FortiGate VM by Fortinet is a virtual next-generation firewall (NGFW) that provides comprehensive network security and threat prevention capabilities in virtualized environments. Running the same FortiOS as hardware appliances, it delivers AI and ML-powered threat intelligence, application control, intrusion prevention, antivirus, URL and DNS filtering, and sandboxing capabilities. The solution enables consistent security policy enforcement across private, public, and telco clouds while providing network segmentation, SD-WAN functionality, and secure VPN connectivity. Operating with various throughput levels based on vCPU allocation, it can be deployed across multiple cloud platforms and virtualized data centers with both bring-your-own-license (BYOL) and on-demand (pay-as-you-go) options.
