People, data, and devices are everywhere, requiring organizations to frequently evolve their business strategies to meet new demands. At the same time, cybercriminals are advancing their efforts, with 75% of security practitioners indicating that today's threat landscape is the most challenging it's been in the past five years. As a result, businesses need more flexibility than ever when procuring cybersecurity technologies and services.

Deploy Fortinet Solutions When and Where You Need Them

At Fortinet, we strive to make it as easy as possible for our customers to procure and deploy the cybersecurity solutions they need. Building on this commitment, we introduced our FortiFlex program last year and are continually enhancing the program to make it even more flexible for organizations of all shapes and sizes.

FortiFlex offers organizations on-demand, usage-based licensing for numerous Fortinet security products and solutions that customers can deploy across their cloud, hybrid-cloud, and on-premises environments. This program gives you the freedom and flexibility to deploy what you need when you need it-scaling up or down and in or out-and you only pay for what you use.

As your business priorities change, leveraging usage-based licensing through FortiFlex makes it easier to procure and deploy the necessary security solutions quickly, eliminating long buying cycles. There's also no need to pre-plan your purchase and risk overestimating or underestimating your requirements.

New Fortinet Services and Solutions Available through FortiFlex

The FortiFlex program offers a wide range of Fortinet solutions and services. It's easy to manage everything from a single console, and users are billed in 24-hour increments, so you can adjust your needs daily.

Use Fortinet Pay-As-You-Go Licensing in Your Preferred Cloud Platform

In addition to purchasing FortiFlex credits through Fortinet, you can also take advantage of FortiFlex directly through your preferred cloud platform. You can buy FortiFlex credits via Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure, and Oracle Cloud through marketplace private offers on these platforms. When acquired through marketplace private offers, FortiFlex can help you draw down against your required spending.

A significant advantage that FortiFlex offers customers with minimum use commits is the ability to extend the shelf-life of those dollars. Rather than having unspent dollars forfeited when commit deadlines come due, you can transfer the value of unspent, committed dollars into FortiFlex and get up to 60 months to decide how best to use those funds to secure your cloud environment with Fortinet. Now with the expanded catalog, you have even more options regarding how to use those funds.
