Network Security

We manage your Fortinet estate
and unify it with your Microsoft SOC.

Managed Fortinet firewalls, switches, and wireless — on-premises and in Azure — integrated with Microsoft Sentinel and Defender XDR. One SOC view across every layer. Platinum Fortinet Partner. Certified engineers. 24x7 operations.

From 47 devices to 3 clusters. Real transformation, not theory.

We consolidated a sprawling legacy Cisco network — 47 devices across multiple sites — into 3 Fortinet FortiGate clusters with unified management, integrated with Sentinel for real-time correlation with identity and endpoint signals.

Your fully managed Fortinet security estate

As a Platinum Fortinet Partner with certified engineers, we deploy, configure, and manage the complete Fortinet stack. Hardware, subscriptions, lifecycle — all included.

FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls

On-premises and Azure virtual appliances. Deep packet inspection, intrusion prevention, SSL inspection, and advanced threat protection. Centrally managed via FortiManager for consistent policy across your entire estate.

FortiSwitch Managed Switches

Seamless integration with FortiGate for unified policy from the network edge. Enhanced visibility over wired traffic. Simplified segmentation and access control.

FortiAP Wireless Access Points

Secure, high-performance wireless managed through your FortiGate. Consistent security policies across wired and wireless. Advanced intrusion detection.

Hardware Lifecycle Management

Capacity planning, performance monitoring, firmware management, and end-to-end RMA. We ensure your security infrastructure stays current, supported, and scalable.

Fortinet 360 Protection — included in every deployment

Every GMS-managed firewall is backed by FortiGuard Labs' threat intelligence services. Real-time protection against the latest threats, powered by a global security research network.

Intrusion Prevention (IPS)

Proactive defence against known exploits, malware, and application vulnerabilities.

Web Filtering

Granular control over web access. Block malicious sites, enforce acceptable use policies.

Anti-Virus / Anti-Malware

Real-time protection against viruses, ransomware, and spyware at the network edge.

Application Control

Identify and control thousands of applications. Prevent misuse. Secure critical services.

FortiSandbox Cloud

Zero-day threat analysis. Suspicious files detonated in a secure environment before they reach your network.

IOC Detection

Proactive identification of Indicators of Compromise — detecting subtle signs of breach before damage.

Anti-Spam

Robust protection against email-borne threats at the network perimeter, including phishing and BEC.

FortiCare Premium Support

Direct Fortinet TAC access, fully managed by GMS. We handle the escalation — not your team.

FortiConverter

Expert migration from legacy vendors (Cisco, Palo Alto, SonicWall) to Fortinet. Rules, policies, and objects translated.

Fortinet + Microsoft Unified

360-degree protection. One unified view.

Every FortiGuard service feeds intelligence into a single operational picture. IPS blocks exploits. Sandbox detonates zero-days. Web filtering enforces policy. Application control governs access. And every signal flows into your Sentinel SOC for cross-domain correlation.

This isn't a stack of disconnected tools. It's an integrated defence platform operated by specialists who know both the Fortinet and Microsoft ecosystems.

Hybrid network security: on-premises and Azure

FortiGate on Azure

As your infrastructure extends to Azure, we deploy certified FortiGate virtual appliances directly in your Azure subscriptions. Hub-and-spoke topology, Azure Route Tables with UDRs, site-to-site VPN, and Azure Virtual WAN integration — all managed by our team.

  • Certified FortiGate NVAs in Azure
  • Hub-and-spoke for Landing Zones
  • Azure Route Tables + UDR integration
  • Site-to-site VPN (on-prem ↔ Azure)
  • Consistent policy across hybrid estate
  • Azure Virtual WAN integration

SD-WAN

Replace expensive MPLS-only topologies with intelligent, application-aware routing across MPLS, broadband, and 5G connections. Automatic failover. QoS for critical apps. Cost-effective resilience.

  • Application-aware traffic routing
  • Multi-path WAN (MPLS + broadband + 5G)
  • Automatic failover
  • QoS for VoIP, video, and critical apps
  • Branch-to-cloud optimisation

Unified with your Microsoft SOC

Network security data in isolation is noise. We bridge Fortinet's deep network insights with Microsoft's security ecosystem — giving you one view, one incident queue, and automated response across every domain.

Sentinel Ingestion

All FortiGate logs stream into Sentinel via CEF/Syslog connector. Complete visibility over network events alongside identity, endpoint, and email signals.

Microsoft Sentinel · CEF Connector · Log Analytics

Custom Analytics

GMS-developed KQL analytics rules tailored to your environment. Detect network anomalies, brute force attempts, C2 callbacks, and lateral movement patterns.

KQL Analytics · Custom Detections · Threat Intelligence

Cross-Domain Correlation

Network events correlated with Entra ID sign-ins, Defender for Endpoint alerts, and Intune compliance. A compromised identity + unusual network traffic = automatic escalation.

Defender XDR · Unified Incident Queue · Cross-signal correlation

Automated Response

SOAR playbooks for common threats: block IP, isolate host, notify SOC, create ticket. Consistent, fast, and auditable — no manual intervention for known patterns.

Managed operations — we run it, you benefit

24x7 Monitoring

Round-the-clock alerting and triage. When a threat appears, we respond — not your IT team.

Firmware & Patching

Security patches and firmware updates applied during maintenance windows. No exposure to known CVEs.

Rule Reviews

Regular firewall rule optimisation. Remove stale rules, tighten overly permissive policies, reduce attack surface.

Change Management

All changes go through approval workflows. Full audit trail. No undocumented modifications.

Capacity Planning

Proactive performance monitoring and capacity forecasting. Hardware refreshes before they become bottlenecks.

Monthly Reports

Security posture, incident summary, compliance status, and recommendations delivered to your CISO.

Complete your security posture

Network secured. Now prove it all to the auditor.

With users, servers, cloud workloads, and network perimeter all protected, GMS provides daily evidence and automated compliance reporting across your entire Microsoft estate. One framework. One audit.
