(prHWY.com) January 8, 2013 - Florida, FL -- Florida, Jan 08, 2013 - If they want to ensure complete content protection that detects all hidden threats, IT managers should select a firewall carefully. Fortinet's firewalls are a particularly good option for businesses that are realizing that typical enterprise level, network security solutions, intrusion detection systems and anti-virus solutions are not appropriate for today's sophisticated attacks.
Fortinet reduces your WLAN risk with a comprehensive, integrated security solution for your wireless and wired networks. Wireless networks are a significant source of risk for most enterprises, due to the lack of robust security technologies and the use of a separate security infrastructure for wireless networks. We integrate all wired and wireless traffic into a single Fortigate 60 security platform, giving you unmatched visibility and control of all network threats.
For the most comprehensive protection, Fortinet also offers the Next Generation Firewall, which uses integrated Intrusion Prevention Systems and Deep Packet Inspection to combat modern-day attacks. And for the most powerful protection, Fortinet's FortiGate Unified Threat Management (UTM) consolidated security platform provides network security protection with the fastest firewall technology available.
A worldwide provider of network security appliances and one of the top three leaders in next generation firewalls, Fortinet recently entered into a partnership that will secure its premier firewall industry ranking for years to come. The company and Bradford Networks have just joined forces to deliver broad bring your own device security solutions to the industry. This alliance will allow Fortinet to deliver "visibility, control and protection from network security threats to corporate-issued and personally owned mobile devices," a press release issued by the company explains.
Couple Fortinet's broad array of security and networking functions, including firewall, with Bradford Networks' comprehensive network access control solution and the result is an unparalleled level of IT security. "The joint offering proactively correlates network traffic and security data with endpoint device and user information to provide total visibility, control and secure network access for corporate-issued and personally owned mobile devices," the Fortinet press release further pointed out.
But IT managers don't have to take the company's word for it. The Internet technology industry is singing praises for Fortinet firewalls as well. The IT consultant newsletter TechRepublic recently featured the security technology in an article titled "Fortinet firewalls, a potent UTM option for consultants." Therein, the author stressed that Fortinet firewalls "are worth a look" as a result of the company's recent ranking "at the top of Gartner's leaders/visionaries quadrant in a recent Magic Quadrant report."
Indeed, Fortinet earned this enviable distinction thanks to the "aggressive price/performance points" of its product line and its "easy migration path as network speeds increase." Gartner further lauded Fortinet and its firewall technology for being a "strong source of threat and vulnerability information."
Some of the areas that set Fortinet firewalls apart from the competition are the choice of integration with WiFi or not and the option of add-on subscription security services like malware, spam, viruses, content filtering and intrusion prevention. Another perk is that Fortinet offers a firewall solution for businesses of all sizes.
