FEATURES

Secure Networking:

Digital acceleration has led to a rapid expansion of attack surfaces and creation of new network edges, including LAN, WAN, 5G, remote workers, and clouds. Fortinet’s Secure Networking approach is the industry’s only converged networking and security platform. This convergence enables AI-powered defense of today’s highly dynamic environments while enabling better productivity and user experience.

Unified SASE:

Fortinet Unified SASE seamlessly integrates essential networking and security technologies delivered via the cloud. Our innovative approach ensures secure access for the hybrid workforce and safeguards applications and data on any cloud. The FortiOS operating system enables seamless and complete convergence of networking and security.

Work From Anywhere:

The way people work has fundamentally evolved, and organizations need to take measures to ensure employees can work productively, safely, and securely whether they are located in the office, at home, or on the road.

Secure Application Journey:

As organizations continue to drive towards digital acceleration, their application journeys sprawl across multiple clouds and virtual and physical data centers. The result is operational complexity, loss of visibility, and potential for misconfigurations, which lead to cybersecurity risks. Fortinet Cloud Security empowers organizations to achieve digital acceleration by securing any application on any cloud.

Secure Operational Technology:

As industrial environments increase connectivity with external and internal applications and corporate IT networks, critical OT assets are exposed. IT/OT silos hinder the deployment of a cybersecurity strategy capable of mitigating threats in real time. The results can be devastating with the potential to disrupt critical infrastructure, resources, and services serving communities. The 2023 Fortinet State of Operational Technology and Cybersecurity Report found that three-fourths of OT organizations reported at least one intrusion in the last year and nearly one-third of respondents reported being victims of a ransomware attack.

Security Operations:

The Fortinet Security Operations (SecOps) platform seamlessly integrates behavior-based sensors to detect and disrupt threat actors across the attack surface and along the cyber kill chain. Backed by our operating system, FortiOS, Fortinet delivers centralized investigation and remediation that can be orchestrated, automated, and/or augmented to reduce cyber risk, cost, and operational effort.

GenAI-powered Security Assistant:

FortiAI uses GenAI to assist security teams to make better decisions, rapidly respond to threats, and save time on even the most complex tasks. The initial release of FortiAI is seamlessly integrated into the user experience of FortiAnalyzer, FortiSIEM, and FortiSOAR SecOps products to help optimize threat investigation and response, SIEM queries, SOAR playbook creation, and more.

CYBERSECURITY PLATFORM

Hybrid Mesh Firewall:

The unification of firewall security and management is accomplished with hybrid mesh firewalls (HMF). This approach offers significant value by combining the benefits of multiple firewall architectures.

Fortinet Security Fabric:

As organizations undergo digital acceleration, their attack surface expands and network complexity increases. At the same time, cyber threats are becoming increasingly automated and innovative. Today’s organizations need a new approach to deliver the expected secure high-performing user-to-application connection. Gartner has named its cybersecurity mesh architecture (CSMA) one of the top strategic technology trends for 2022. It says organizations adopting cybersecurity mesh as part of their collaborative ecosystems will reduce financial losses from cybersecurity attacks by 90%.Gartner’s insight around CSMA may sound like a new initiative, but this type of protection has existed for more than a decade through the Fortinet Security Fabric.

FortiOS Operating System:

Fortinet’s operating system, is the foundation of the Fortinet Security Fabric. Organically built on a common management and security framework, the Fabric is the industry’s highest-performing and most expansive cybersecurity platform. FortiOS enables the convergence of security and networking to close security gaps and simplify management. With FortiOS, you can achieve consistent user experience, common security policies, and visibility and control across environments, including on-premises, cloud, hybrid, and converging IT/OT/IoT infrastructure.

Flexible Consumption Licensing:

FortiPoints delivers a single, universal points-based consumption program designed to empower organizations with the flexibility to right-size their services and spend in securing their cloud and hybrid environments. FortiPoints simplifies deployment decisions with the freedom to dynamically deploy, scale, trial, and upgrade without needing to size for exact services and solutions ahead of time.

Flexible, Usage-Based Security Licensing:

FortiFlex delivers usage-based security licensing that moves at the speed of digital acceleration. It offers a simple, transparent, points-based approach to provide organizations with flexibility and agility to right-size their cybersecurity services and spend. Organizations can freely deploy cybersecurity from Fortinet and scale them up, down, in or out dynamically, without excessive procurement cycles.
