SOLUTIONS BY CUSTOMER
Fortinet's comprehensive portfolio of security appliances and complementary products help secure businesses of every size and type, protecting against a wide range of threats with technologies that include firewall, intrusion prevention (IPS), VPN, traffic shaping, antivirus, antispyware, antispam, web filtering, application control (e.g., IM and P2P) and database protection.

Enterprise
Fortinet® enterprise protection extends from the core network or data center all the way out to mobile devices and remote/branch offices. Customers can leverage Fortinet's FortiGate® systems to detect, block, log, and effectively eliminate a variety of threats, including inappropriate Web content, email spam, and spyware, that can compromise critical customer information, reduce employee productivity, and expose the company to legal and criminal liability. With all security functions available on every FortiGate platform, Fortinet protection is easily added to existing deployments and lets the enterprise expand functionality at its own pace without investing in additional hardware or software. Unlimited user licensing and complementary management, analysis, and reporting systems dramatically reduce total cost of ownership. The FortiMail™ family of secure email appliances provides enterprises with dedicated email security that improves protection against sophisticated email threats, reduces the impact of spam on mail system and network resources, and facilitates regulatory compliance. Fortinet database security and compliance products offer centrally-managed, enterprise-scale, database hardening; fast, comprehensive policy compliance; and vulnerability assessment for improved data security across the enterprise.

Telecommunications Carriers
Fortinet provides a complete security solution suite for carriers, featuring network and application oriented security for specific protection requirements such as WAP/WSP, Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS), and IMS SIP. Available for 2.5G and 3G wireless networks, NGN wireline networks, and emerging IMS networks, Fortinet's AdvancedTCA™ based FortiGate®-5000 series of security platforms leverages FortiOS™ Carrier software to offer features such as a GTP firewall, secure MMS with scanning of all interfaces, and an SIP/IMS signaling firewall. These enable carriers to assure the security, privacy, and quality of service (QoS) that are critical to profitability, competitive advantage, and service delivery success. The FortiGate®-5000 platforms support multi-gigabit operation, and offer extreme scalability and flexibility, backed by complementary management, analysis, and reporting appliances that give carriers the ability to manage the largest networks from a central point and keep on top of evolving security needs.

Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs)
Fortinet's comprehensive set of products and services, which include FortiGate® multi-threat security systems, enable Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) to provide combined security services to customers in an efficient and cost-effective manner. The multiple security applications available on each FortiGate model enable quick and flexible deployment to deliver immediate value to customers. FortiMail secure email appliances can be used to provide a managed email security service that improves protection against sophisticated email threats, reduces the impact of spam on mail system and network resources, and facilitates regulatory compliance. The complementary FortiManager™ appliances deliver centralized management that enables MSSPs to lower their maintenance and provisioning overhead, which reduces that service implementation costs and increases profits. When combined with FortiAnalyzer™ logging and reporting appliances, FortiManager appliances provide in-depth reporting, logging and monitoring capabilities that help MSSPs differentiate themselves and upsell customers based on actual, evolving security conditions.
Small-to-Medium Business (SMB)

With Fortinet®, small-to-medium businesses (SMBs) customers can enjoy a level of security formerly available only to organizations with higher budgets and larger staff. Fortinet's FortiGate® multi-threat security appliances leverage specialized FortiASIC™ processors purpose-built for content and network processing to deliver the economy and scalability needed by these smaller organizations. They offer complete threat protection within a single solution: firewall, intrusion prevention system (IPS), VPN, traffic shaping, antivirus, antispyware, antispam, web filtering, and application control (e.g., IM and P2P). This integration eliminates redundant processing for higher performance at a lower cost and offers a single point of security management for lower operational costs, with an intuitive web-based user interface that simplifies deployment and provides immediate value.
