Similar to Firewalls.com’s Health Check Service!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Industrial Signature Database<\/strong> \u2013 The FortiGuard Industrial DB Signatures provides visibility and control to hundreds of industrial applications and allows the use of custom applications. Industrial DB supports most major Industrial Control System manufacturers and delivers real-time threat intelligence updates.<\/p>\n

FortiCASB<\/strong> \u2013 Fortinet\u2019s cloud-based Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) provides much needed visibility and threat protection into the SaaS and cloud-based applications that enterprises increasingly employ.
