Bangalore



September 6th, 2007

Fortinet has introduced the FortiGate-60B and the FortiWifi-60B multi-threat

security appliances designed for enterprise branch offices, retail outlets and

small businesses. The new FortiGate-60B and the FortiWifi-60B appliances enable

enterprises to extend security to the smallest sites in their organizations.

The new FortiGate-60B and FortiWifi-60B bring power and flexibility to

enterprise branch offices and retail outlets as their needs for protection and

compliance continue to grow. These new security appliances incorporate a

purpose-built FortiASIC specifically designed for high-performance

multi-function security. In addition to increased flexibility and performance,

both appliances feature a front-accessible PC card slot that supports 3G

wireless PC cards from multiple mobile carriers, ensuring flexibility for rapid

deployment.

The FortiGate-60B and FortiWifi-60B also include dual WAN interfaces, an

integrated analog modem, six internal interfaces, and one DMZ interface to allow

network administrators to definitively segment a trusted area for internal users

and an untrusted area for public users.

The FortiWifi-60B provides the same features as the FortiGate-60B, but is

designed specifically to address the secure wireless connectivity requirements

of enterprise branch offices, retail locations and small businesses. This

solution also has built-in 802.11 a/b/g wireless support.

The FortiGate-60B and FortiWifi-60B deliver real-time network protection

through the integration of essential security applications and services -

including firewall, antivirus, virtual private network (VPN), intrusion

prevention (IPS), anti-spam, Web content filtering and traffic shaping - that

can be deployed individually, or combined as a UTM solution.

The FortiGate-60B and FortiWifi-60B are available now through Fortinet's

network of channel partners worldwide.
