Fortinet Named a Leader in the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Enterprise Wired and Wireless LAN Infrastructure for the Second Year in a RowSUNNYVALE, Calif., June 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- News Summary Fortinet® (NASDAQ: FTNT), the global cybersecurity leader driving the convergence of networking and security, today announced it has been recognized as a Leader in the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Enterprise Wired and Wireless LAN Infrastructure for the second year in a row. Fortinet believes this recognition reflects the strength of its industry-leading secure LAN edge portfolio, including secure networking solutions such as FortiSwitch and FortiAP. The portfolio is fully integrated with the Fortinet Security Fabric and powered by a single operating system, FortiOS, to deliver converged networking and security. “Unlike traditional networking solutions that bolt security on after the fact, the Fortinet wired and wireless LAN portfolio was developed from the ground up with built-in AI-powered security and AI-assisted network operations. This convergence enables customers to simplify operations, improve performance, and extend security from IT into OT environments. We believe this is what continues to set Fortinet apart and make us a leader in this market,” said Nirav Shah, Senior Vice President, Products and Solutions, at Fortinet. The Fortinet Secure LAN Edge portfolio addresses evolving customer needs and delivers key benefits, including:
These capabilities are all delivered through a single operating system, FortiOS, which powers the Fortinet Security Fabric across the networking and security domains. Customer Recognition “One of the big reasons we chose Fortinet is that their networking tools are built from the ground up with security in mind… With the Fortinet solutions, our network speed has been amazing. We used to receive frequent performance-related complaints from end-users, but we have heard zero complaints since we deployed the Fortinet networking solutions.”
“FortiAPs have better availability than their competitors and easier, single-pane-of-glass management. We considered an unmanaged AP, but when we realized how tightly FortiAP integrates with the Fortinet Security Fabric, the decision was a nobrainer. We expect the FortiSwitches and FortiAPs to work together to paint a very complete security picture for our team.”
