BLOCK A SIMULATED ATTACK WITH FORTIGATE ON AWS

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Traffic moving between your AWS Region and Outposts can bypass inspection if your security stack isn't positioned in the middle. This solution template deploys a fully configured FortiGate Next-Generation Firewall [5] with AWS Gateway Load Balancer in one AWS CloudFormation stack. What you get: • Automated deployment: VPCs, Transit Gateway, IAM roles, and security policies — pre-configured. • Unified hybrid inspection: Monitor north-south and east-west traffic across VPCs and Outposts from one dashboard. • Hands-on IPS test: Create a sensor and block a simulated malicious download, step by step.
