Fortinet Achieves RSA Secured(R) Partner Certification for FortiGate and FortiMail Security Appliances
The RSA enVision platform is designed to give organizations a single, integrated 3-in-1 log management solution for Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) to simplify compliance; enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of security operations and risk mitigation; and optimize IT and network operations. The RSA enVision platform is engineered to provide automated collection, analysis, alerting, auditing, reporting and storage of IT log data.
"We are very pleased to welcome Fortinet to the RSA Secured Partner Program. Meeting compliance requirements is a critical component allowing organizations to thrive in a virtual world," said
RSA tested FortiOS 4.0 MR2, the latest version of the FortiGate firmware, and FortiMail 4.0, the firmware that supports the messaging security product line. With RSA enVision integration, events triggered from FortiGate and FortiMail devices are logged and sent to the RSA enVision platform for proactive monitoring and risk mitigation. This rich set of security events sent from FortiGate and FortiMail allows customers to understand their exposure at the gateway and more effectively report malicious activity.
"We're very pleased with our completion of the Secured Partner Program and our interoperable partnership with RSA," said
