Nclose announces strategic partnership with Fortinet


Johannesburg, 11 Sep 2014

Nclose is pleased to announce it has entered into a strategic partnership with Fortinet, a world leader in high-performance network security. Listed on the Nasdaq, Fortinet (NASDAQ: FTNT) holds a leadership position in the 2014 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Unified Threat Management; a prestigious title reserved for class-leading innovators in the field of IT security.

From wired/wireless networks and messaging systems to Web applications, databases and much more, Fortinet's solutions portfolio helps secure the broad enterprise information infrastructure, allowing customers to ensure security and control of their networks, users and data. Competing against major industry players, Fortinet products typically trump the field in aspects such as unparalleled functionality, performance and simplicity.

"We're very happy to have Fortinet as a strategic partner," Stephen Osler, Nclose director, says. "While we will be offering their entire range of solutions to our customers, the core focus will fall on firewalling and the protection of Web applications. In the fast-paced world of Web application development, Fortinet's Web Application Firewall (FortiWeb) solution offers critical protection that allows its users the time to make well-informed, considered decisions about the best ways in which to secure their sensitive data and the applications that interact with it."

In addition, Fortinet's network security platforms offer a one-stop solution that complements even the most complex network configurations, working in an integrated fashion to offer high levels of threat management, security and peace of mind. The company offers models to satisfy any deployment requirement, from the desktop FortiGate-20 series for small offices and retail networks to the chassis-based FortiGate-5000 series for large enterprises, service providers, data centres and carriers. Small companies as well as leading multinationals benefit from the best levels of performance and protection, while simplifying the network, and have core security technologies such as firewall, IPS, application control, SSL, VPN, anti-spyware, WAN optimisation, anti-spam, and much more from one single appliance

Martin Potgieter, Nclose Technical Director, has already established extensive experience in the implementation of Fortinet solutions, and is excited about the opportunities it will offer existing and new Nclose customers. He notes that Fortinet's commitment to innovation, reliability and integration means installation on new or existing networks is streamlined and seamless.

"Fortinet is a welcome addition to Nclose's carefully selected range of security applications, and we believe that it supports our drive to offer real-world, cost-effective solutions that we are able to recommend with unflinching certainty to all of our customers," he says.
