Congratulations to Diamond IT's Fortinet Security Experts

Written by Hannah Donnelly | October 1, 2020

Diamond IT takes pride in the knowledge and technical skillset of our team.  Our success is built on the talent of our people and we are commitment to the development of our employees.

Last month, 5 members of our Technical team finalised their Fortinet Security Expert journey, passing the NSE4 certification exam.

Passing the NSE4 certification exam is no small effort. The team attended an intense, week long training event, followed by several weeks of additional self-directed study and exam preparation.

The week long training event covered two core areas:

FortiGate Security

The FortiGate Security module covered how to use basic FortiGate features, including security profiles, and explored firewall policies, user authentication, SSL VPN, dial-up IPsec VPN, and how to protect your network using security profiles such as IPS, antivirus, web filtering, application control, and more. These administration fundamentals provide a solid understanding of how to implement firewall security in a corporate network.


FortiGate Infrastructure

The FortiGate Infrastructure module covered how to use advanced FortiGate networking and security. Topics included features commonly applied in complex or larger enterprise or MSSP networks, such as advanced routing, transparent mode redundant infrastructure, site-to-site IPsec VPN, SSO, web proxy, and diagnostics.

We would like to congratulate the team on their fantastic achievement. These certifications demonstrate the level of commitment and knowledge present in our technical team, ensuring our clients are protected from current and emerging Cyber threats. The completion of this training also makes Diamond IT one of the premier FortiGate partners in the Newcastle and Hunter region.
