Fortinet’s Sandbox Solution Recommended by NSS Labs

Fortinet announced the results of the latest NSS Labs Breach Detection System (BDS) group test. Fortinet’s newly introduced FortiSandbox 2000E was put to the test to validate its performance when deployed in an enterprise environment, earning NSS Labs coveted ‘Recommended’ rating.

* NSS Lab’s BDS report is the industry’s most comprehensive test of security effectiveness for Breach Detection Systems offered today and helps security customers select the best solutions based on real-world performance.

* The FortiSandbox 2000E caught 100 percent of web and email malware, received a 99 percent overall breach detection score, more than doubled datasheet throughput performance, and offered the lowest Total Cost of Ownership of the solutions tested.

Recent and rapid outbreaks of malware like WannaCry, necessitate that every organization have a sandbox deployed as an automated analysis tool and threat intelligence hub capable of detecting advanced threats and zero-day exploits before they can impact enterprise networks.

Rajesh Maurya, regional VP, India & SAARC at Fortinet, said: “Cybercriminals are evolving new attack strategies at an alarming rate and creating a situation in which the time from breach to full compromise occurs in minutes. This has made it a high priority for security teams to adopt solutions for advanced detection and rapid mitigation.

"We are honored to receive this latest NSS Labs Recommendation for the FortiSandbox, which maintains our four-year record of consistently delivering proven sandbox solutions to protect our customers. Fortinet is a strong believer in independent testing and validation that provides our customers with the critical information they need to make data-driven, validated purchase decisions.”
