This chapter describes how the FortiGate unit’s features can help your organization to be compliant with PCI DSS. Requirements that the FortiGate cannot enforce need to be met through organization policies with some means determined for auditing compliance.
Be sure to read the section, “Wireless guidelines”, below. Even if your organization does not use wireless networking, PCI DSS requires you to verify periodically that wireless networking has not been introduced into the CDE.
