FortiGate can be deployed as an appliance or a virtual machine. There are various models that will integrate seamlessly into your environment. It includes Unified Threat Management (UTM) and Secure SD-WAN , deep inspection of thousands of applications, granular policy settings, protection against malware , and uses FortiGuard Labs AI to prevent known and unknown attacks, SSL VPN , and much more. You can analyze firewall logs in a separate system—the FortiAnalyser appliance or Microsoft Azure Sentinel —or use Forticloud to store your logs for free for up to 7 days or on a subscription basis for up to one year.
