FortiOS 5 is an advanced Firewall Security System providing three times “MORE”: security, control and intelligence. Designed to fight the latest threats the firewall has to face, it is an on-device heuristic engine based on the behavior analysis of each network’s client device. The information provided is specific, enabling the identification of systems that are compromised or subject to latent attacks.
The AV cloud-based services that FortiOS provides come with a sandbox for operating systems and with a database for botnet IP search. The AV database signatures are recommended by a superior industry, making the firewall’s latest malware search unbeatable.
Build as a top-class operating system, the 5th generation’s target is to completely secure devices, providing last-minute performance and protection. Its cooperating services are meant to see attacks before they happen and to improve the mitigation and visibility of the latest threats.
The FortiASIC incorporated processors increase the FortiOS 5’s performance, accelerating the hardware’s response for the multi-threat low-latency security. It is known that this firewall’s protection and performance is unmatched.
Furthermore, the Security Firewall reduces the costs with protection and the workloads of the IT staff. While underplaying the challenges of configuration and development and choosing new virtual or physical appliances for FortiGate, the system enforces a unique policy of security in order to match the environment and simplify the entire process.

Thanks to its three “MORE” ingredients, the firewall offers higher security and defeats more threats. The feature analyzing the client’s reputation provides specific information on any device that can contribute to the system’s defeat. It also has more control over any BYOD environment and mobile device, having specific security and accessing profiles based on device type, group, usage or location.
Last but not least, the FortiOS 5 is more intelligent, applying automatic policy acceptance based on role for guests or users following the location point, the data or the profile of the application. Enhanced analysis and reports provide another intelligent feature, allowing the network’s administrator to closely inspect every user, device, application or threat.
Announced along with three other features, FortiAnalyzer 5.0, FortiClient 5.0 and FortiManager 5.0, FortiOS 5 addresses enterprises searching for a high management solution for their network infrastructure and devices, avoiding threats, breaches, dead-points, all without considerable efforts and without a large amount of time spent.
