Integrated with Fortinet's Security Fabric, the security architecture and FortiManager's Automation Driven Network Operations capabilities provide a foundation to secure and optimize network security, such as provisioning and monitoring SD-WAN.

Orchestrate Fortinet security devices and systems on-premise or in the cloud to streamline network provisioning, security policy updates, and change management.

Automate your time-intensive processes and accelerate workflows to offload NOC-SOC, reduce administrative tasks, and address talent shortages.

Optimize Visibility to the entire digital attack surface and awareness of increasing cyber threats from one centralized location, through accurate detection, automated correlation, and rapid response features.

Feature Highlights | Single Pane Automation and Orchestration

FortiManager provides insight into network traffic and threats through a single-pane-of-glass and offers enterprise-class features and sophisticated security management for unified, end-to-end protection to contain advanced threats. FortiManager also delivers the industry's best scalability to manage up to 100,000 Fortinet devices. FortiManager, coupled with the FortiAnalyzer family of centralized logging and reporting appliances, provides a comprehensive and powerful centralized management solution for your organization.

Central Management of Network Infrastructure

FortiManager provides a rich set of tools to help network admins centrally manage Security Fabric devices such as firewalls, switches, wireless wan extenders, access points, and VPNs from a single console, including capabilities to facilitate simplified deployments, centralized provisioning, and connection monitoring for VPNs, APs, SD-WAN, and more.

Configuration and Settings Management

Collectively configure device settings, use the new enhanced provisioning templates to assign firmware and policy packages during approval, and advance CLI templates for improved management of a large number of devices. Automatic device configuration backups with revision control and change auditing make daily administrative tasks easy.

Management Extensions

FortiManager's Management Extensions pane allows rapid expansion of the Single Pane to manage more Security Fabric products. The built-in engine runs containerized management extension applications (MEAs), pulled from FortiGuard. FortiManager's management extensions include modules to allow use of the following:

SD-WAN Orchestrator for all configuration, management, and monitoring of FortiGates on your SD-WAN network.

FortiPortal for cloud-based security and log management, allowing Managed Security Service Providers to delegate controlled access to device configuration and analytics.

FortiWLM to monitor, operate, and administer wireless networks on FortiGates that are managed by FortiManager.

FortiSigConverter to import network intrusion detection rules directly into FortiManager and convert them to Fortinet supported IPS signatures.

FortiAuthenticator for identity and access management, allowing admins to provide access to protected network assets, and track user activity and compliance with security policies.

Automation-Driven Centralized Device Management from a Single Console

FortiManager provides automation-driven centralized management of your Fortinet devices from a single console. This process enables full administration and visibility of your network devices through streamlined provisioning and innovative automation tools.

Integrated with the Fortinet Security Fabric advanced security architecture and automation driven network operations capabilities provide a solid foundation to secure and optimize your network security.
