Description

The Network Security Professional designation recognizes your ability to install and manage the day-to-day configuration, monitoring, and operation of a FortiGate device to support specific corporate network security policies.

We recommend this course for network and security professionals who are involved in the day-to-day management, implementation, and administration of a security infrastructure using FortiGate devices.


In this course, you will learn how to use FortiGate Firewall features, including security profiles. You will explore firewall policies, the Fortinet Security Fabric, user authentication, SSL VPN, and how to protect your network using security profiles, such as IPS, antivirus, web filtering, application control, and advanced routing, transparent mode, redundant infrastructure, site-to-site IPsec VPN,  and diagnostics and more.
