Fortinet ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access) is a security solution that provides secure remote access to applications and resources within an enterprise, adhering to the zero-trust security model. Unlike traditional VPNs that grant broad access once a user connects, Fortinet ZTNA continuously evaluates and verifies the trustworthiness of users, devices, and applications throughout the session. In a zero-trust model, no user or device is automatically trusted, even if they are inside the network perimeter. Instead, every access request is subject to stringent identity verification and policy enforcement.
Fortinet ZTNA integrates with the Fortinet Security Fabric, including FortiGate firewalls, FortiAuthenticator, and FortiClient, to offer a comprehensive and unified approach to secure access management. This enables organizations to manage access control, monitor user behavior, and enforce policies consistently. The solution is particularly well-suited for environments with a high proportion of remote workers, cloud services, and mobile devices, ensuring secure access to resources from anywhere without the need for traditional VPN solutions.
