FortiClient
Desktop, Laptop and PDA Endpoint Security Solution
Datasheet
Unified Security Agent for PC and Mobile Endpoints
Personal computer (PC) desktop and laptop devices have empowered today’s business users with the capability to access enterprise applications and mission critical data both in the office and on the road. The proliferation of highly mobile smartphone devices that use open operating systems (OS) promise even greater access to enterprise applications and mission critical data. Unfortunately, all devices are exposed to blended threats such as viruses, spam, spyware and worms. Additionally, users accessing inappropriate and dangerous web content jeopardize device integrity, negatively impact productivity and create security and legal exposure. While point product security agent technology, such as antivirus agents, are available to protect devices from certain threats, such methods fall short from comprehensively protecting against blended threats and do not enforce content access guidelines.
FortiClient PC™ and FortiClient Mobile™ provide unified security agent features for personal computers and smartphones. The FortiClient product is a client-based software solution designed to be used in connection with our FortiGate appliances to provide security features for enterprise computers and mobile devices. The feature set includes personal firewall, IPsec VPN, antivirus, Web filtering, WAN acceleration, email DLP and antispam. Powered by the FortiGuard security subscription services for constantly-updated protection to help ensure devices are protected on a real-time basis against current and emerging threats, FortiClient lightweight unified software agents are available for Microsoft® Windows XP™, Microsoft Vista™, Windows Mobile™ and Symbian™ operating systems.
