The FortiGate Security Appliance 10G is a new firewall we are offering thru the IBM Cloud, powered by Fortinet’s patented security processors and highly optimized security software. This powerful firewall provides the industry’s highest threat protection and SSL inspection performance, whether if its deployed at the network edge, in the core, or in the segments. It can protect multiple VLANs (public or private) with not only firewalling, but also with advance inspection technologies such as IPS, application control, and anti-malware.

FSA 10G can also track the state of traffic based on OSI layers 2 through 4, but also from layers 2 through 7. You can order the optional FortiGuard Anti-Virus add-on service on the IBM Cloud FSA 10G, which will protect your workload against the latest viruses, spyware, and other threats.
