FortiGate™ Antivirus Firewalls are dedicated, hardware-based units that deliver complete, real-time network protection services at the network edge. Based on Fortinet’s revolutionary FortiASIC™ Content Processor chip, the FortiGate platforms are the only systems that can detect and eliminate viruses, worms, and other content-based threats without reducing network performance — even for real-time applications like Web browsing. FortiGate systems also include integrated firewall, content filtering, VPN, intrusion detection and prevention, and traffic shaping functions, making them the most cost effective, convenient, and powerful network protection solutions available.

The FortiGate-1000 Antivirus Firewall provides gigabit-level performance and security capabilities that meet the needs of the most demanding large enterprise networks. The FortiGate-1000 can be deployed as a high performance antivirus and content filtering gateway, or as a complete network protection solution leveraging firewall, VPN, and NIDS capabilities. A dedicated high availability port allows two FortiGate-1000 AV Firewalls to be configured in redundant clusters for improved scalability and uptime. Flexible deployment options allow FortiGate-1000 AV Firewall administrators to customize ports and assign Route and NAT mode options to individual interfaces.
