Global Service Providers Partner with Fortinet to Deliver Customized and Scalable Secure SD-WAN ServicesSUNNYVALE, Calif., May 26, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- John Maddison, EVP of products and CMO, Fortinet News Summary With the recent increase in remote workforces, network service providers are facing unprecedented demand for highly scalable VPN service offerings. Additionally, as the SD-WAN market has matured, these same SPs are beginning to offer security services as new customer demands and deployment efficiency call for advanced and integrated security. In fact, all participating service providers in a recent MEF (Metro Ethernet Forum) survey identified security as an essential value-added service they were either planning to offer or have already started offering on top of their SD-WAN solution. With advanced routing, security and SD-WAN functionality in a single solution, Fortinet Secure SD-WAN has emerged as a top choice for network service providers to offer new and differentiated value-added services to their customers. Heightened by one of the broadest API ecosystems in the industry, Fortinet enables service providers to customize highly scalable secure SD-WAN services that can be quickly added to their offerings and easily deployed at customer sites. Fortinet’s security-driven networking approach to SD-WAN empowers service providers with the ability to deliver highly scalable VPN services for business continuity. This approach also gives SPs the ability to build a complete security services platform with next-generation firewall capabilities such as web filtering, anti-malware, and threat protection, including deep SSL inspection, and even further expand to SD-Branch for complete consolidation of branch services. The following are testimonials from network service providers that have chosen Fortinet Secure SD-WAN to differentiate their business: “Fortinet Secure SD-WAN allows us to quickly onboard customers and automate operations with an open and extensible API ecosystem. As Alestra's strategic partner, Fortinet solutions and market experience have been key to strengthening our proposal for digital innovation, while it supports our ability to be agile and implement highly secure and differentiated solutions for our business and government customers." “Fortinet’s commitment to security and interoperability enables us to extend services beyond just WAN connectivity into areas such as SD-Branch, IoT and cloud acceleration. It’s a game changer that allows us to empower our customers with a secure hybrid WAN.” “With the evolution of cybersecurity threats and the ever-increasing demand for bandwidth, many Canadian companies suffer from the vulnerability and constraints of their legacy networks. We are proud to partner with industry-leading Fortinet to offer a security-integrated, turn-key SD-WAN service to secure and optimize direct internet access traffic, thereby improving network performance and security for our clients.” Continued Secure SD-WAN Innovation
