Fortinet announces a series of new achievements

“Earning these distinctions demonstrates the reliability, efficacy and value of our solutions, and also highlights our commitment to ensure we have the best products to help organizations protect their most valuable assets,” said Ken Xie, Founder, Chairman of the board and CEO at Fortinet.

“With today’s complex and ever-increasing cyber threats, businesses want to know that the vendors and solutions they choose can deliver on the promises they make. Third-party validation provides our customers with an independent, objective measure by which to judge security solutions in this highly competitive environment,” he added.
