Fortinet Centralized Management > FortiGuard Analysis and Management Service

Hosted Centralized Analysis and Management Solution for FortiGate Systems
Centralized security reporting, logging and configuration management are critical components of an enterprise’s security best practices. To enable smaller organizations to benefit from a centralized management solution, which is typically priced out of the reach of smaller
organizations,
Fortinet offers the FortiGuard Analysis and Management Service. By delivering the solution via a hosted service model, businesses of all sizes using FortiGate platforms can benefit from a robust, fault tolerant security reporting,
log analysis and centralized management solution. There are no additional requirements for hardware, software or facilities —
providing a low cost of entry for smaller organizations and highly distributed environments.

| Key Challenges |
|
| Expand Security Capabilities While Staying Within Budget |
Purchasing hardware, software, and data center space can prevent investing in centralized management due to high up-front costs. |
| Achieve Organization-Wide Network Security Visibility |
Monitoring, managing and maintaining control over remote site devices and large numbers of platforms is complex without a centralized management solution. |
| Audit Changes to Security Devices |
Maintaining and documenting configuration changes can be challenging to perform manually. |
| Meet Regulatory Requirements |
Many regulations require specific levels of security log retention, reporting capabilities and restricted access to information. |
