Fortinet has announced a global agreement with Unisys, a technology services
and solutions company. According to the agreement, Unisys would resell
Fortinet's enterprise and high-end security systems - from the FortiGate-50 to
the FortiGate-5000 series - to its customers and manage all outsourcing
requirements for firewall, antivirus, IPS, Web content filtering and anti-spam
functions. Unisys would also support the FortiGate products for its customers,
including subscription services and 24-hour replacement services.
Fortinet's FortiGate multi-threat security systems would be used as both
supported premise equipment and operational infrastructure in the Unisys Managed
Security Services, which deliver outsourced firewall, antivirus, intrusion
prevention systems (IPS), Web content filtering and antispam solutions to
enterprise clients worldwide, Fortinet said in a statement.
"Our decision to begin offering an integrated system as part of our
outsourced offering was driven by budgetary and functional requirements, as
traditional firewall offerings were not sufficiently meeting our customers'
demands for highly effective, multi-functional systems but at lower price
points," said Paul Davis, VP and Program Manager, Enterprise Security,
Unisys.
"We chose to work with Fortinet based on the FortiGate systems'
superiority in terms of central management tooling crucial for service
providers, their usability, and the maturity and reliability of the products
themselves," he added.
Karl Soderlund, VP of America Sales and Global Alliances for Fortinet, said,
"The addition of Fortinet solutions to Unisys' offering both validates the
capabilities of our products and the demand for integrated security among global
enterprises. We're confident that Unisys and its customers will benefit from the
superior performance, scalability, ease of management and comprehensive security
that of our FortiGate systems provide, and we're looking forward to a mutually
beneficial partnership."
