The partnership signifies Fortinet’s commitment to helping service providers deliver advanced networking services while addressing their evolving needs. To support this, Fortinet recently expanded its SASE offering to provide cloud-delivered enterprise-grade protection to micro branches, solidifying its position as a comprehensive solution in the market.

Amit Jain, Executive Vice President and global Business Head of Cybersecurity at HCLTech (India), emphasized the importance of providing scalable, secure foundations for networks, especially as cloud adoption accelerates.
