The widespread adoption of new digital innovations has transformed enterprise networks—adding breakthrough capabilities while at the same time exposing new vulnerabilities. With the rapid proliferation of the mobile workforce, multiple public and private clouds, and Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices, network attack surfaces have dramatically expanded. This makes extended enterprises more difficult to secure. Fortinet next-generation firewall (NGFW) solutions enable broad, integrated, and automated protection against emerging threats and increasing network complexity. It serves as an integral part of the Fortinet Security Fabric—an end-to-end security architecture designed to protect evolving networks.
