Description
Fortigate901G Next-Generation Firewall Ghana
The Fortigate901G Ghana Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) leverages advanced AI-powered security and machine learning algorithms to offer comprehensive threat protection at any scale. It empowers organizations with enhanced network visibility, enabling real-time identification and monitoring of applications, users, and devices—stopping potential threats before they materialize.
Designed with an extensive suite of AI/ML-driven security features, the Fortigate901G integrates seamlessly into a unified security fabric. This platform delivers broad, deep, and automated security capabilities across the entire network infrastructure. From core to edge, the solution offers multi-layered protection, encompassing web filtering, content inspection, and endpoint security. It also employs network segmentation and secure SD-WAN capabilities to streamline hybrid IT environments, lowering complexity while mitigating risks associated with distributed networks.
The built-in Universal ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access) framework dynamically enforces access policies by continuously verifying users before granting access to applications. This proactive control minimizes lateral movement and reduces the attack surface by ensuring that only authorized users access sensitive resources. The NGFW also features ultra-fast threat detection mechanisms and deep SSL/TLS inspection, enabling advanced security at the edge without compromising network performance. With these capabilities, the Fortigate901G Ghana provides a scalable, high-performance solution for modern enterprises seeking resilient, intelligent, and automated cybersecurity.
Hardware Features
Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
The Fortigate901G Ghana 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.
Access Layer Security
FortiLink protocol enables you to converge security and the network access by integrating the FortiSwitch into the FortiGate as a logical extension of the NGFW. These FortiLink enabled ports can be reconfigured as regular ports as needed.
