Fortinet has been named a Leader in the 2022 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for SD-WAN for the third year in a row, is placed highest in Ability to Execute for the second year in a row and has been consistently recognized for Completeness of Vision. 

So, why does this matter to you and your customers?  

Fortinet was the first to deliver SD-WAN integrated with Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) enforcement to better secure and connect hybrid work. And by delivering the industry’s only SD-WAN ASIC, Fortinet enables organizations to achieve massive scale and high performance without security compromises—all controlled using a single management system.  

You can think of Fortinet SD-WAN as a way to future-proof your customers’ investments. Fortinet is the only vendor to have been ranked number one in three of the five use cases in the companion Gartner Critical Capability report for the past two years for Remote Worker, Security-Sensitive WAN and WAN for Small Branches. 

Enabling the convergence of SD-WAN and AI-powered security

Using a single, consistent operating system—FortiOS—combined with integrated advanced security services—such as deep SSL packet inspection, DNS/URL/Video filtering, AV, in-line sandbox, IPS and IoT/OT security services—Fortinet delivers security and optimized user and network experience. And with the industry’s only SD-WAN ASIC, a custom processor designed specifically to offload critical SD-WAN functions, organizations can achieve all this while ensuring high performance. 

With its built-in universal ZTNA enforcement functionality—at no additional cost—organizations can provide consistent quality of experience for users moving between the office and off-premises locations. Enforcing one policy consistently across all edges protects the entire digital attack surface while eliminating device sprawl. 

Simplify your remote offices with Secure SD-Branch

Organizations across retail, financial services, law firms and other market segments are looking to simplify their infrastructure by building a software-defined branch. Fortinet’s Secure SD-Branch solution extends the features of Fortinet Secure SD-WAN across the entire branch network to deliver secure and manageable remote branch.
