FORTIGATE-310B

The FortiGate-310B raises the bar for mid-size enterprise security devices. Incorporating multiple FortiASIC Network Processors (NP2) for wire-speed firewall/VPN operation, and the FortiASIC content processor (CP) for content inspection acceleration, the FortiGate-310B yields unmatched multi-threat performance across the highest port density of any product in its class. AMC module options offer additional deployment and operational flexibility, expanding the FortiGate-310B's Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000 ports to 14 Gigabit Ethernet ports, or adding an internal HDD for local logging and archiving. The FortiGate-310B's accelerated security throughput, high port density, and ease of management allows medium-sized enterprises to enjoy a degree of internal network security segmentation and policy control previously available only within larger-scale solutions.

Not only is the volume of email traffic rising but with it, the complexity of malware with the presence of blended threats combining spam, viruses, worms and spyware. To help ensure optimum service and security for our customers, we needed an effective multi-layered solution that combined antivirus, anti-spam and anti-spyware technologies in one appliance. FortiMail met our performance requirements while providing ease-of-use and management to our IT team which is essential as we do not have the time or resources to deploy and maintain separate point solutions.
