If any execution or similar kind of thing is happening, it just alerts us. It doesn't only alert. It also blocks the execution until we allow it. We check whether the execution is legitimate or not, and then approve it or keep it blocked. This gives us a little bit of control over this mechanism. Fortinet FortiEDR is also very straightforward and easy to maintain."
"It is stable and scalable."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."

"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"This is stable and scalable."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"The setup is pretty simple."
