What is your favorite aspect of this product?
My favorite aspect of this software belonging to Fortinet is that thanks to its integration with other Fortinet software such as FortiSandbox Cloud it is possible to analyze the endpoints in real time and in case of finding unusual behavior in them they can be isolated from the others to avoid that the endpoints that are free of vulnerabilities do not get infected, on the other hand, the one that has a simple and centralized administration uses this that thus saves time and it is possible to focus on other activities, in addition to the one that provides a secure remote access it not only acts as a vulnerability manager but also as a VPN.
