Fortinet has organized a two-day conference for partners in Kolkata to showcase the company’s Security Fabric with its intentionally designed integration beginning with a unified operating system, highly optimized hardware and software processing, unmatched zero-day discovery, and a detection approach that combines behavioural detection, machine learning, and hardware virtualization.
While isolated point products leave gaps in security and limit network visibility, Fabric-based security architecture is designed to communicate between all deployed securities devices in real time, allowing them to dynamically share and correlate threat data and automatically respond to threats occurring anywhere across the distributed network. It ensures comprehensive security protection and automation, without slowing down users who need access to their data, or development teams producing new software features.
This makes the Security Fabric the ideal security solution to facilitate customers’ digital transformation. The Fortinet Security Fabric goes beyond what’s possible with a traditional signature-based approach to threat protection, or with siloed security technologies that vendors have begun to superficially stitch together using an overlay platform approach.
Speaking at the conference, Navin Mehra, Regional Director, West, East and Central India, Fortinet, said, “The Fortinet Security Fabric and the Fabric-Ready Partner program are really resonating with our partners and we have been receiving very positive feedback from both our partners and their customers on a daily basis. They feel that this new integrated technology approach allows partners to really give their customers a better experience. The Security Fabric has truly begun to drive long-needed innovation in network security, and is redefining how partners and customers look at network security.”
Channel partners, extending the functionality and intelligence of the Fortinet Security Fabric vision with an open and cooperative ecosystem of partner solutions can more easily:
· Bundle, sell, and deploy solution sets without the burden of significant costs and resources usually required for validating technology integration when delivering multi-product, multi-vendor solutions to customers.
· Provide customers with solutions that have faster time-to-deployment coupled with reduced operational expenses and technical support costs.
At the conference, partners learned to help customers undergo changes, such as cloud adoption, increased data collection, and IoT adoption and assess how these developments will impact their cybersecurity strategy, and deploy a security architecture to ensure consistent, end-to-end protection.
