DRIVING BUSINESS-ORIENTED GOALS      
Fortinet’s vision of converging security and networking began more than 20 years ago and its innovation in this area provides solutions that leaves the brand years ahead of its competitors. Fortinet continues to gain market share because customers are increasingly recognizing how an integrated platform approach delivers better network performance and platform mesh security architecture.   

Security requires much more computing power to handle the elephant data that flows through networks. Fortinet addresses this with its Security Fabric platform, which runs on a unified operating system for maximum interoperability among the solutions in its broad security and networking portfolio. Fortinet also has the industry’s only security and networking-oriented ASICs that provide the power and performance that today’s networks demand.    

POWERING THE FUTURE WITH INNOVATION         
Fortinet offers a wide range of technologies, including next-generation firewalls, Secure SD-WAN, 5G, and OT security, which can be delivered as hardware, software, cloud, or as a service. All of these solutions run on a single operating system - FortiOS, which improves operational efficiency and provides consistent security no matter where users or applications are located.  

Fortinet continues to gain market share within the cybersecurity industry as more customers recognize how its integrated, single-platform approach to security delivers a lower total cost of ownership and a greater return on investment than competing solutions. SD-WAN and OT are two key technologies that are contributing to its growth and revenues significantly. Fortinet’s goal is to keep growing and achieve number one market share in network firewall, Secure SD-WAN, and the OT security markets over the next couple of years.  

REINFORCING CUSTOMER BELIEF          
Fortinet is the most deployed, most patented, and most validated cybersecurity solution with well over half a million customers who trust the brand not only for solving their challenges today but also for addressing their security needs of tomorrow.   

Fortinet is proud to be named in Gartner Peer insights Customer Choice for SD-WAN. This distinction is based on user reviews of the Fortinet Secure SD-WAN solution which has received the highest reviews of all vendors in the SD-WAN Market as of December 2022, based on 159 reviews with 96% of reviewers willing to recommend Fortinet’s Secure SD-WAN solution.   

CAPITALIZING ON R&D EXPERTISE       
Fortinet holds nearly 3 times more patents than comparable network security vendors, a testament to its dedication to organic innovation that delivers industry-leading cybersecurity and networking solutions. These accolades speak for themselves and are rooted in over 20 years of prioritizing research and development which is the core part of the company’s culture.  

Fortinet is proactively managing its supply chain, redesigning products and qualifying additional suppliers to source multiple components to ensure it can deliver the products customers depend on. Fortinet ships nearly 50% of all next-generation firewalls and this is a testament to not only its supply chain strength, but also its investment in proprietary ASIC technology. Fortinet is also investing to scale threat intelligence and AI/ML.
