Powered by SPU

• Custom SPU processors deliver the power you need to detect malicious content at multi-Gigabit speeds
• Other security technologies cannot protect against today's wide range of content- and connection-based threats because they rely on general-purpose CPUs, causing a dangerous performance gap
• SPU processors provide the performance needed to block emerging threats, meet rigorous third-party certifications, and ensure that your network security solution does not become a network bottleneck

Network Processor

Fortinet's new, breakthrough SPU NP6 network processor works inline with FortiOS functions delivering:

• Superior firewall performance for IPv4/IPv6, SCTP and multicast traffic with ultra-low latency down to 2 microseconds
• VPN, CAPWAP and IP tunnel acceleration
• Anomaly-based intrusion prevention, checksum offload and packet defragmentation
• Traffic shaping and priority queuing

Content Processor

The SPU CP8 content processor works outside of the direct flow of traffic, providing high-speed cryptography and content inspection services including:

• Signature-based content inspection acceleration
• Encryption and decryption offloading

Deployment:

FortiGate deployed as branch office firewall

Branch Office Firewall

Today's branch office security gateway is no longer just a basic firewall and site-to-site VPN gateway. With the prevalent adoption of cloud based applications - both public and private, there are more associated requirements for both access availability and security. A security gateway will need robust network and high availability capabilities that include intelligent WAN link forwarding and flexible network deployment options. From the security perspective, a branch office firewall should provide abilities to identify users, locations, devices and applications; thereby control access with finer granularity and visibility. With Fortinet solution for enterprises, branch offices can enjoy significant protection with centralized facilities such as File Analysis using the FortiSandbox and FortiAuthenticator for user access management.

Mid Enterprise Edge Firewall

Fortinet's Midrange firewalls are perfect for growing mid enterprises with their agile and high performance network security capabilities. The FortiGate 300D and 500D not only deliver protection exceeding expectations, they are suitable for consolidating other security components. This allows organizations to significantly reduce TCOs and simplifies the network. Unlike other NGFWs (Next Generation Firewalls), the FortiGates are powered by FortiASICs which provide security without compromises performance. They run on the World's most advanced Security operating systems that meet each organizations unique requirements. Advanced features such as integrated endpoint control and token server helps organizations to rapidly deploy enhanced security to their mobile workforce while device based policies aid to implement BYOD securely.

Powerful application control with granular settings

Proven with Industry Validation

3rd party industry certifications, as well as real-world effectiveness and performance tests assure quality and providing you best-of-breed protection.

Ease of Use

FortiOS lowers operational costs and reduces IT staff workload. Single pane of glass management and centralized analysis ensure consistent policy creation and enforcement while minimizing deployment and configuration challenges.

In-depth Visibility & Reporting

Through FortiView, a collection of flexible widget-based views with drill-down capabilities, FortiOS allows administrators to quickly visualize and understand recent network activities and threat situations.

Detailed logs offers deep insights to sessions that passed through the FortiGate while comprehensive reports helps organizations to trend network usage accurately.

Powerful Policy Management

Two types of policy management views - global and section view - are available to suit your preferences. Policy objects can be easily edited, duplicated or moved from the policy table. Robust management features include policy object search, tagging, sorting and filtering.

With FortiManager integration, you have the ability to set up sophisticated policy implementation and provisioning workflows to meet compliance or operational requirements. The FortiManager also offers logging and reporting module that simplified and reduced TCO.

Identity Centric Enforcement

FortiOS supports both local and remote authentication services such as LDAP, Radius and TACACS+ to identify users and apply appropriate access policies and security profiles accordingly. It can simplify identity based implementations and provide a seamless user authorization experience with single sign-on capabilities. FortiOS has strong PKI and certificatebased authentication services while also integrating an internal two factor authentication server for additional security.

To tackle security for today's prevalent use of personal devices, FortiOS offers state-of the art device identification capabilities that empower organization to set up more intelligent security policies.

Granular Application Control

Advanced application control with ability to control discrete functions lets you define and enforce policies for thousands of applications running across networks regardless of port or the protocol used for communication.
