What Is FortiManager?
FortiManager is a centralized software tool that facilitates enterprise-grade security management for global enterprises in conjunction with FortiAnalyzer. Its capabilities include cross-network visibility, role-based access controls, and automated deployments via API, scripts, stitches, and connectors for cyber threat protection. Once set up at the headquarters of an organization, it enables the FortiGates branches set in the default factory mode to register themselves and connect without any user input.
FortiManager provides the Ansible Zero-Touch-Provisioning toolset for FortiGate. From a single console, enterprises can administer multiple remote offices in tandem. Fortigate can manage locations with over a hundred thousand devices, like switches and firewalls. The system integrates with applications like IBM QRadar, Splunk, and ServiceNow. FortiManager's database automatically backups to five nodes and keeps customer data separate through administrative domains (ADOMs).
