Fortinet’s award-winning FortiGate™ series of ASIC-accelerated multi-threat security systems are the new generation of real time network protection systems. They detect and eliminate the most damaging, content-based threats from email and Web traffic such as viruses, worms, intrusions, inappropriate Web content and more in real time - without degrading network performance.

Maintaining a secure network environment using existing network security technologies is a significant challenge due to a number of reasons:

  • Increasingly sophisticated and rapidly evolving cyber threats evade one or more standalone technologies
  • The costs and complexities associated with managing an increasingly distributed network with no clear perimeter adds strain to already taxed resources
  • The performance and processing power required to provide complete content level protection is difficult to achieve without purpose-built hardwar

Today's standalone network security products generally consist of security software deployed onto PC-based platforms, and provide basic network security functions like firewall and VPN. However these standalone network security products fail to provide the comprehensive security, network deployment flexibility and the performance necessary to combat today's cyber threats.

In order to solve the security problems for businesses and service providers, the Unified Threat Management (UTM) market has emerged. UTM devices incorporate firewall, intrusion prevention and gateway antivirus, at a minimum. Many vendors have attempted to provide UTM capabilities through various implementations on the theme of UTM. Some vendors have re-packaged existing firewall and VPN appliances with antivirus and intrusion detection and/or prevention technologies from other vendors. Others have simply relabeled their existing network security products, which offer limited security capabilities across all three areas. More importantly, the act of simply cobbling together a UTM product that can provide essential security services while maintaining performance ratings that meet the needs of business networks is insufficient and simply does not work. In order to address these challenges, an effective UTM solution must deliver a network security platform comprised of robust and fully integrated security and networking functions. Protection must be provided against next generation application layer threats and offer centralized management from a single console, all without impairing the performance of the network.
