Today's networks are highly complex environments with borders that are constantly changing, and the volume of attacks puts further pressure on the IT and security teams to protect their organizations. In response to this highly complex environment, firewalls have become robust, multifunctional devices that counter an array of threats to your network. As security architects consider how to provide comprehensive threat protection for their enterprises, including intrusion prevention, web filtering, anti-malware, and application controls, security architects face a major complexity hurdle managing these point products with no integration and lack of visibility.

In this workshop, participants learn how Fortinet's unified operating system streamlines network security across multiple use cases. FortiGate integrates various security products through NGFW features, using specialized processors (SPUs) and FortiGuard Labs threat intelligence for high-performance protection, including secure, automated visibility into cloud applications and IoT devices. The Fortinet Security Fabric offers centralized management and a comprehensive view of the network, automatically mapping the entire topology and defending against known and unknown threats through automated responses.
