FortiOS Everywhere

FortiOS, Fortinet’s Real-Time Quantum-Safe Network Security Operating System

FortiOS is Fortinet’s natively AI-powered and quantum-safe operating system (OS) that powers the Fortinet Security Fabric platform, enabling enforcement of security policies and holistic visibility across the entire attack surface. It provides a unified framework for securing networks across on-premises, cloud, hybrid environments, and the convergence of IT, OT, and IoT.

By converging networking and security functions into a single operating system, organizations can manage network and security more effectively to detect, investigate, and respond to incidents faster. This unified architecture simplifies operations, eliminates security silos, and allows organizations to scale securely without multiple tools or management complexity.

FortiOS also incorporates AI-driven capabilities that enhance threat detection, automate network activity analysis, and deliver more precise remediation guidance. Together, FortiGate firewalls and FortiOS provide intelligent, adaptive protection that reduces complexity, improves operational efficiency, and strengthens security across modern hybrid environments.

FortiConverter Service

The FortiConverter Service provides hassle-free migration to help organizations transition quickly and easily from a wide range of legacy firewalls to FortiGate NGFWs. The service eliminates errors and redundancy by employing best practices with advanced methodologies and automated processes. Organizations can accelerate their network protection with the latest FortiOS technology.

FortiGuard AI-Powered Security Services

FortiGuard AI-Powered Security Services is part of Fortinet’s layered defense and tightly integrated into FortiGate NGFWs and other products. Powered by real-time AI enhanced threat intelligence from FortiGuard Labs, these services protect organizations against modern attack vectors and threats, including zero days and evasive, sophisticated AI-powered attacks.

Network and File Security

Network and file security services protect against network and file-based threats. Consists of intrusion prevention system (IPS) which uses AI/ML models for deep packet/SSL inspection, detecting and blocking malicious content, uncovers hidden command-and-control activity, and applies virtual patches for newly discovered vulnerabilities. Application control improves security compliance and provides real-time visibility into applications and usage including generative AI (GenAI) applications.

Web/DNS Security

Web/DNS security services protect against DNS-based attacks, malicious URLs (including those in emails), and botnet communications. DNS filtering blocks the full spectrum of DNS-based attacks while URL filtering uses a database of millions of URLs to identify and block malicious links. Meanwhile, IP reputation and anti-botnet services guard against botnet activity and DDoS attacks.

SaaS and Data Security

SaaS and data security services cover key security needs for application use and data protection. This service includes data loss/leakage prevention in files, GenAI applications, and images via OCR (optical character recognition). This ensures visibility, management, and protection (blocking exfiltration) of data in motion across networks, clouds, and users. The inline CASB service secures SaaS applications in use, providing broad visibility and granular control over SaaS access, usage, and data.

Zero-Day Threat Prevention

Zero-day threat prevention is achieved through AI-powered inline malware prevention to analyze file content to identify and block unknown and zero-day malware in real time, delivering sub-second protection across all NGFWs. Integrated into FortiGate NGFWs, the service provides comprehensive defense by blocking unknown threats, streamlining incident response, and reducing security overhead.

Attack Surface Visibility and Compliance

The FortiGuard Attack Surface Security Service provides continuous, compliance-ready monitoring of your Fortinet Security Fabric infrastructure. It calculates your overall security posture rating by scoring controls against vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and sub-optimal settings, while offering specific remediation guidelines for devices found out of configuration. It maintains continuous compliance with PCI DSS, CIS Controls, and Fortinet security best practices.

OT Security

With over 2,400 virtual patches, 1,600+ OT applications, and 3,500+ protocol rules, integrated OT security capabilities detect threats targeting OT infrastructure, perform vulnerability correlation, apply virtual patching, and utilize industry-specific protocol decoders for robust defense of OT environments and devices.

Fortinet ASICs: Unrivaled Security, Unprecedented Performance

Powered by the Only Purpose-Built SPU

Traditional firewalls cannot protect against today’s content and connection-based threats because they rely on off-the-shelf general-purpose CPUs, leaving a dangerous security gap. Fortinet’s custom SPUs deliver the power you need to radically increase speed, scale, and efficiency while greatly improving user experience and reducing footprint and power requirements. Fortinet’s SPUs deliver up to 520 Gbps of protected throughput to detect emerging threats and block malicious content while ensuring your network security solution does not become a performance bottleneck.

Next Generation Firewall (NGFW)

• FortiGuard Labs’ suite of AI-Powered Security Services, natively integrated with your NGFW, secures web, content, and devices and protects networks from ransomware, malware, zero days, and sophisticated AI-powered cyberattacks
• Real-time SSL inspection (including TLS 1.3) provides full visibility into users, devices, and applications across the attack surface
• Fortinet’s patented SPU technology provides industry-leading high-performance protection

• Delivers superior quality of experience and effective security posture for hybrid working models, SD-Branch, and cloud-first WAN use cases
• Achieve operational efficiencies at any scale through automation, deep analytics, and self-healing

Universal ZTNA

• Control access to applications no matter where the user is and no matter where the application is hosted for universal application of access policies
• Provide extensive authentications, checks, and enforce policy prior to granting application access every time
• Agent-based access with FortiClient or agentless access via proxy portal for guest or BYOD

Segmentation

• Dynamic segmentation adapts to any network topology to deliver true end-to-end security from the branch to the data center and across multi-cloud environments
• Ultra-scalable, low latency, VXLAN segmentation bridges physical and virtual domains with Layer 4 firewall rules
• Prevents lateral movement across the network with advanced, coordinated protection from FortiGuard Security Services, detects and prevents known, zero-day, and unknown attacks

Trusted Platform Module (TPM)

The FortiGate 400G Series features a dedicated module that hardens physical networking appliances by generating, storing, and authenticating cryptographic keys. Hardware-based security mechanisms protect against malicious software and phishing attacks.

Dual Power Supply

Power supply redundancy is essential in the operation of mission-critical networks. The FortiGate 400G series offers dual internal power supplies for built-in 1+1 redundancy.

Access Layer Security

FortiLink protocol enables you to converge security and network access by integrating the FortiSwitch into the FortiGate as a logical extension of the firewall. These FortiLink-enabled ports can be reconfigured as regular ports as needed.

FortiSentry

FortiSentry is an innovative out-of-band hardware module designed to enhance system integrity by continuously monitoring the FortiOS file system integrity. FortiSentry proactively detects and prevents unauthorized modifications to FortiOS system-level files, reinforcing the overall security posture of the platform.

Unlike traditional in-line software-based solutions, the FortiSentry hardware module is physically isolated from the FortiGate OS but monitors the filesystem to detect potential malicious activity, providing robust protection against targeted attacks.
