Frequently Asked Questions, Honest Answers
Why does Baggenstos, as an expert for Fortinet Switzerland, recommend precisely this vendor for local companies?
Fortinet is our first choice because, with the Security Fabric, the company offers a seamless ecosystem: firewall, switch, access point and management work as a single unit. For Swiss SMEs, the local presence with a location in Dietlikon, short support channels and a clear commitment to the DACH market also matter. Added to this is the technical depth – ASIC-based processors and integrated AI ensure security without loss of speed. As a certified Fortinet Expert Partner, we combine this portfolio with our Microsoft expertise so that your security works holistically.
What does a Fortinet solution cost as a managed service?
The pricing model is based on monthly costs that cover operation, monitoring, updates and support. The amount depends on the number of locations, devices and the desired service level. In an initial meeting we record your needs and you receive a transparent offer. Many customers save in the long term because proactive management eliminates expensive emergency call-outs and extends the hardware lifespan.
Do you also offer the ongoing maintenance and updating of our network security as a managed service?
Yes. We run your Fortinet environment as a managed service at predictable monthly costs. This includes round-the-clock monitoring, patch and firmware management, configuration maintenance, incident response, and regular health checks and reporting. Our Swiss team takes on operational responsibility – including updates for FortiGate, FortiSwitch, FortiAP and FortiManager. This keeps your network security permanently up to date without you having to build up in-house expertise. You stay in control, we do the work.
How does a modern FortiGate firewall concretely protect our company network against current cyberattacks?
FortiGate inspects your data traffic in real time and blocks threats before they reach the network. The firewall combines intrusion prevention, anti-malware, web and application filters with sandboxing for unknown files. Thanks to ASIC processors and AI-based analysis, this happens without performance losses, even with encrypted traffic. As part of the Security Fabric, FortiGate exchanges threat data with FortiSwitch, FortiAP and Microsoft Defender. If one component detects an attack, the overall system responds in a coordinated way and automatically isolates affected devices.
What role does a holistic network security strategy play in protecting sensitive customer data?
Sensitive customer data is only as secure as the weakest link in the network. A holistic strategy closes exactly these gaps: segmentation separates critical areas, network access control checks every device before access, encryption protects data in transit. With the Fortinet Security Fabric we link firewall, LAN, WLAN and cloud access into a seamless protective shield. Combined with Microsoft Defender and Entra ID, a security architecture emerges that withstands the requirements of the Swiss Data Protection Act and the GDPR – traceable and auditable.
Can our existing servers and cloud services be secured smoothly with FortiGate components?
Yes. FortiGate secures local servers, hybrid environments and cloud services under a single policy. For Microsoft Azure we rely on FortiGate's native integration as a virtual firewall and, where needed, combine it with Microsoft Global Secure Access. This creates consistent protection from the data centre to the cloud, with no gaps in logging and management. As a Fortinet Expert Partner with deep Azure expertise, we know both worlds and configure the interfaces so that your existing workloads keep running while meeting the new security standard.
Can we continue to use our existing network hardware?
That depends on the age and condition of your current infrastructure. We can usually integrate existing Fortinet devices into the new architecture without any problems. We replace devices from other vendors step by step so that no big bang is needed. In the assessment we examine every device and recommend transparently what stays and what is replaced. This way you avoid unnecessary investments.
