Fortinet FortiEDR Primary Use Case
At my last job, we used FortiEDR to secure endpoints for 8,000 employees across MacBooks and Linux machines, ensuring the protection of backups and VPN connections.
In 2020, we faced a significant challenge with remote work in Brazil, where BitLocker was utilized. FortiEDR proved invaluable as it allowed us to create a secure process for remote access.
I oversee Fortinet solutions, focusing on endpoint security and processing.
We deployed the FortiEDR solution for our remote workforce as well.

Our primary use cases for Fortinet FortiEDR are cash registers and endpoint, and point of sales.
The reason we originally started with FortiClient with one of our clients in the first place was that they were able to have legacy cash registers, a really old technology, which we had to get to run in a small resource space, and FortiClient, which was the predecessor, allowed us to literally pick and choose what features we wanted in the client and reduce its size, which you couldn't do with any other types of clients that were out there. That's how we started with that.
It is mostly on premise and any cloud services that we use are directly from Fortinet themselves. I would call that public cloud. We do run some of the customer's environment in private cloud, basically co-location. This has provided the services back to their dataset. I am talking about Fortinet's cloud for the public. For the private stuff it was basically out at Q9, which is the co-location provider.

The implementation that we have is on one municipality in Serbia with, for example, 300 plus users. It was the FortiGate F200 EDR solution with an appliance and the necessary one-year support.

View full review »The competition of Fortinet FortiEDR is with CrowdStrike in Sri Lanka, especially if I consider the banking and BFSI sectors, where most of the network areas are handled by Fortinet. With Fortinet FortiEDR, the customers get security and endpoint security for their networks. My company deals with Fortinet FortiEDR for our customers.

We would have used this solution for endpoint detection EDR, which we don't currently have. We wanted to see how it works with the discovery of the history of some things that might come up.

We had a ransomware attack in 2017, and that's when we went with enSilo, which is now called FortiEDR. It helps us to detect the hash files and all that. So far, it's really good. It detects any kind of anomaly. If any installation is happening, it checks the process and everything else and lets us know how it works.

We work with the end-to-end Fortinet portfolio, especially their UTM firewall, anti-APT, and EDR solutions.
We use FortiEDR to detect malicious activities that primarily occur on the endpoints. For example, it can catch a server downloading malicious software or a user accidentally accessing a harmful URL. Three or four engineers manage the solution.
