Fortinet Secure SD-WAN Solution for MSSPs and MSPs
The Fortinet Secure SD-WAN solution is designed to empower Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) and Managed Service Providers (MSPs) to deliver secure, fast, scalable, and flexible SD-WAN services both on-premises and in the cloud. By integrating proven threat protection into FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls, Fortinet ensures that its solution meets the highest security standards, essential for enterprises of all sizes, including those focusing on hybrid work environments. Additionally, this solution establishes the necessary groundwork for an effortless transition into Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), and Software-Defined Branch (SD-Branch) architectures.
Supporting Revenue Growth and Competitiveness
MSSPs and MSPs can enhance their revenue streams, simplify operational tasks, and gain centralized visibility and management over their clients' entire WAN infrastructures with the Fortinet Secure SD-WAN solution. By offering a broad ecosystem of technology partners and extending support through existing APIs, service providers can expand their service portfolio to include a wide range of use cases. This flexibility enables MSSPs and MSPs to meet diverse customer requirements, boost competitiveness, and drive growth in the increasingly competitive managed services market.
Scalability and Multi-tenancy Features
Fortinet's solutions are inherently multi-tenant, allowing MSPs and MSSPs to efficiently isolate and manage multiple customer networks from a singular administrative console. Whether deployed in physical, virtual, or cloud form factors, FortiGate devices provide robust multi-tenancy capabilities at both the data plane and management plane levels. Consequently, service providers can deliver centralized management services for their Network Operations Centers (NOCs) and Security Operations Centers (SOCs), with granular Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) functionality ensuring comprehensive control over network operations.
Key Advantages of Fortinet Secure SD-WAN
Fortinet distinguishes itself by offering a unified platform that converges multiple functionalities into a single Operating System (OS). By incorporating SD-WAN, Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW), advanced routing, WAN optimization, and Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) proxy capabilities in a single solution, Fortinet reduces complexity and enhances operational efficiency for service providers. The solution leverages a custom-built SD-WAN ASIC, delivering unparalleled bandwidth and security performance, crucial for ensuring reliable and secure service delivery across networks of varying sizes and complexities.
