With SAP users growing concerned about whether their legacy solutions can withstand the multitude of cyberattacks as of late, especially when considering cloud migrations and transferring vast amounts of data, which can inevitably leave users vulnerable.

Most legacy security systems struggle to provide the inspection and enforcement that current access points require. Fortunately, Fortinet is one of the few vendors that provide edge security solutions that ensure zero-trust connectivity, inspect WPA3-encrypted traffic and monitor streaming video without impact connectivity at Wi-Fi 7 speeds.

Fortinet has recently announced a comprehensive secure networking solution integrated with Wi-Fi 7. The company’s first Wi-Fi 7 access point, FortiAP 441K, delivers increased speed and capability. The new FortiSwitch T1024 is purpose-built with 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GE) access and 90W Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology to support Wi-Fi 7 bandwidth requirements.

These new devices deliver cutting-edge wireless performance to support the needs of users, and as a part of the Fortinet Secure Networking solution, seamlessly integrates with AIOps and FortiGuard AI-Powered Security Services for enhanced security, visibility and control.

With Fortinet’s new solutions, SAP users can take full advantage of faster data transfer, lower latency, better load balancing and reduced interference and up to twice as fast connection speeds.

John Maddison, Chief Marketing Officer and EVP, Product Strategy at Fortinet, said: “Fortinet is the only vendor converging networking technology and AI-powered security into a single, holistic solution to connect and protect the wired and wireless LAN.

“With today’s news, we’re putting the latest wireless technology breakthrough into the hands of customers, who can now take advantage of Wi-Fi 7’s increased throughput while keeping their wireless traffic secure and their business efficient.”

Ganesh Swaminathan, Vice President and General Manager, Wireless Infrastructure and Networking, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc, said: “Qualcomm Technologies is pleased to continue collaborating closely with Fortinet to pair next-gen Secure Networking solutions with our Qualcomm Networking Pro 1220 platform. The Qualcomm Networking Pro 1220 platform in the FortiAP 441K is designed to set new benchmarks for enterprise networking performance with massive capacity, wire-like stability and blazing fast speeds, pushing the boundaries of what Wi-Fi can do in the modern enterprise.”
