Robuste Security-Lösungen

Security-Kontrollen über Endpoint-, Netzwerk- und Cloud Computing-Umgebungen hinweg
SD-WAN-Technologie von Fortinet arbeitet nahtlos mit dem "Symantec Web Security Service" zusammen

Symantec und Fortinet kooperieren, um Unternehmen umfassende und robuste Security-Lösungen zur Verfügung zu stellen. Als erster Schritt wird die Fortinet Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFW) in den Cloud-basierten Symantec Web Security Service (WSS) integriert.

Darüber hinaus ist geplant, die Symantec Endpoint Protection Lösung in die Fortinet Security Fabric-Plattform zu integrieren. Der Vorteil für Unternehmen: Sie erhalten umfangreiche Security-Kontrollen über Endpoint-, Netzwerk- und Cloud-Umgebungen hinweg. Auf dieser Basis lässt sich der Zero Trust Security-Ansatz realisieren. Mit Echtzeit-Informationen werden die Unternehmen über Bedrohungen informiert und automatisierte Gegenmaßnahmen bei Angriffen mit Exploits und moderner Malware eingeleitet.

Damit Kunden sicher sein können, dass die SD-WAN-Technologie von Fortinet nahtlos mit dem Symantec Web Security Service zusammenarbeitet, zertifiziert Symantec die Technologien im Rahmen ihres Technology Integration Partner Program (TIPP). Beide Anbieter planen darüber hinaus gemeinsame Go-to-Market-Aktivitäten.

Market Leaders Symantec and Fortinet Partner to Deliver the Most Robust and Comprehensive Cloud Security Service
Partnership delivers essential security controls across endpoint, network, and cloud environments

Symantec Corp and Fortinet announced an expansive partnership agreement to provide customers with the industry’s most comprehensive and robust security solutions. Fortinet’s industry-leading Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) capabilities are planned to be integrated into Symantec’s cloud-delivered Web Security Service (WSS). Additionally, Symantec’s industry-leading endpoint protection solutions are also planned to be integrated into the Fortinet Security Fabric platform. The technology partnership provides essential security controls across endpoint, network, and cloud environments that are critical to enforcing the Zero Trust security framework.

WSS, a leader in Secure Web Gateways, is a simple-to-use, cloud-delivered network security service that provides protection against advanced threats, provides access control, and safeguards critical business information for secure and compliant cloud application and web use. The integration of Fortinet’s industry-leading FortiGate Next-Generation Firewall with Symantec’s WSS will result in the most comprehensive set of cloud-delivered threat prevention capabilities in a single service offering on the market today.

“As the first step in this technology partnership, we plan to deliver best-of-breed security through the combination of enterprise-class advanced firewall controls to Symantec’s industry-leading network security service,” said Art Gilliland, EVP and GM Enterprise Products, Symantec. “Through this partnership, we hope to provide joint customers the power of Symantec’s Integrated Cyber Defense Platform bolstered by Fortinet’s leading NGFW in an integrated solution that’s easy to use and deploy.”

Additionally, Symantec’s industry-leading endpoint protection solution is planned to be integrated into the Fortinet Security Fabric platform, providing customers with real-time, actionable threat intelligence and automated response for exploit-driven attacks and advanced malware. Interoperability between Fortinet’s SD-WAN technology will also be certified to work with Symantec’s Web Security Service through Symantec’s Technology Integration Partner Program (TIPP). As part of the collaboration, both companies plan to engage in joint go-to-market activities.

“With today’s announcement, two industry leaders are coming together to provide enterprise-class capabilities across cloud, network, and endpoint security,” said John Maddison, SVP of products and solutions, Fortinet. “Upon completion of the integration, Symantec cloud web gateway customers will be able to benefit from Fortinet’s enterprise-class advanced firewall controls, and for the first time ever, Fortinet customers will be able to purchase the industry-leading FortiGate Next-Generation Firewall via FWaaS. With the addition of Symantec as a Fortinet Fabric-Ready Partner, Symantec’s endpoint security solution will be validated to seamlessly integrate with the Fortinet Security Fabric platform to provide more consistent and effective protection for joint customers.”
