The following table contains key features of the F5® Herculon DDoS Hybrid Defender®.
Features: | |
---|---|
DDoS Mitigation: | All layer 3, 4, & 7 DoS/DDoS threats including flood/sweep with Src/Dst IP address awareness, UDP / DNS / HTTP / TCP / SIP / SYN / ACK / RST / FIN using sub-second detection, network behavior analysis, 120+ DDoS vectors, application anomaly detection, dynamic filtering, protocol analysis, source tracking, control policies, and more |
DDoS Auto-Threshold Setting: |
Automatically generated and adjusted for all DDoS network and application threshold values for TPS, PPS, and requests per second |
Malicious Bot Defense: | Proactive bot defense, captcha challenges, headless browser detection, bot categorizations identifying severity and good/bad bots, device fingerprinting |
IP Intelligence: | Bad actor information can be communicated across other DHD devices; F5 IP Intelligence licensed services provide global DDoS threat intelligence feeds |
DDoS Detection: | Out-of-band SPAN port, Netflow monitoring |
SSL Inspection (Decryption): | Advanced, purpose-built TLS stack. Hardware accelerated: Key exchange and bulk inspection; RC4, DES, 3DES, AES-CBC, AESGCM, AES-GMAC, RSA, DSA, DH, ECDSA, ECDH, MD5, SHA, SHA2 ciphers. Keys protected by F5 Secure Vault. FIPS 140-2 Levels 1, 2, and 3 available |
Reporting and Forensics: | Dashboard summary current attack and drill-down reporting, standard and customizable charts and graphs; blocked/passed traffic; app health, bot signatures; Top 10 threats/destination IPs/source_IPs; sys mon; max # of attacks; IPs participating in attack (dashboard) |
Mitigation Techniques: | Rate limiting/blocking, connection limiting, source limiting, shunning/ denylisting/allowlisting, BGP route injection and RTBH (source and destination), dynamic signature filtering. Volumetric/cloud scrubbing redirection: manual or automated. |
Management: | REST; CLI, Web UI; RBAC management |
Deployment Modes: | Asymmetric Inline active/inactive; VLAN bridge mode; OOB Span/TAP monitoring with Netflow, packet data; appliance or virtual edition (software) |
Event Notifications: | SNMP, Syslog, email |
Cloud Signaling: | BGP / BGP Flowspec route injection for manual or automated redirection to licensed F5 Silverline or third-party volumetric scrubbing solutions. REST API route activation with licensed F5 Silverline DDoS Protection cloud-based scrubbing. |
High Performance (HA): | Support HA active/passive |
