Fortinet and Alcide combine FortiGate edge protection with continuous security for Kubernetes, containers, microservices, and service meshes across multicloud and multicluster environments. FortiGate inspects north-south traffic entering and leaving cloud infrastructure, while Alcide analyzes east-west traffic between workloads, detects behavioral anomalies and known signatures, and uses FortiGuard intelligence to identify activity such as cryptomining and port scanning.
