綜覽
The unification of firewall security and management is accomplished with hybrid mesh firewalls (HMF). This approach offers significant value by combining the benefits of multiple firewall architectures.
Unify Firewall Management and Enforcement
Unified management streamlines administration and provides enhanced security, enabling centralized control and monitoring across the entire network. Further, it optimizes security policies, simplifies deployment, improves scalability, and enhances threat visibility—ultimately bolstering network protection while reducing complexity and operational overhead.
Hybrid Mesh Firewall: The Next Evolution
The Fortinet hybrid mesh firewall approach addresses the challenges of complex network and security infrastructure by revolutionizing your defense strategy. By unifying all firewall deployments across environments, you gain operational efficiency, stronger security (with consistent policies), and comprehensive visibility. With centralized and unified management, along with AI-powered services, you can ensure consistent, real-time protection against even the newest and most sophisticated threats across your entire organization.
Challenge: Inefficient Network and Security Operations
Architectural Complexity
Disparate security and networking solutions leave security gaps and are hard to efficiently manage
User and Applications Are Everywhere
Users connect to applications from the data center, to multi-cloud, to the edge
Deployment Complexity
There are too many different tools, solutions, and platforms used for deployment and onboarding
Security Misconfigurations
Misconfiguration and inconsistent security policies help attacks succeed
Expanded Attack Surface
Digital innovation (including WFA and cloud) has expanded the attack surface and cyber exposure
Evolving and Evasive Attacks
Increasingly sophisticated multi-stage campaigns mimicking legitimate activities evade security

Unify Firewall Management
The convergence of security and networking closes security gaps and unifies management, ensuring consistent security policies across all firewall deployments.
Data Center Firewalls
Safeguard critical infrastructure and sensitive data while establishing a solid defense perimeter to prevent unauthorized access and protect against malicious attacks. Data center firewalls inspect and filter north/south and east/west network traffic, detecting and stopping threats to enhance the overall security posture, while offering scalability and performance optimizations to ensure uninterrupted availability for data-intensive applications and services.
Distributed Edge Firewalls
Provide security at network edges by deploying firewalls closer to endpoints for immediate threat protection, minimizing potential damage by preventing lateral movement of threats and securing remote sites. The distributed nature enhances network performance, reduces latency, and optimizes traffic routing. Enforcing consistent security policies across multiple locations improves overall network resilience.
Cloud Firewalls
Protect cloud-based infrastructure and applications with a scalable and centralized security solution that safeguards against external threats and unauthorized access. A cloud-native design seamlessly integrates with cloud platforms for dynamic scaling and agility to enforce security policies, monitor traffic, and detect anomalies. Bolster overall security posture while being flexibile and cost-effective.
