FortiAuthenticator builds on the foundations of Fortinet Single Sign-on providing secure identity and role-based access to the Fortinet connected network. Through integration with existing Active Directory or LDAP authentication systems, it enables enterprise user identity based security without impeding the user or generating work for network administrators.

FortiAuthenticator is the gatekeeper of authorization into the Fortinet secured enterprise network identifying users, querying access permissions from third-party systems and communicating this information to FortiGate devices for use in Identity-Based Policies. FortiAuthenticator delivers transparent identification via a wide range of methods:

• Polling of an Active Directory Domain Controller;
• Integration with FortiAuthenticator Single Sign-On Mobility Agent which detects login, IP address changes and logout;
• RADIUS Accounting
• SAML SP/IdP Web SSO

Key FortiAuthenticator Features:

• Seamless secure two-factor/OTP authentication across the organization in conjunction with FortiToken
• RADIUS and LDAP Authentication
• Certificate management for enterprise wireless and VPN deployment
• Guest management for wired and wireless network security
• Single Sign On capabilities for both internal and cloud networks
