Overview:

Enhancing Collaboration, App Performance, and Security with Fortinet Secure SD-WAN and Overlay-as-a-Service

Managing WAN infrastructure can be difficult for smaller organizations with limited resources, constrained IT budgets, and evolving technology landscapes. Even more challenging for these smaller organizations is meeting the demand for cost-effective solutions that deliver simplicity, robust performance, and security.

Fortinet offers a tailored solution combining Secure SD-WAN and Overlay-as-a-Service (OaaS) for small and midsized businesses (SMBs) to empower WAN infrastructure transformation while ensuring comprehensive secure internet connectivity, optimizing collaboration across sites, and enhancing application performance.

Legacy Solution Challenges

A typical SMB has multiple sites seeking to connect securely to the internet, access applications in a fast secure fashion, and interconnect sites to allow for efficient and seamless data sharing and collaboration. Trying to accomplish these tasks with a legacy router solution can be cumbersome and expensive to support. Here are some other key issues with a legacy solution:

  • Complex to manage and difficult to use
  • Requires expertise in VPN configuration and routing protocols
  • Lacks application layer visibility across the WAN making it difficult to troubleshoot
  • Unable to deliver superior user experience as it cannot steer traffic intelligently
  • Lacks advanced security to protect users and devices

Fortinet Secure SD-WAN

Fortinet Secure SD-WAN replaces legacy branch routers and optimizes user experience, mitigates risks, and enhances operational efficiency. Key features and benefits include:

Centralized Management

Our solution offers centralized management with FortiGate Cloud management. This simplifies deployment and configuration, enforcing per-application SLAs, and monitoring the SD-WAN infrastructure.

Cost-efficient Connectivity

Fortinet Secure SD-WAN enables cost-efficient connectivity options, such as broadband internet, to establish secure and reliable connections between branch offices, the cloud, and the internet. This helps reduce operational costs while ensuring high availability and performance.

Integrated Security

Fortinet Secure SD-WAN embeds advanced security functionalities directly into SD-WAN, ensuring comprehensive protection against cyberthreats without the need for additional security appliances.

Fortinet Overlay-as-a-Service (OaaS)

OaaS is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) turnkey service for overlay connectivity offered and managed by Fortinet via our easy-to-use FortiCloud portal. The service is purpose-built for lean organizations that may have limited technical expertise or constrained budgets. You can facilitate the rapid deployment and seamless interconnection of locations within minutes, eliminating the need for self-hosting or a dedicated hub. In addition, it helps reduce configuration errors.

Facilitating secure VPN tunnels to interconnect sites requires hosting, configuring, and managing FortiGate Secure SD-WAN hubs. Adding hubs requires IT expertise to create IPsec VPN tunnels between sites, configure routers, and set up firewall policies to securely allow traffic between sites and the internet. This requires more IT time and resources as well as additional hardware and management costs.
