  Bypass WAN/LAN mode
  The FortiGate-81F model provides organizations with a pair of bypass ports to prevent network disruption due to device failure and increase network reliability.

3G/4G WAN connection

The FortiGate 81F series includes a USB 3.0 port that enables you to connect compatible 3G/4G USB modems, which can be used for additional connections to WAN networks or as an additional connection link to maximize network reliability.

Compact and reliable

This device is designed for small environments and you can place it on the table or install it on the wall. It is small and light yet highly reliable and has a very high MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) index, which minimizes the possibility of network disruption.

Fortinet Security Fabric

Security Fabric is a cyber security framework that enables digital innovations in this field. This framework provides extensive transparency into the entire attack surface to better manage risk. This integrated solution reduces the complexities associated with supporting multiple products while automating workflows to increase operational speed and reduce response time across the entire environment covered by Fortinet products. Fortinet Security Fabric brings together all of the following key areas in one management center:
• Security-oriented network management that improves network security and speed and integrates network solutions with solutions to improve user experience.

• Zero Trust access to the network that detects the entry and exit of users and devices to the network in real-time and ensures their security.

• Dynamic cloud security that protects and controls cloud infrastructure and applications.

• Artificial intelligence-based security operations that automatically prevent, detect, isolate and respond to cyber threats.

FortiOS

FortiGate devices are based on the Fortinet Security Fabric and its core is FortiOS. All of the FortiGate 80F’s network and security capabilities across the FortiGate platform are controlled by an operating system that is fully graphical and therefore easy to learn. FortiOS reduces complexity, costs, and response time by combining next-generation security products and services on a single platform.

• A unified platform where you can easily view all your cyber attacks under one operating system and web panel.
  • Unrivaled Protection: Recommended by NSS Labs, VB100, AV-Comparatives and certified by ICSA for security and performance
