The FortiGate authentication umbrella has been expanded from just user authentication (or user identity) to encompass device identification and client reputation. As well, endpoint control and the vulnerability scanner have become part of FortiOS 5.0 user and device detection, identification and authentication.
Endpoint control and vulnerability scanner changes are described in this chapter. For information about device identification, see
“FortiOS and BYOD”. For information about client reputation, see
“Client Reputation”.
