Features And Benefits

Fortinet FortiGuard Database Security™ offers centrally managed, enterprise scale database protection. Automated content updates provide the latest pre configured policies that cover known exploits, configuration weaknesses, OS issues, operational risks, data access privileges, and industry regulatory best practices. Attack signatures change. New bots and worms constantly evolve behaviors. Compromised hosts can remain launch pads for malware indefinitely. A key part of the attack kill chain on an organization is when the threat communicates with a command and control server —either to download additional threats or to exfiltrate stolen data. Attacks against mobile platforms continue to grow and evolve. Fortinet’s Mobile Security Service™ provides effective protection against the latest threats targeting mobile devices. It employs industry leading advanced detection engines to prevent both new and evolving threats from gaining a foothold inside your network and gaining access to its invaluable information. Conventional firewalls only identify port, protocol, and IP addresses.
