FORTIGATE-310B

The FortiGate-310B raises the bar for mid-size enterprise security devices. Incorporating multiple FortiASIC Network Processors (NP2) for wire-speed firewall/VPN operation, and the FortiASIC content processor (CP) for content inspection acceleration, the FortiGate-310B yields unmatched multi-threat performance across the highest port density of any product in its class. AMC module options offer additional deployment and operational flexibility, expanding the FortiGate-310B's Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000 ports to 14 Gigabit Ethernet ports, or adding an internal HDD for local logging and archiving. The FortiGate-310B's accelerated security throughput, high port density, and ease of management allows medium-sized enterprises to enjoy a degree of internal network security segmentation and policy control previously available only within larger-scale solutions.

Fortinet has allowed us to bring our network security services in-house rather than spending money for an outsourced vendor to manage the network. A unified security solution works best for us, as we have a relatively small technical team. The FortiGate solution helps us to manage our time, skills and on-going costs more effectively. Because of our Fortinet deployment, we are expecting to save $1.5 million in network security costs over the next three years.
