Description

The Fortinet FortiWeb FWB-400E is a purpose-built Web Application Firewall (WAF) appliance designed to guard enterprise web applications and APIs at the network edge. By combining machine learning-driven application profiling with robust threat intelligence, this appliance delivers precise, scalable protection against both known exploits and evolving zero-day threats—without sacrificing performance. It is engineered to help organizations maintain regulatory compliance, protect sensitive data, and ensure uninterrupted access to critical web services in today’s complex, multi-cloud environments.

  • ML-driven application profiling for adaptive security: FortiWeb automatically models normal traffic patterns for each application, creating risk-aware policies that evolve as your apps change, reducing false positives while keeping legitimate traffic fast and secure.
  • Comprehensive Web App and API protection: Defends public and private web applications and APIs against SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), command injection, path traversal, and other OWASP Top 10 risks, with signature-based detection complemented by behavior-aware anomaly analysis.
  • Advanced API security and bot mitigation: Protects API endpoints with schema validation, rate limiting, OAuth/token validation, and specialized bot mitigation that distinguishes good traffic from automated abuse, helping reduce fraud and load on backend systems.
  • TLS/SSL inspection and secure traffic management: Integrates TLS inspection and SSL offloading to secure encrypted traffic while maintaining high throughput and low latency, with flexible encryption policies and centralized certificate management.
  • Flexible, compliance-driven deployment: On-premises deployment with high availability (HA) options, centralized management, and seamless Fortinet Security Fabric integration to support PCI DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, and other regulatory mandates through detailed logging, tamper-evident records, and auditable controls.

how to install Fortinet FortiWeb FWB-400E

  • Plan your deployment by identifying protected web applications and API endpoints, and determine network segmentation to optimize traffic flow to the FortiWeb appliance.
  • Install the FortiWeb FWB-400E in a secure data center or edge location, and connect power and L2/L3 network interfaces as recommended by your network architecture.
  • Access the management interface through the initial console or a secure out-of-band path. Log in with the default administrator account and immediately change the password to a strong, unique credential.
  • Apply the latest firmware or software image and activate the license for FortiWeb features, including WAF protection, API security, and bot mitigation capabilities.
  • Configure network settings for management access, including management VLANs, administrative IPs, and role-based access controls (RBAC) to restrict administrative privileges.
  • Set up logging and storage targets (local or remote) and enable integration with Fortinet Security Fabric for centralized visibility and faster threat correlation.
  • Define protected applications and APIs. Create ML-driven profiling policies and deploy baseline security rules to begin blocking suspicious requests while allowing legitimate traffic.
  • Enable TLS inspection and SSL offloading with appropriate certificate management. Configure encryption policies in line with organizational security standards.
  • Create WAF rules and API protection policies, including rate limits, IP reputation filters, and bot mitigation controls tailored to your environment.
  • Enable High Availability (HA) if required, designating primary and secondary units for seamless failover and uninterrupted protection.
  • Test the deployment with controlled traffic to verify policy behavior, performance, and logging. Fine-tune anomaly thresholds to balance security and user experience.
  • Establish a routine maintenance plan, including automatic updates, regular backup of configuration and logs, and periodic policy reviews to adapt to new threats.
