Customers are Fortinet’s most crucial audience, and they continue to value the convergence of networking and security. Fortinet has outperformed rivals and increased market share in the enterprise wired and wireless segments. Still, the most crucial sign of success is the daily satisfaction of individuals who use our technology. With a total customer rating of 4.9 out of 5 stars based on 101 reviews as of March 2023, Fortinet has been named a 2023 Gartner Peer InsightsTM Customers’ Choice for Enterprise Wired and Wireless Local Area Network (LAN) Infrastructure.
Deploying business-critical technologies, including wired and wireless local area networks (LAN), wide area networks (WAN), and security infrastructure, sometimes necessitates using various products, different operating systems, and workarounds to get these technologies to cooperate. But because crucial network components are oblivious to the activities and threats others can see, this point product approach has made enterprises less secure. This occurs as more companies start to consider cybersecurity concerns to be a problem for their operations.
Fortinet developed a platform based on the FortiOS operating system to overcome this difficulty, which unifies networking and security. Wired and wireless LAN, SD-WAN (software-defined vast area network), 5G gateways, and network access controls (NAC) are just a few examples of contemporary networking features that are combined with industry-leading next-generation firewall (NGFW) and secure access service edge (SASE) technology. Through a centralized management console called FortiManager, IT teams can design, implement, and optimize network traffic and security across the whole company environment, from endpoints to the cloud. In doing so, Fortinet offers a corporate networking strategy and a straightforward, intelligent security solution.
Convergence says don’t Choose Between “Best of Breed” and “Platform” Approaches.
FortiOS’s strength lies in its capacity to combine networking and security tasks. This reduces the business risk by complex point product designs and poorly integrated security without compromising best-in-class technologies.
With a wide range of hardware to fulfill the need, Fortinet’s secure, scalable LAN architecture is equally at home in branch offices, campuses, data centers, and teleworker locations. We eliminate security overlays by incorporating enterprise networking capabilities into our FortiGate NGFW using the FortiLink protocol. So, security is automatically expanded to Ethernet ports, wireless LANs, NAC with role-based access and management, and secure onboarding for Internet of Things (IoT) devices.
Enterprise networking and security are only combined in this way by Fortinet. Fortinet’s wired and wireless LAN products provide businesses with a feature-rich solution with all necessary capabilities built-in without extra licensing. In addition to lowering expenses and increasing performance, this also minimizes business risk.
Tools powered by machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) further simplify day-to-day management, easing the burden on network administrators and enabling them to take a proactive rather than a reactive approach. Our single-platform strategy lessens the likelihood of misconfiguration, lightens the workload of the workforce daily, and improves network administration and security by utilizing AI-based insights.
