Securing Application Access with Fortinet ZTNA
Zero Trust is all about trusting users and devices only after they have been verified. Watch the video to learn how to achieve simple, automatic secure remote access that verifies who and what is on your network. Fortinet ZTNA secures application access no matter where users are located.
Fortinet Universal ZTNA
Watch this demo to see how the elements of the Fortinet Security Fabric work together to enable Zero Trust. This demo shows how the ZTNA application gateway in FortiOS acts as an enforcement point and the ZTNA agent in FortiClient provides the device posture and SSO, all supported by FortiAuthenticator for user identity.
Fortinet brings Universal ZTNA to the Fortinet Security Fabric
Our unique approach, delivering Universal ZTNA as part of our operating system, makes it uniquely scalable and flexible for both cloud-delivered or on-prem deployments, covering users whether they are in the office or remote. Our solution provides for a network of enforcement points, orchestrated by FortiClient EMS, that creates a low-latency architecture where we can apply security inspections on top of the ZTNA controls.
For existing Fortinet customers, ZTNA is even easier to implement, as the ZTNA capabilities are not licensed but are incorporated into the operating system and available for use.
