Introduction

FortiGate Cloud is a cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) offering a range of management, reporting, and analytics for FortiGate next generation firewalls. FortiGate Cloud simplifies the initial deployment, setup, and ongoing management of FortiGate with SD-WAN functions, FortiSwitch, FortiAP, and FortiExtender with zero-touch provisioning, providing you with visibility of your entire deployment.

With FortiGate Cloud, you can do the following:

• Manage FortiGate and FortiWifi devices, including configuration, backup, firmware upgrade, and running scripts
• Use Remote Access to easily connect to a device without physical connection
• Run full web, event, and traffic analysis on your FortiGates
• Review different types of past-date logs from your FortiGates
• Create, schedule, and customize a full range of reports
• Receive email alerts on device and network events as configured

To add subaccounts and subaccount users under your primary account, you can upgrade your regular account to a multitenancy account. See Multitenancy.
