FortiGuard protection is independently validated as highly effective versus today’s advanced threats.

FortiASICs
Fortinet's custom designed ASICs accelerate processing of security and networking functions, to radically boost performance and scalability and provide you with the fastest network security appliance performance available today. This allows you to stay ahead of rapidly growing bandwidth requirements, and prevents your security solution from becoming a choke point in your network.
