Fortinet introduces new FortiGate 30G, 50G, and 70G firewalls

Fortinet has launched its latest generation of next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) with the introduction of the FortiGate 30G, 50G, and 70G. These new models are specifically designed to meet the growing security and networking demands of distributed organisations, such as branch offices and remote locations.

The FortiGate G series delivers advanced security and networking capabilities in a single integrated solution. These firewalls combine firewall protection, intrusion prevention (IPS), malware and ransomware defence, SD-WAN, and switching functionalities. All these features can be centrally managed via FortiManager, enabling organisations to efficiently implement security policies across multiple locations.

Performance and efficiency with Fortinet’s ASIC technology

The new devices are powered by Fortinet’s fifth-generation ASIC processor, the FortiSP5, which delivers significant performance improvements. The FortiGate 70G, for example, offers:

• 11x faster IPsec VPN throughput than the industry average
• 7x faster firewall throughput than comparable models
• 88% lower power consumption compared to traditional CPU-based systems

This enhanced energy efficiency not only strengthens cybersecurity but also helps organisations reduce operational costs and minimise their environmental footprint.

AI-driven security with FortiAI and FortiGuard

A key innovation in the G series is the integration of Fortinet’s generative AI assistant, FortiAI. This technology supports IT teams by:

• Automating security tasks
• Accelerating threat detection and mitigation
• Enhancing incident analysis and threat remediation

Additionally, the new firewalls leverage FortiGuard AI-Powered Security Services, providing real-time threat detection and automated responses against ransomware, malware, and zero-day exploits.

A future-proof security solution

The FortiGate 30G, 50G, and 70G replace or expand upon the existing 40F, 60F, and 80F series and seamlessly integrate with the Fortinet Security Fabric. This platform helps organisations centralise network security and management while supporting modern solutions such as Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) and AI-driven automation.

With these new NGFW models, Fortinet sets a new standard for network security, combining high performance, AI-powered protection, and energy efficiency in a single, powerful solution.
