Says it will help customers extend enterprise security into their public cloud deployments
Fortinet’s flagship award-winning FortiGate security platform is now available on Amazon Web Services (AWS), a division of Amazon.com, Inc., in the AWS Marketplace.
FortiGate-VM is strategically designed to help customers better mitigate potential blind spots by implementing critical network security controls including bi-directional stateful firewalling, intrusion prevention and VPN within their virtual private cloud (VPC) announced the press release.
Last year, the company announced the availability of FortiManager-VM and FortiAnalyzer-VM on AWS, which enable customers to deploy security management and reporting to all FortiGate and FortiGate-VM security technologies running at the edge, in internal networks, at remote offices, within core data centers or deployed in the cloud. And they’re able to do it from a single, centralized management platform. In 2012, the company released FortiWeb-VM for Web application security, which helps secure Web applications and meet compliance requirements.
“We are pleased to see Fortinet continuing to expand its offerings on AWS through AWS Marketplace with their FortiGate platform,” said Brian Matsubara, Head of Global Technology Alliances, Amazon Web Services, Inc. “By bringing their security platform to AWS, Fortinet is providing scalable network security controls to customers around the world.”
