As a key component of the Fortinet Security Fabric, FortiClient integrates endpoints into the fabric for early detection and prevention of advanced threats. Security events, including zero-day malware, botnet detections, and vulnerabilities, are reported in real-time.
Thanks to real-time network visibility, administrators can investigate compromised endpoints and remotely quarantine them. Endpoint protection goes beyond just anti-malware protection; the endpoint compliance and vulnerability detection features enable simplified enterprise enforcement.
With the FortiClient Vulnerability Management solution, you can detect OS vulnerabilities and third-party application vulnerabilities in real-time across your attack surface.
As a next-generation endpoint security solution, FortiClient helps connect endpoints to FortiSandbox Cloud, which utilizes behavior-based analysis to automatically analyze all files downloaded to FortiClient endpoints in real-time. Millions of FortiClient and FortiSandbox users worldwide share information about known and unknown malware with the cloud-based FortiGuard. FortiGuard automatically shares this information with other FortiSandbox units and FortiClient endpoints to prevent attacks from known and unknown malware. By integrating with FortiSandbox Cloud and cloud-based FortiGuard Global Threat Intelligence, FortiClient automatically detects and prevents zero-day, advanced malware, and known threats.
FortiClient uses SSL and IPSec VPN to provide secure, reliable access to corporate networks and applications from virtually any remote location with internet connectivity. FortiClient simplifies the remote user experience with built-in automatic connection and VPN features that are always active. Two-factor authentication can also be used to provide an additional layer of security.
FortiClient for Linux protects Linux desktops and servers from malware by utilizing real-time scanning and detecting vulnerabilities before attackers can exploit them. FortiClient also leverages Sandbox threat intelligence to detect and block previously unseen zero-day threats.
The FortiClient Fabric Agent module aids in integrating Linux endpoints with other devices in the Fortinet Security Fabric, providing deep insight into your attack surface for real-time risk awareness and swift response to your most critical threats.
