Fast Track Workshop 1:  Constructing a Secure SD-WAN Architecture

As organizations transition to a digital business model, their network topologies are significantly impacted. The adoption of cloud services, thevirtualization of the traditional network, and an increasingly mobile workforce accessing applications in the cloud are accelerating advancements in wide area networking technologies.


The traditional WAN is struggling to keep up because it relies on a static infrastructure of devices that simply can’t accommodate shifting and often temporary resource allocation and workloads. In this workshop, participants learn how Secure SD-WANsolves these problems.

Participants who attend this workshop will learn how to:

  • Apply software-defined networking (SDN) to wide area networks in an enterprise environment
  • Implement application control and traffic shaping over SD-WAN
  • Use FortiManager to enable unified policy across thousands of enterprise branches
  • Use SD-WAN Orchestrator to deploy devices across regions simply and easily
  • Configure virtualized products supporting WAN aggregation while gaining hand-on experience

 

Fast Track Workshop 2:  Getting Started with the FortiGate Firewall

In this workshop, participants learn the basics of how to install a FortiGate and use it to protect a network.

FortiGate enables security-driven networking and consolidates industry-leading security capabilities, such as SSL inspection, antivirus, web filtering, and application control. By doing this, FortiGate meets the performance needs of highly scalable, hybrid IT architectures, enabling organizations to reduce complexity and manage security risks.


FortiGate simplifies security complexity and provides visibility into applications, users, and networks. FortiGate utilizes purpose-built security processing units (SPUs) and threat intelligence services from FortiGuard Labs to deliver top-rated security and high performance threat protection.

Participants who attend this workshop will learn how to:

  • Install a FortiGate device in a network
  • Configure basic routing
  • Create security policies
  • Apply security scanning
  • Configure local user authentication
  • Use the CLI
  • Configure the Fortinet Security Fabric

 

Fast Track Workshop 3:  Simplify SOC Operations for the Security Fabric with FortiAnalyzer

Security teams around the world are struggling with the complexity of operations. Common issues include: too many consoles, too many alerts, manual and slow response, and a shortage of cybersecurity personnel.

FortiAnalyzer, a core part of the Security Fabric, enables teams to simplify security operations, enabling enterprises at any stage of SOC maturity to smoothly integrate security visibility and automation.

In this workshop, participants gain hands-on experience and see how the solution provides organizations with advanced logging and
reporting, Security Fabric analytics, and Security Fabric automation.

Participants who attend this workshop will learn how to:

  • Understand the benefits of using FortiAnalyzer to simplify SOC operations
  • Use playbooks to automate workflows and reduce the workload on the security team
  • Use FortiGate event handlers to automate actions via automation stitches
  • Work with analytics logs and generate custom reports
