FortiGate next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) have built-in support for virtual private networks (VPNs), enabling remote students and employees to connect securely to the school or campus network when necessary or required.

With secure connectivity, provided by FortiClient, schools and universities can support both cloud-based eLearning and remote work with options to split the traffic as needed and only require a secure connection to the school or university when accessing data in those environments.
