Organizations need a simple way to gain visibility and enforce security across distributed OT assets. Fortinet OT Security combines asset discovery, segmentation, secure connectivity, and SOC-driven automation to reduce risk, improve resilience, and maintain compliance across industrial environments.
Activate the FortiGuard OT Security Service on a FortiGate NGFW and protect vulnerable legacy OT devices with automated virtual patching and custom OT IPS signatures. These compensating controls shield unpatched systems from malicious exploits. As a result, organizations maintain secure, resilient operations as industrial networks evolve and connect to IT, the cloud, and external networks.
Gain precise segmentation and microsegmentation, reduce lateral threat movement, and maintain secure, resilient industrial networks. With FortiLink tecnnology, your FortiSwitches can be directly managed and secured by a FortiGate NGFW, enabling you to enforce security policies at the individual switch-port level, controlling access for every OT device.

Protect critical OT systems by granting necessary access with granular controls, monitoring, and auditing. These compensating controls minimize risk and ensure secure, resilient operations. With FortiPAM, organizations can safely manage third-party remote access to OT environments, including internal remote users, contractors, auditors, and vendors.
