Your firewall is the front door to your network. If it’s misconfigured or running outdated firmware, you’re leaving that door unlocked. Most small business firewalls we encounter are installed once, configured enough to pass traffic, and never touched again.

Fortinet’s FortiGate gives businesses enterprise-grade network security — next-gen firewall, intrusion prevention, web filtering, VPN, SD-WAN, and unified threat management — in appliances sized for any business.

Fortinet Solutions We Deploy

  • FortiGate Next-Gen Firewalls: Deep packet inspection, application control, IPS, and advanced threat protection. Models from small office (40F/60F) to enterprise campus (600F+).
  • SD-WAN: Intelligent traffic routing across multiple internet connections — built into every FortiGate at no extra cost.
  • Secure VPN: Site-to-site and SSL/IPsec remote access VPN integrated into the FortiGate.
  • Web Filtering: Category and URL-based filtering that blocks malicious sites and enforces acceptable use.
  • FortiSwitch & FortiAP: Switches and wireless APs managed directly from FortiGate — one management plane.
  • Fortinet Endpoint: FortiClient endpoint protection integrated with FortiGate for coordinated threat response.
FROM THE FIELD

A multi-location retail business was running consumer-grade routers at five stores with a 2017 firewall at the main office. No segmentation between POS and employee Wi-Fi, no IPS, no web filtering, and poorly secured VPN. We deployed FortiGate at all six locations with SD-WAN, POS network segmentation for PCI compliance, modern encrypted site-to-site VPN, and FortiCloud centralized management. Enterprise-grade network security in two weeks.

Why Fortinet

Performance per dollar: Custom ASIC chips deliver throughput competitors match only at 3–5x the price.

Unified platform: Firewall, IPS, web filtering, antimalware, VPN, SD-WAN, and application control on one appliance, one interface.

SD-WAN included: Every FortiGate includes SD-WAN at no additional cost — for businesses with multiple connections or locations.

GREAT FIT IF YOU…
  • Need a real firewall to replace consumer routers
  • Multiple locations needing secure connectivity
  • PCI compliance requires segmentation and IPS
  • Want one platform for firewall, VPN, filtering, and wireless
  • Need properly secured remote worker VPN
NOT THE BEST FIT IF YOU…
  • Looking for the absolute cheapest option
  • Have an existing platform with years of investment — though we can manage some

Frequently Asked Questions

What size FortiGate?
Depends on bandwidth, users, and features enabled. 20-person office: 60F or 80F. Heavier environments: 100F+. We size properly during assessment.
How does SD-WAN work?
Routes traffic across multiple internet connections based on application type and link quality. Video gets the best link. Backup uses secondary. Automatic failover, no downtime.
Can it replace our VPN?
Yes. Site-to-site and remote access VPN built into FortiGate. We migrate existing configs during deployment.
Ongoing management needed?
Yes — firmware, security policies, threat feeds, certificates. We manage this as part of our service.
Can you manage our existing Fortinet?
Yes. We take over configuration, monitoring, and maintenance of existing FortiGate deployments.
