FortiOS
The Fortinet Security Fabric is powered by FortiOS, which provides unified security and administration across networks, cloud, and hybrid environments.
It offers protection powered by AI, lowers complexity, gets rid of security silos, and boosts operational effectiveness. FortiOS maintains performance while improving threat detection, anomaly analysis, and remediation through the integration of generative AI.
ASIC
Performance is improved by Fortinet's specially designed SPUs (Security Processing Units), which provide up to 520 Gbps of secured throughput while lowering power consumption and increasing efficiency. SPUs, as opposed to conventional CPUs, provide for lower latency, quicker threat detection, and security inspections.
They use security features like VXLAN, SSL, IPS, and zero trust to improve speed. A RISC-based CPU and Fortinet's SPU are combined in the Secure SD-WAN ASIC SP5 to provide quick application identification, effective IPsec VPN performance, NGFW security, deep SSL inspection, and increased security to the access layer for SD-Branch transformation.
Unified Management
With solutions for both small and large businesses, Fortinet provides centralized management, visibility, and automation for security.
- FortiManager:
FortiManager streamlines provisioning, policy management, and real-time monitoring across all Fortinet products by offering centralized management at scale. It improves configuration, provisioning, troubleshooting, and operational efficiency with the help of FortiAI and GenAI.
- FortiGate Cloud:
FortiGate Cloud offers zero-touch deployment, security analytics, and reporting for FortiGate and connected devices, as well as real-time insight into traffic and security threats for enhanced security posture, making management easier for small and mid-sized enterprises.
FortiConverter Service
The FortiConverter Service simplifies migration from legacy firewalls to FortiGate NGFWs, using automated processes and best practices to reduce errors and accelerate network protection with FortiOS technology.
