Partnership offering customers next-generation AI-enabled managed firewall service

Recognising that security threats are complex, ever-evolving, and heavily on the rise globally, SLT-MOBITEL Enterprise has expanded its partnership with Fortinet, a global leader in cybersecurity solutions, providing multifunctional and comprehensive protection through next-generation AI-enabled managed firewall services for enterprise and government customers. The Fortinet Pay-As-You-Grow model is offered locally in Sri Lanka by the dynamic value-added distributor, EGUARDIAN.

The collaboration was marked by a formal agreement signed by Janaka Abeysinghe, Chief Executive Officer of SLT, and Mafaz Fahrid, Chief Executive Officer of EGUARDIAN, with representatives from both organisations present at the event.

The solutions are provided as a service, and depending on the features requested, SLT-MOBITEL Enterprise will enable the services based on a customer’s requirements. Thereby, customers are geared towards any advanced threat protection tailored to modern attack techniques while simplifying their operations, boosting efficiency, and integrating with the broader security ecosystem, giving enterprises stronger, more adaptive security.

The partnership offers a host of benefits for customers through the next-generation AI-enabled managed firewall service, such as ensuring a comprehensive and layered defence strategy against cyber threats and safeguarding critical assets and sensitive information. Importantly, in today’s threat landscape, organisations face the growing menace of zero-day attacks – sophisticated threats that occur suddenly and exploit previously unknown vulnerabilities. However, next-generation AI-enabled managed firewalls provide a critical line of defence.
