The LAN offers one of the largest attack surfaces in a company’s network, and the number and types of network-connected devices and applications continue to grow exponentially. While end users want fast Ethernet and Wi-Fi connections with a smooth experience regardless of their connection type, IT needs increased security with reduced complexity and low overhead. Fortinet's LAN Edge Solution consolidates network management into our industry leading FortiGate, leading to comprehensive security on the LAN infrastructure and simpler management on a day-to-day basis.

Secure SD-Branch

As branch networks continue to adopt SD-WAN and expand their application use to cloud based tools, there is a desire to consolidate branch network components to avoid an explosion of complexity. Companies need solutions that converge their network security, their WAN and their LAN in order to ensure quality of experience while maintaining security.

Integrate SD-WAN and LAN

Fortinet reduces appliance sprawl at the branch by combining the router, firewall, SD-WAN, and LAN controller into a single appliance.

Security-driven Networking

Fortinet is the only vendor to converge industry-leading security services with native WAN and LAN, allowing integrated management of branch networking services to enable simplicity and save time.

Campus Networks

Networks in campus settings are dynamic and complex, making them challenging to secure and manage. Many management platforms may allow IT staff to see network elements in a single interface, but the core components are not integrated. Without a common framework, the resulting networks are difficult for IT teams to manage and secure.
