Security & resilience
Fortinet
Network security from the branch to remote access
Suitable for assessing branch connectivity and perimeter controls together rather than treating networking and security as separate projects. My Global Solutions Group starts with your requirements, then scopes the platform, integrations and operational responsibilities around them.

VPN, SD-WAN and access offerings support distributed networks and remote users.
Central management

Why we recommend considering it
Suitable for assessing branch connectivity and perimeter controls together rather than treating networking and security as separate projects.
A practical business workflow
Standardise branch firewalls, separate sensitive networks and introduce managed policy changes across multiple locations.
Our recommendation depends on fit, not a promise that one vendor is right for every business. Existing contracts, internal skills and exit requirements are part of the assessment.
Implementation with a clear handover
- 1. Assess the fit. Map your workloads, users, integrations, budget and obligations.
- 2. Define the scope. Agree licences, account ownership, access controls and responsibilities.
- 3. Configure and test. Validate the workflow, failure cases and migration or rollback plan.
- 4. Document and operate. Hand over configuration, training and agreed support arrangements.
Costs, privacy & responsible adoption
Hardware capacity, subscriptions and inspection settings affect performance and cost. Plan renewals, firmware updates and supported remote-access configurations.
Check the vendor’s current product documentation, contractual terms and pricing before committing. Confirm which data is processed, who can access it and how it can be exported. Product names do not establish compliance or a particular partner certification.
