2. SD-Branch: LAN Edge Wired and Wireless (Secure Networking)

Tuesday, November 7th | 9am - 4pm | Reikart House, 5000 Main Street, Amherst, NY, 14226

Session 1: Proactive Advanced Endpoint Protection, Visibility, and Control for Critical Assets 

Description: Endpoints are frequently the target of initial compromise or attacks. One recent study found that 30% of breaches involved malware being installed on endpoints. Fortinet endpoint solutions strengthen endpoint security through integrated visibility, control, and proactive defense.

FortiClient can discover, monitor, and assess endpoint risks, so you can ensure endpoint compliance, mitigate risks, and reduce exposure. Its tight integration with the Fortinet Security Fabric enables policy-based automation to contain threats and control outbreaks. FortiClient also provides secure remote access with ZTNA, built-in VPN, single sign-on, and two-factor authentication for added security.

FortiEDR delivers advanced, real-time threat protection for endpoints both pre- and post-infection. It proactively reduces the attack surface, prevents malware infection, detects and defuses potential threats in real time, and can automate response and remediation procedures with customizable playbooks.

Participants who attend this workshop will learn how to:

• Integrate FortiClient EMS into the Security Fabric
• Deploy the custom FortiClient installer
• Configure FortiClient EMS to apply ZTNA tags to endpoints that FortiGate can use to dynamically control access to subnets and corporate assets
• Deploy FortiEDR collector
• Apply FortiEDR virtual patching to workstation
• Configuring FortiEDR pre- and post-execution scanning policies
• Filter, sort, and view events in FortiEDR
• Perform forensic analysis in FortiEDR

Session 2: SD-Branch: LAN Edge Wired and Wireless (Secure Networking)

PM Session SD-Branch: LAN Edge Wired and Wireless (Secure Networking)

Description: Enterprise networking and security teams are struggling with evolving their WAN and branch office IT architecture to support digital transformation. A typical branch office consists of multiple point products, creating both security and complexity challenges. IT teams are looking to consolidate these point products to increase agility and save money, while improving the security and visibility of network access at the branch office.

Participants who attend this workshop will learn how to:

• Create a FortiLink interface
• Authorize FortiSwitch and FortiAP devices
• Create VLANs and policies
• Create SSIDs
• Configure radio frequency (RF) parameters
• Assign firewall policies to FortiGate interfaces
