What performance advantages do Fortinet data center firewalls offer?
Fortinet data center firewalls leverage custom ASIC technology, which allows them to achieve high performance tailored for today's data centers. They provide 5X the industry average for firewall throughput and 8X for SSL inspection throughput. This means they can process and analyze data quickly, ensuring that encrypted data and streaming video can be inspected without slowing down network performance.
How does Fortinet ensure advanced threat protection?
Fortinet employs AI and machine learning through its FortiGuard services to enhance threat detection and response. This technology continuously assesses risks and can respond to both known and unknown threats across various vectors. The integration of FortiGate firewalls into the Fortinet Security Fabric ensures coordinated detection and enforcement, allowing for rapid adjustments to security postures as new threats emerge.
What sustainability benefits do Fortinet firewalls provide?
Fortinet data center firewalls are designed to be energy-efficient, consuming 84% fewer watts per Gbps of throughput compared to competitors. This efficiency not only helps organizations reduce their carbon footprint but also lowers the total cost of ownership. The firewalls are reported to be 6.7 times more energy-efficient in terms of BTU/h per Gbps, making them a sustainable choice for modern data centers.
