Symantec Corp. and Fortinet announced an expansive partnership agreement to provide customers with comprehensive and robust security solutions. Fortinet’s Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) capabilities are planned to be integrated into Symantec’s cloud-delivered Web Security Service (WSS).
Additionally, Symantec’s endpoint protection solutions are also planned to be integrated into the Fortinet Security Fabric platform. The technology partnership provides essential security controls across endpoint, network, and cloud environments that are critical to enforcing the Zero Trust security framework.
The integration provides customers with real-time, actionable threat intelligence and automated response for exploit-driven attacks and advanced malware. Interoperability between Fortinet’s SD-WAN technology will also be certified to work with Symantec’s Web Security Service through Symantec’s Technology Integration Partner Program (TIPP). As part of the collaboration, both companies plan to engage in joint go-to-market activities.
TIPP provides technology partners with everything necessary to develop innovative and differentiated product and service offerings that complement and extend the Symantec solution portfolio. In return, TIPs gain access to Symantec technology, tools and support, resulting in integrated solutions delivered to market faster and more efficiently.
Integration partners have access to a set of fundamental program services, including Symantec software licenses, installation and configuration support, free membership to TSANet, and use of the Technology Integration Partner logo to promote the relationship. Additional benefits are available to Technology Integration Partners with a deeper level of engagement.
The integration of Fortinet’s FortiGate Next-Generation Firewall with Symantec’s WSS will result in a comprehensive set of cloud-delivered threat prevention capabilities in a single service offering.
