Powered by SPU

• Fortinet’s custom SPU processors deliver the power you need to detect malicious content at multi-Gigabit speeds
• Other security technologies cannot protect against today’s wide range of content- and connectionbased threats because they rely on general-purpose CPUs, causing a dangerous performance gap
• SPU processors provide the performance needed to block emerging threats, meet rigorous third-party certifications, and ensure that your network security solution does not become a network bottleneck

Network Processor

Fortinet’s new, breakthrough SPU NP7 network processor works inline with FortiOS functions delivering:

• Superior firewall performance for IPv4/IPv6, SCTP, and multicast traffic with ultra-low latency
• VPN, CAPWAP, and IP tunnel acceleration
• Anomaly-based intrusion prevention, checksum offload, and packet defragmentation
• Traffic shaping and priority queuing

Content Processor

Fortinet’s ninth generation custom SPU CP9 content processor works outside of the direct flow of traffic and accelerates the inspection.
