In this course, you'll learn how to protect your SSH server against service flood attacks using Endlessh.

Endlessh is an effective tool that protects your SSH server from attacks by acting as a decoy and tricking the potential attackers. In this course, Application Analysis with Endlessh, you'll learn how to utilize Endlessh to protect against service exhaustion flood attacks in an enterprise environment. First, you'll demonstrate how Endlessh should be configured. Next, you'll conduct a service flood attack on an SSH server. Finally, you'll analyze how Endlessh is trapping attackers by slowly sending random SSH banners. By the end of this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge to use these techniques of creating a decoy system using Endlessh, in order to avoid automated attacks against your SSH server.
