Introduction: The Rise of Virtual Firewalls

In the modern data center, the perimeter is no longer a physical box in a wiring closet; it is a software-defined boundary stretching across clouds, hypervisors, and containers. As organizations accelerate their digital transformation, the demand for virtualized network functions (VNFs) has skyrocketed. Leading this charge is Fortinet with its industry-leading FortiOS operating system—the brains behind FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs).
