Enhanced Visibility With FortiAnalyzer Platforms

FortiAnalyzer platforms integrate network logging, analysis, and reporting into a single system, delivering increased knowledge of security events throughout your network. They provide organizations of any size with centralized security event analysis, forensic research, reporting, content archiving, data mining, malicious file quarantining and vulnerability management. Centralized collection, correlation, and analysis of geographically and chronologically diverse security data from Fortinet appliances and third-party devices deliver a simplified, consolidated view of your security posture.

The FortiAnalyzer family minimizes the effort required to monitor and maintain acceptable use policies, as well as identify attack patterns to help you fine tune your policies. In addition, FortiAnalyzer platforms provide detailed data capture for forensic purposes to comply with policies regarding privacy and disclosure of information security breaches.

Security Event Information Management

You can put time back in your day by deploying a FortiAnalyzer platform into your security infrastructure, creating a single view of your security events, archived content, and vulnerability assessments. FortiAnalyzer platforms accept a full range of data from Fortinet solutions, including traffic, event, virus, attack, content filtering, and email filtering data. It eliminates the need to manually search multiple log files or manually analyze multiple consoles when performing forensic analysis or network auditing. A FortiAnalyzer platform's central data archiving, file quarantine and vulnerability assessment further reduce the amount of time you need to spend managing the range

Choice of Form Factor

Very few organizations use 100% hardware IT infrastructure or 100% virtual IT infrastructure today, creating a need for both hardware appliances and virtual appliances in your security strategy. FortiAnalyzer can be deployed as either hardware or a virtual appliance to fit your environment, which may include a mix of virtual and physical IT infrastructure. FortiAnalyzer will log events from FortiOS-based hardware appliances, virtual appliances, or a combination of both.
