The FortiGate Next-Generation Firewall combines a comprehensive suite of powerful security tools into a high-performance virtual device. FortiGate NGFWs can be combined with other Fortinet solutions to form a unified security fabric to secure your network, users, data and applications across clouds and enterprises.

The FortiGate NGFW includes application aware network security, secure SD-WAN, virus protection, IPS, Web filtering and VPN along with advanced features such as an extreme threat database, vulnerability management and flow-based inspection work in concert to identify and mitigate the latest complex security threats. The security-hardened FortiOS operating system is purpose-built for inspection and identification of malware.

Designed to ensure easy, consistent deployment for the most efficient systems and applications uptime with minimal disruption using Azure LB and two virtual machines of FortiGate. With redundancy built in within the solution, it increases reliability and system availability.
