Overview

Powered by comprehensive threat intelligence from FortiGuard Labs and 20+ years of cybersecurity experience, Fortinet provides integrated security at any stage of your Azure adoption. Fortinet simplifies security management, ensures full visibility, and provides broad protection across your Azure environments, with 100+ Microsoft integrations.

Fortinet Security Fabric for Microsoft Azure

While Azure secures the infrastructure, you are responsible for protecting everything you put in it. The Fortinet Security Fabric provides Azure and Office 365 users with broad protection. Its native integration and automated management enable consistent enforcement and visibility across multi-cloud infrastructure. The Fabric offers deep multi-layer security protection and operational benefits for securing web applications, email applications, stopping zero-day threats, and managing global cybersecurity infrastructures from the cloud.

Hybrid Mesh Firewall for Secure Migration

Extend your network security into the cloud with a hybrid mesh firewall approach. FortiGate NGFWs and FortiManager unify network management and security policies for all firewall deployments—on-premises or in the cloud. This consistency decreases the risk of a firewall breach across all firewall deployments. Fortinet uses artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and threat intelligence to detect and block advanced threats. It also simplifies network security with central management and task automation.
