Deploying FortiGate CNF Policy Sets

Discussion Points During a Demo - Chapter 6

Key reasons for using a Next Generation Firewall in the cloud:

  • FortiGate CNF delivers frictionless security at any scale for AWS environments. Fortinet manages the service delivery infrastructure, simplifying network security operations and lowering costs.
  • FortiGate CNF combines next-generation firewall (NGFW) capabilities like intrusion prevention system (IPS), web filtering, domain name system (DNS) security, and more—with distinct cloud advantages.
  • Zero Operations Overhead: Focus only on security-policy management and offload service-infrastructure maintenance to Fortinet
  • Elastic Licensing: Pay only for what you use, when you use it
  • Leverage Existing Infrastructure: Use existing Fortinet Fabric Ready Solutions like FortiManager, FortiAnalyzer for single pane of glass management and FortiGuard for threat intelligence.
  • Use FortiGate CNF for Inbound, Outbound, and East-West Traffic Inspection and Protection
  • Let Fortinet manage the complexities of high-resiliency and scalability of the service delivery infrastructure
