  • Ranked #1 in Secure Branch Network Modernization use case.

  • Targets $28.5B SASE market by 2028 with 160+ global PoPs.

Unified SASE Platform for Digital Acceleration

Fortinet’s FortiSASE platform, built on the FortiOS operating system, integrates secure SD-WAN, universal zero-trust network access (ZTNA), and AI-powered threat protection, delivering a single-vendor solution for secure connectivity. “We believe being positioned in the Leaders quadrant in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for SASE Platforms affirms our strategy of blending proven secure SD‑WAN, universal ZTNA, and AI‑powered threat protection under a single operating system, FortiOS, and one license for added simplicity and faster ROI,” said Nirav Shah, Senior Vice President of Products and Solutions at Fortinet. The platform’s centralized management console and over 160 points-of-presence (PoPs) ensure scalability and consistent security across hybrid work environments.

Driving Branch Modernization and Sovereignty

Fortinet’s #1 ranking in the Secure Branch Network Modernization use case highlights its ability to replace legacy MPLS architectures with zero-touch provisioning and centralized orchestration. This reduces deployment time and operational costs, enabling high-performance branch experiences. FortiSASE’s Sovereign SASE offering addresses data sovereignty needs in regulated industries like finance and healthcare, supported by Fortinet’s global cloud infrastructure investments. The platform’s AI-driven workflows, including secure web gateway (SWG), cloud access security broker (CASB), and Firewall-as-a-Service (FWaaS), keep it ahead of evolving threats.

Industry Recognition and Market Impact

Fortinet’s leadership extends beyond SASE, with recognition in 11 Gartner Magic Quadrant reports, including SD-WAN, Security Service Edge (SSE), and network firewalls. It is the only vendor named Customers’ Choice across all SASE components—SD-WAN, SSE, and ZTNA—in Gartner Peer Insights for 2024 and 2025. With a projected $28.5 billion SASE market by 2028, Fortinet’s monthly innovations and partner enablement position it to meet growing demand. The finance card above shows FTNT’s market cap at $82.3 billion, with a year-high of $114.82 and a year-low of $54.57.

Fortinet’s unified SASE platform, validated by its 2025 Gartner leadership, empowers organizations with secure, scalable connectivity, positioning the company as a trailblazer in the convergence of networking and cybersecurity.
