FireMon + Fortinet

Comprehensive firewall rule management to reduce risk, manage change, and enforce compliance

Manage policy through a single interface – across Fortinet, traditional and cloud-based firewalls, and cloud security groups

FIREMON + FORTINET

Simplify & Automate Firewall Policy Management

As enterprise networks become more complex with new devices and cloud services, managing firewall and security policies using manual tools is becoming increasingly difficult. This often leads to compliance violations, misconfigurations, and data breaches. That’s where FireMon Security Manager comes in – a must-have tool for ForitGate and FortiManager users to effectively manage policies, minimize policy-related risks, make accurate rule changes, and meet internal and external compliance requirements.

The FireMon-Fortinet partnership enables companies to effectively manage the complexity of firewall policies to:

Reduce policy related risk by finding high-risk vulnerabilities embedded in firewall policies
Manage firewall rule changes and policies that span Fortinet and devices from other vendors
Achieve and maintain compliance of firewall policies with internal and external standards
Migrate Firewall policy to Fortinet devices or to the cloud to simplify rule review, cleaning, and staging for migration
Manage multi-vendor firewall policy by gathering devices and policies across the entire environment with built-in support for over 80 vendors

Integration Brief

Hear from real FireMon users

“We have Fortinet, Cisco, and Palo Alto in-house, and FireMon works with all of these. We are moving into the cloud now using Palo Alto, and we don’t see any Issue adding this to FireMon... It’s a must-have tool for the security department.”
Cyber Security Engineer1,000+ employees

“FireMon Security Manager is well suited for a dynamic environment that includes firewalls from multiple types of manufacturers with a large amount of firewall changes. It has the ability to monitor Check Point, Cisco, Fortinet, Palo Alto and many more firewalls.”
Jamie Hudson, Information Systems AuditorLegalShield, 500+ employees

“I would strongly recommend FireMon for any IT/Security department that must maintain and support multiple firewall platforms. FireMon’s ability to create a unified interface to view, audit, and even implement rules in a vendor-agnostic manner is excellent.”
IT EngineerRetail Company, 10,000+ employees

“FireMon is also effective for hybrid cloud deployments. The same security posture that aligns with private deployment can be set at the public cloud. Even if you deploy the same firewall vendors (CheckPoint, Palo Alto, etc.) to the cloud you get the same output.”
IT SupervisorBanking Company, 10,000+ employees
