Update FortiDeceptor firmware

A best practice is to stay current on patch releases for your current major release. Only update to a new major release or version when you are looking for specific functionality in the new major release or version. For more information, see the FortiDeceptorRelease Notes or contact Technical Support.

Before any firmware update, complete the following:

  • Download the FortiDeceptor firmware image and Release Notes document from the Fortinet Customer Service & Support Review the Release Notes, including the special notices, upgrade information, product integration and support, and resolved and known issues.
  • Back up your configuration file. It is highly recommended that you create a system backup file and save it to your management computer. You can also schedule the system to back up system configurations to a remote server.
  • Plan a maintenance window for the firmware update. If possible, consider setting up a test environment to check that the update does not negatively impact your network.

To update the FortiDeceptor firmware:

  1. Go to Dashboard > System Information > Firmware Version.
  2. In the System Information widget beside Firmware Version, click Update or UPDATE AVAILABLE.
  3. Click Choose File and locate the firmware image on your management computer; then click Submit to start the upgrade.

Alternatively, in the AVAILABLE FIRMWARE pane Install column, click the download icon beside the firmware release you want. The system upgrades and restarts automatically.

When the update is complete, test your FortiDeceptor device to ensure that the update was successful.

LDAP Servers

FortiDeceptor supports remote authentication of administrators using LDAP servers. To use this feature, configure the server entries in FortiDeceptor for each authentication server in your network.

If you have configured LDAP support and require users to authenticate using an LDAP server, FortiDeceptor contacts the LDAP server for authentication. To authenticate with FortiDeceptor, the user enters a user name and password. FortiDeceptor sends this user name and password to the LDAP server. If the LDAP server can authenticate the user, FortiDeceptor authenticates the user. If the LDAP server cannot authenticate the user, FortiDeceptor refuses the connection.

The following options are available:

Create New Add an LDAP server.
Edit Edit the selected LDAP server.
Delete Delete the selected LDAP server.

The following information is displayed:

Name LDAP server name.
Address LDAP server address.

SNMP

SNMP is a method to monitor your FortiDeceptor system on your local computer. You need an SNMP agent on your computer to read the SNMP information. Using SNMP, your FortiDeceptor system monitors for system events including CPU usage, memory usage, log disk space, interface changes, and malware detection. Go to System > SNMP to configure your FortiDeceptor system’s SNMP settings.

SNMP has two parts: the SNMP agent or the device that is sending traps, and the SNMP manager that monitors those traps. The SNMP communities on the monitored FortiDeceptor are hard coded and configured in the SNMP menu.

The FortiDeceptor SNMP implementation is read-only — SNMP v1, v2c, v3 compliant SNMP manager applications, such as those on your local computer, have read-only access to FortiDeceptor system information and can receive FortiDeceptor system traps.

You can also download FortiDeceptor and Fortinet core MIB files.

Configure the SNMP agent

The SNMP agent sends SNMP traps that originate on FortiDeceptor to an external monitoring SNMP manager defined in one of the FortiDeceptor SNMP communities. Typically, an SNMP manager is an application on a local computer that can read the SNMP traps and then generate reports or graphs.

The SNMP manager can monitor FortiDeceptor to determine if it is operating properly or if critical events are occurring. The description, location, and contact information for this FortiDeceptor system is part of the information an SNMP manager collects. This information is useful if the SNMP manager is monitoring many devices, and it enables a faster response when FortiDeceptor requires attention.

To configure SNMP agents:

  1. Go to System > SNMP.
  2. Configure the following settings:
SNMP Agent   When enabled, the FortiDeceptor SNMP agent sends FortiDeceptor SNMP traps.
Description   Description of this FortiDeceptor to identify this unit.
Location Location of this FortiDeceptor if it requires attention.
Contact Contact information of the person in charge of this FortiDeceptor.
SNMP v1/v2c Create, edit, or delete SNMP v1 and v2c communities. You can enable or disable communities in the edit page. Columns include: Community Name, Queries, Traps, Enable.
SNMP v3 Create, edit, or delete SNMP v3 entries. You can enable or disable queries in the edit page. Columns include: Username, Security Level, Notification Host, and Queries.

To create an SNMP v1/v2c community:

DMZ Mode

Deploy a FortiDeceptor hardware unit or VM in the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). You can monitor attacks on the DMZ network when FortiDeceptor is installed in the DMZ network.

Limitations of the DMZ Mode

The DMZ Mode in FortiDeceptor functions like regular mode with the following exceptions:

  • When DMZ mode is enabled, the banner displays DMZ-MODE.
  • In Deception > Deployment Network, Deception MonitorIP/Mask is hidden. See Set up the Deployment Network on page 10.
  • In Deception > Decoy & Lure Status in the Deception Status view, the Attack Test selection is disabled.
  • Decoy VMs are limited to one deploy Interface. For information about IP address range, see Deploy Decoy VMs with the Deployment Wizard on page 10.

To enable DMZ mode in the CLI:

dmz-mode -e

To disable DMZ mode in the CLI: dmz-mode -d

Use the GUI to configure and manage FortiDeceptor.

To connect to the FortiDeceptor GUI:

  1. Connect the port1 (administration) interface of the device to a management computer using an Ethernet cable.
  2. Configure the management computer to be on the same subnet as the internal interface of the FortiDeceptor unit:
    • Change the IP address of the management computer to 168.0.2.
    • Change the IP address of the network mask to 255.255.0.
  3. Go to https://192.168.0.99.
  4. Type admin in the Name field, leave the Password field blank, and click Login.

You can now proceed with configuring your FortiDeceptor unit.

Connect to the CLI

You can use CLI commands to configure and manage FortiDeceptor.

To connect to the FortiDeceptor CLI:

  1. In the FortiDeceptor banner at the top, click the CLI Console

The CLI Console pane opens.

  1. If necessary, click Connect and enter your username and password.

The CLI Console pane has icons to disconnect from the CLI console, clear console text, download console text, copy console text, open the CLI console in its own window, and close the console.

FortiDeceptor – Introduction

Leave a reply

Introduction

FortiDeceptor creates a network of decoy VMs to lure attackers and monitor their activities on the network. When attackers attack decoy VMs, their actions are analyzed to protect the network.

Key features of FortiDeceptor include:

  • Deception OS: Windows, Linux, or SCADA OS images are available to create Decoy VMs. l Decoy VMs: Decoy VMs that behave like real endpoints can be deployed through FortiDeceptor. l Lures: Lures are services, applications, or users added to a Decoy VM to simulate a real user environment.
  • FortiDeceptor Token Package: Install a FortiDeceptor Token Package to add breadcrumbs on real endpoints and lure an attacker to a Decoy VM. Tokens are normally distributed within the real endpoints and other IT assets on the network to maximize the deception surface. Use tokens to influence attackers’ lateral movements and activities. Examples of what you can use in a token include: cached credentials, database connections, network share, data files, and configuration files. l Monitor the hacker’s actions: Monitor Incidents, Events, and Campaign.
  • An Event represents a single action, for example, a login-logout event on a victim host.
  • An Incident represents all actions on a single victim host, for example, a login-logout, file system change, a registry modification, and a website visit on a single victim host.
  • A Campaign represents the hacker’s lateral movement. All related Incidents are a Campaign. For example, an attacker logs on to a system using the credentials found on another system.
  • Log Events: Log all FortiDeceptor system events.
