Fortinet New Offerings for Mid-to Large-Sized Enterprises and MSPs

Expands DDoS Product Family for with four new appliances for data center managers and system architects

Fortinet expanded its Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) product family with four new appliances for data center managers and system architects at mid- to large-sized enterprises and managed service providers (MSPs).

The new FortiDDoS-400B, FortiDDoS-800B, FortiDDoS-1000B and FortiDDoS-2000B appliances are designed to detect and help protect against today’s most damaging and sophisticated DDoS attacks and feature an innovative 100 percent behavior-based DDoS attack mitigation engine. Combined with a new, single-path custom ASIC that both detects and mitigates DDoS attacks, FortiDDoS is able to detect more types of attacks and performs up to 10X faster than other competing DDoS mitigation appliances.

“We’ve dramatically improved the way we identify DDoS attack types since we released our first appliances in 2012. The adaptive, behavior-based attack monitoring introduced in today’s models automatically identifies any type of DDoS attack, including zero-days, and almost immediately takes action to mitigate it,” said Rajesh Maurya, Country Manager, India & SAARC for Fortinet. “What’s more, we’re able to offer this class-leading performance at less than half the cost of our closest competitors.”

“Despite the best efforts by ISPs to defend against DDoS threats, residual and application layer attacks are still able to bring down services in an Internet data center,” said Hemant Jain, vice president of engineering for Fortinet. “Fortinet now provides DDoS attack mitigation with up to 24 Gbps of full duplex throughput in the data center to ensure that critical services are always available.”
