Fortinet FortiGate firewall audit
FirewallScan is built for FortiGate. It understands FortiOS — policies, address objects, service groups, zones and VPN phases — and turns your configuration into prioritized, fixable findings.
A FortiGate audit that actually understands FortiOS
Generic config scanners treat a FortiGate export as text. FirewallScan models it as FortiOS: it reconstructs the effective policy from your interfaces, zones, address and service objects, NAT rules and VPN configuration, then evaluates how they combine to create real exposure.
That FortiGate-native understanding is why findings are accurate and remediation is precise — down to the exact FortiOS commands needed to fix each issue.
- Resolves policies, objects, zones and services into effective access
- Understands FortiGate-specific constructs, not just generic rules
- Remediation expressed as exact FortiOS configuration
What FirewallScan checks on FortiGate
A FortiGate audit with FirewallScan spans the configuration areas where misconfigurations most often hide.
Firewall policies
Overly permissive and any/any rules, shadowed and redundant policies, missing logging and broad service usage.
Objects & groups
Address and service objects that are broader than intended, plus unused objects that add clutter and risk.
Zones & segmentation
Weak segmentation and cross-zone access that erodes the boundaries your design depends on.
VPN configuration
Weak IPsec proposals, outdated DH groups and remote-access exposure.
Management exposure
Administrative and management interfaces reachable from networks they should never be.
Hygiene
Disabled logging, stale configuration and other quiet drift from best practice.
From FortiGate config to fixes in four steps
- 1
Export
Export your FortiGate configuration — no inline or management access to your device required.
- 2
Analyze
FirewallScan models the effective policy and runs an AI-driven audit in minutes.
- 3
Prioritize
Findings are ranked by real risk so you tackle the most dangerous exposure first.
- 4
Remediate
Apply the exact FortiOS remediation, then re-scan to confirm the fix landed.
How FirewallScan helps
Precise remediation, in FortiOS terms
Because FirewallScan understands FortiOS, its remediation is not generic advice — it is the specific configuration change to make on your FortiGate. Engineers move straight from finding to fix.
Re-run after changes and FirewallScan confirms the issue is resolved, giving you a closed loop from audit to remediation to verification.
- Copy-ready FortiOS commands for each finding
- Closed loop: audit, fix, verify
- Works from an export — simple and safe
