Fortinet delivers SASE and Zero Trust network access capabilities with updates to FortiOS

Fortinet, a global provider of integrated and automated cybersecurity solutions, has announced version 7.0 of FortiOS, its flagship operating system.

With over 300 new features, FortiOS 7.0 enhances the Fortinet Security Fabric and Fortinet’s ability to deliver consistent security for all networks, endpoints and clouds.

John Maddison, EVP, Products and CMO at Fortinet, said: “Most vendors are focused on a single slice of security, but the reality is it’s impossible to keep up with the complexity of today’s threat landscape with that approach. New innovations in FortiOS 7.0 continue Fortinet’s commitment to delivering a cybersecurity platform that expands across the entire digital attack surface to enable security that is broad, integrated and automated to protect devices, data and applications.”

According to Fortinet, the explosion of network edges – across data centre, WAN, LAN, LTE, off-net, compute, operational technology, CASB, SASE, Internet and most recently the home Edge – has expanded and splintered the perimeter across the entire infrastructure. Security that can keep pace with changes to the network and today’s performance requirements while delivering holistic visibility, data, analysis, detection, and timely coordinated response against cyberattacks requires an integrated platform approach.
