Through the deployment of FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs), FortiSwitch secure Ethernet switches and FortiAP wireless access points, the company has a unified platform giving it visibility into its restaurants. With the solution, it is able to please restaurant operators with a secure, managed network that the networking and security team can manage remotely. Ultimately, the efficacy of Fat Brands’ Fortinet environment ensures reliable connectivity and strong security to keep revenue flowing.

“Fortinet allows us to standardize and make the locations very secure, but it also ensures that we do not turn restaurant managers into IT people as they try to figure out what is going on.” – Michael Chachula, CIO, Fat Brands
