FortiDeceptor components

FortiDeceptor components

The FortiDeceptor platform includes the following components:

  • The FortiDeceptor management console manages and operates the whole platform including deployment, configuration, alerting, analysis, and ECO system integration.
  • FortiDeceptor offers a highly-scalable three-tier architecture that combines three levels of deception:
    • Server / endpoint lures.
    • Medium interaction decoys (IoT / OT).
    • High interaction decoys.

You can deploy deception lures using existing infrastructure tools such as A/D GPO, MS SCCM, and so on.

A single FortiDeceptor appliance can run up to 16 deception VMs that support a total of 256 IP addresses. Each IP address represents a single decoy.

You can download a deception VM from the FortiDeceptor marketplace. You can also allow the end user admin bring their own gold image and convert it to a decoy using the FortiDeceptor decoy customization wizard.
