Data Center Firewall

High Performance Data Center Firewalls


Fortinet’s FortiGate Network Security Platform provides the backbone of your Data Center Security Solution. Fortinet’s industry-leading, high capacity Firewall technologies deliver exceptional throughput and ultra-low latency, enabling the security, flexibility, scalability and manageability you demand in an edge or core platform. FortiGate appliances and chassis-based devices combine a high-performance Firewall with the flexibility to enable fully integrated personalities (such as VPN, Intrusion Prevention, or Application Control) that provide extensive protection profiles for in-depth defense. Fortinet built the FortiGate line of Network Security Platforms, and the accompanying management and reporting tools, to exceed the performance and security requirements of even the most demanding data center environments.

    Today’s Data Center Security Requirements:
  • High-Speed Interfaces – 40 GbE ports with high density of 10 GbE ports
  • High Capacity Firewall – 100+ Gbps firewall throughput (both IPv4 and IPv6); ultra-low latency, 40M+ concurrent sessions
  • Cloud-Ready – Multi-tenant support, APIs for rapid orchestration, fast integration with 3rd party ecosystems
  • Flexible Firewall Personalities: Deploy at the edge or core data center, with physical and virtual network segmentation, and deploy optional integrated security technologies (such as VPN, IPS, NGFW) supported by continuous updates






FortiGate data center security solutions utilize ASIC-accelerated stateful inspection to ensure your data center security does not become your data center bottleneck. Fortinet’s custom architecture delivers extremely high throughput and exceptionally low latency, meaning you no longer have to sacrifice speed for security The power of purpose-built FortiASIC™ processors allows high-speed protection (up to 520 Gbps of real world traffic) without compromising network performance.

FortiOS, the world’s most powerful security operating system, is the foundation for all Fortinet FortiGate security platforms. It provides more security, intelligence and control to help data centers protect against today’s advanced targeted attacks. Together with superior industry-validated behavioral and signature-based threat detection, FortiOS gives you the option of deploying unbeatable multi-layered protection against today’s sophisticated malware.
