Objective

Fortinet Outbreak places your team inside a real-time defensive challenge at Sea Cure Health just as a HIPAA readiness audit exposes weakened security controls. Credible intelligence confirms that SCRUBZero, a financially motivated threat group, is actively targeting mid-sized healthcare organizations. Your task is to assess the security of critical applications, uncover ongoing attacker activity, and stop the intrusion before sensitive patient data is taken.

Who should play

This scenario is well suited for security analysts, incident responders, SOC defenders, and anyone who enjoys investigating compromised systems, validating suspicious behavior, and working through complex threat activity under pressure.

Why it matters

Healthcare environments are heavily targeted when operational pressure is high. Defenders must know how to analyze live attacks, trace adversary movement, and respond quickly to protect critical services. Outbreak reinforces practical skills such as rapid triage, coordinated response, and threat-driven investigation while demonstrating how modern attackers exploit weakness during moments of instability.

Tools

You will work inside a simulated environment that showcases key elements of the Fortinet Security Fabric:
FortiGate for segmentation, inspection, and policy enforcement
FortiEDR for endpoint detection and response
FortiSIEM for centralized log correlation and alerting
FortiSOAR for automated and guided response actions
