewall Appliance

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks remain a top threat to IT security and have evolved in almost every way to do what they do best: shut down access to your vital online services. Unlike intrusion and malware attacks, DDoS attackers have learned that they don't need to attack only end-point servers to shut you down. They attack any IP address that routes to your network: unused IP addresses, Inter-router-link public IP addresses, or Firewall/Proxy/WiFi Gateway public IP addresses.

Cloud-based CDN and DNS-based cloud mitigation cannot protect you from these attacks. What is the impact to your business if your users cannot reach cloud services because your firewall or demarc router public IP is being DDoSed? Your CDN-based web servers may be up but your business is down! Sophisticated multi-vector and multi-layer DDoS attacks use direct and reflected packets where the spoofed, randomized source IP addresses are impossible to ACL.

These attacks are increasingly common as Mirai-style code has morphed into many variants and has been commercialized by providers of "stresser" sites. Anyone can call down large attacks for a few dollars. To combat these attacks, you need a solution that dynamically protects a large attack surface.
