FortiAnalyzer Family

To meet the growing demand for Web-enabled applications and new IP-based services, such as multimedia messaging, voice over IP (VoIP), and video on demand (VOD), Enterprise networks are rapidly expanding and dramatically growing in complexity. As a result, monitoring and enforcing acceptable use policies, identifying and blocking new blended security threats, and complying with emerging governmental regulations requires sophisticated logging and reporting capabilities. Both real-time and historical views of network usage and security information are essential for discovering and addressing vulnerabilities across dispersed networks and user groups. The ability to capture network event, usage and content information for forensic purposes, and to comply with governmental regulations regarding privacy and disclosure of security breaches, is absolutely critical. Network and security administrators need a comprehensive set of logging and reporting tools that provide the knowledge required to implement a complete multi-layered security solution.

The FortiAnalyzer™ family of real-time network logging, analyzing and reporting systems are a series of dedicated network hardware appliances that securely aggregate log data from Fortinet devices and third party devices. A full range of log records including traffic, event, virus, attack, Web content and email data may be archived, filtered and mined for compliance or historical analysis purposes. A comprehensive suite of standard reports are built-in, as well as the flexibility to customize unique reports. FortiAnalyzer also provides advanced security management functions such as quarantine archiving, event correlation, vulnerability assessments, traffic analysis, and archiving of email, Web access, instant messaging and file transfer content.
