FortiGate firewall protection that you subscribe to as a service, instead of buying and owning the hardware up front.
You order FortiGate capacity as a subscription. Fortinet provides the hardware capability as a service, with management included through FortiManager as a service, and you pay on a recurring basis.
Inmate technology programs tend to grow in phases, as tablets, kiosks and education programs are added unit by unit. A subscription lets an agency add the same control and logging as those programs expand, without waiting on a capital purchase.
- Adds control points as new inmate programs or housing units come online.
- Keeps inmate network enforcement on supported hardware.
- Turns a large capital purchase into a predictable operating cost.
- Keeps hardware within a supported lifecycle without a capital replacement project.
- Delivers the same firewall inspection as owned FortiGates, so segmentation and policy design carry over.
- Includes hosted management, which reduces on-site tooling.
