FortiAnalyzer - Security through transparency

Name: EnBITCon GmbH
Rating: 4.9 (195 reviews)

Even with high security standards, it can never be categorically ruled out that malware will overcome existing security measures and disrupt workflows, steal data and enable illegal access from outside. The constant arms race between cyber criminals and security technology always provides scope for corresponding incidents.

In this case, it is no less important to have detailed and precise analysis and tracking tools at hand that can reconstruct how malware has penetrated and what it has done. This is where FortiAnalyzer comes into play, and also as a preventive measure. It provides accurate logging and analysis of everything that happens on your Fortinet network and detects vulnerable spots and patterns as well as irregularities. As a preventive measure, we also recommend an IT vulnerability analysis, which reveals security gaps in advance.

Managed FortiAnalyzer by EnBITCon

With the FortiAnalyzer, security data - so-called logs - can be collected, archived and evaluated. In addition, the FortiAnalyzer helps to track down successful virus attacks. It gives cyber forensics important information about how and when a virus could enter your network. Using real-time alerts in case of danger, you can act quickly and take appropriate measures.

Thanks to the integrated "Indicators of Compromise", you can evaluate even more details from your log files. The IOCs tell you whether anomalies have appeared in your network or whether an attack is currently taking place. This gives you even more transparency in your network.

By the way, you can also have other Fortinet products report to the FortiAnalyzer service. The only limit here is the daily log volume. However, you can expand this at any time. Feel free to contact us!

What exactly does the Fortinet Analyzer do?

FortiAnalyzer collects log data from connected Fortinet security appliances and provides complete and simple visibility into them. A comprehensive suite of easily customisable reports allows users to quickly analyse network threats, inefficiencies and current usage. This is achieved in particular through an equally intuitive and informative visualisation of these data summaries. The Analyzer is thus one of several versatile Fortinet management products that offer a variety of deployment types, growth flexibility, advanced customisation via APIs and easy licensing. The number of log files is subject to a daily limit, which can, however, be flexibly adapted to one's own requirements via subscription.

These are the features of the FortiAnalyzer

The FortiAnalyzer thus provides a compact overview of utilisation, processes and irregularities within a Fortinet network structure and can thus offer valuable orientation in normal day-to-day business as well as in "crisis situations". Be it to identify and eliminate inefficiencies or possible security gaps or to track down the causes of an infection. The FortiAnalyzer offers the following features and optional modules to realise this:

FortiView - Provides a compact overview of the most vulnerable points in your network, the biggest traffic consumers and the most frequent traffic destinations, to name just a few.
NOC - Reveals key metrics in terms of network activity, including network security monitoring, Wi-Fi security and system performance.
Viewing device logs - Sorted by device, all activities of these devices can be viewed according to the logging departments Traffic, Events and Security.
Real-time monitoring - Selected devices can be monitored in real time. According to predefined filters, the log files are thus openly displayed and the underlying tasks or events are passed.
Summary reports - Based on the logs, FortiAnalyzer can generate summaries in terms of system reports.

How is the Fortinet FortiAnalyzer implemented?

FortiAnalyzer functions can be enabled for either a FortiManager unit or standalone FortiAnalyzer units, but not for both at the same time. The functions can be used to view and analyse logs from units with logging enabled that are managed by FortiManager. On the other hand, if the functions are enabled manually, logs are stored and FortiAnalyzer functions are configured in FortiManager.

When the features are enabled by adding a FortiAnalyzer to the FortiManager, logs are stored and log storage settings are configured on the FortiAnalyzer unit. Managed units with logging enabled send logs to the FortiAnalyzer. The FortiManager "remotely" accesses logs on the FortiAnalyzer unit and displays the information.
