Defending Your Network with AED
Arbor Edge Defense (AED) is your network's first and last line of DDOS defense to thwart multi-vector inbound attacks and stop outbound C&C traffic for that “layer 8” infiltration. In this session you will explore best practices for configuring and tuning your AED deployment for optimum DDOS protection. Once tuned, you will have the opportunity to use your AED to spot and stop a variety of common and complex attacks against your network infrastructure.
Join us for to learn how to:
- Create Protection Groups optimized to protect specific network assets
- Spot and assess the impact of a DDoS attack on your network
- Update your AED protections and protection levels to block malicious traffic
- Use outbound filter protections to block malicious C&C traffic
AEM and Adaptive DDoS Protection
Learn about the updated Arbor Enterprise Manager (AEM) console, navigate the new workflows of the user interface (UI), and discover best practices for using AEM to manage your AED deployment. Enable Attack Analysis to view the alert of possible attack traffic and to view the recommendations for mitigating that detected attack. Use AEM to respond to attacks by adjusting the protections on an individual device or multiple devices.
Defending Your Network with Sightline TMS
Current events show us that the importance of cyber and network security could not be more critical than it is today. Security threats that target to hinder elections, impact fuel distribution, and probe the power grid – all potential acts of war, whether from within or from an outside aggressor. Your network is constantly at risk - there is no peace time! Using Sightline's visibility without borders identify these threats and intelligently stop these attacks using Arbor Threat Mitigation System.
Join this session to learn how to:
- Monitor and recognize DDOS attacks against your network
- Using Alert and traffic data, identify the type of attack against your network
- Use a structured attack mitigation workflow to defend your network
- Apply best practices to your own structured mitigation workflow
