Fortinet FortiSIEM Implementation Team
CO
Cletus Okolie
Senior Network Associate at AMCON, Inc.
We used a consultant for the deployment because it was a new product, and we wanted to ensure that it was done correctly. However, it is possible to deploy Fortinet FortiSIEM in-house by following the deployment guide.
The deployment took one week to deploy Fortinet FortiSIEM, excluding the time it took to acquire the necessary servers and virtual machines.
The first step was to purchase the necessary servers and virtual machines. We also needed to upgrade our VM version from 5 to 7.X. Once we had all of the necessary hardware and software in place, we were able to begin the deployment process.
We have five managers overseeing IT, internal control, and corporate. The staffing needs depend on their specific roles. The ID team provides the necessary support to ensure the application runs smoothly. Control users are in place to ensure that changes are made with proper information, and any alterations require approval. For these tasks, we have approximately five admins managing the process.

Deployment and implementation of FortiSIEM took three months due to the tuning and the building of the dashboards. We used Fortinet professional services for our first deployment. For the second deployment, we used our in-house team.

Manager, ICT Enterprise Services at a government with 201-500 employees
We used a local integrator for the deployment. They were good. When you consider the other SIEM products, this isn't a popular solution. When we implemented it, we were with the solution before it was acquired by Fortinet. It was a hassle.

We implemented through Fortinet professional services. We were one of the first customers to implement the new version and it was a bit complex. I believe it has become easier. Deployment took them only a few hours. It didn't take a long time.
