FortiSASE Cloud: Features & Benefits

• Combines firewall-as-a-service (FWaaS), secure web gateway (SWG), CASB, SD-WAN, ZTNA and DLP — delivering full security stack from the cloud.
• Applies consistent security policy to all user traffic — internet, SaaS, private apps — regardless of user location or device.
• Integrates directly with the broader Fortinet Security Fabric and existing FortiOS environments when required.

• Delivered as a cloud service with a global network of PoPs — enabling low-latency, high-performance access regardless of user geography.
• Subscription-based, per-user (or per-device) licensing supports scalable growth and predictable costs — no upfront hardware investment.
• Removes need for on-premises firewalls, gateways or security appliances — lowering operational overhead and simplifying deployment.

• Supports identity- and context-aware Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) instead of legacy VPN — enforcing access control based on user, device posture, and application.
• Provides real-time threat protection: web filtering, anti-malware, intrusion prevention, SSL inspection, content and file filtering, and DLP — enforced at cloud edge.
• Offers CASB capabilities (inline and API-based) for SaaS visibility and governance — helping control data exfiltration and shadow-IT risk.

• Single unified management console consolidates configuration, visibility, logging and analytics across all users and use cases (web, SaaS, private apps).
• Built-in digital experience monitoring (DEM) tracks connectivity, performance and endpoint metrics — from last-mile user network to cloud PoPs — to surface performance or security issues quickly.
• Multi-tenant support for service providers (MSSPs) — allowing managed service delivery with consistent policy enforcement and reporting across multiple clients.
