Our company has been using FastNetMon to improve detection on malicious traffic targeting our cloud infrastructure. The improvements provided by this tool are helping us to early detect and trigger mitigation techniques before the situation evolve to critical stages, when availability starts being affected. FastNetMon empower users to customize thresholds based on their own traffic patterns, as well integrate with other tools such as time series databases and anomaly detection algorithms. We are truly grateful to Pavel Odintsov and all the contributors, and wish the project further success making DDoS detection open source and free accessible to internet community.

We have recent implemented FastNetMon for alerting of DDoS attacks on our network as well as automatically triggering blackhole action. It is great to see an active community of FastNetMon users as well as a rapid pace of new features being added to the platform. The main feature that attracted me to FastNetMon was the support for handling multiple input methods simultaneously (sflow, NetFlow and on-the-wire capture).

We are using FastNetMon as core of our anomalies detection system (FlowSense). Its robustness helps us detect 99% attacks in less than 5 seconds which allows us efficiently mitigate them and send nice attack reports to clients. The versatility of FastNetMon platform makes it a universal tool which can be integrated to any infrastructure, even as complex as ours. I look into further platform development and strongly recommend it for everyone concerned in fast attack detection in their networks.

PrimeTel was looking to enhance its ability to detect and filter DDoS attacks coming into its network. Fastnetmon has shown to be the most effective solution for the job. Compared to other options, cost of integration was very competitive and we now get an insight into an attack within a minute. This allows us to activate necessary mitigating measures practically immediately.

First of all let me thank you for sharing FastNetMon project at github. We have been using it for about 2 months for early detection of DDoS attacks towards our customers. Currently we are monitoring ~ 1000 subnets and using traffic samples collected via sFlowv5 protocol configured on our core switches. The FastNetMon is running on a virtual server with 1 CPU core (Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620 v3 @ 2.40GHz) and 4 Gbps of RAM. We are monitoring only incoming traffic and do not use any scripts, bgp announcement, etc. At the moment we use it as notification tool only. FastNetMon is great tool, efficient and reliable. Its installation is easy as a,b,c.
