Additional Functionality
Strong User Identity with Two-factor Authentication
FortiAuthenticator extends two-factor authentication 
capability to multiple FortiGate appliances and to third party 
solutions that support RADIUS or LDAP authentication. 
User identity information from FortiAuthenticator combined 
with authentication information from FortiToken ensures 
that only authorized individuals are granted access to your 
organization’s sensitive information. This additional layer of 
security greatly reduces the possibility of data leaks while 
helping companies meet audit requirements associated 
with government and business privacy regulations. 
FortiAuthenticator supports the widest range of tokens 
possible to suit your user requirements. With the physical 
time based FortiToken-200, FortiToken Mobile (for iOS and 
Android), e-mail and SMS tokens, FortiAuthenticator has 
a token options for all users and scenarios. Two-factor 
authentication can be used to control access to applications 
such as FortiGate management, SSL and IPSEC VPN, 
Wireless Captive Portal login and third party, RADIUS 
compliant networking equipment.
To streamline local user management, FortiAuthenticator 
includes user self-registration and password recovery features.
Enterprise Certificate Based VPNs
Site-to-site VPNs often provide access direct to the heart of 
the enterprise network from many remote locations. Often 
these VPNs are secured simply by a preshared key, which, 
if compromised, could give access to the whole network. 
FortiOS support certificate-based VPNs; however, use of 
certificate secured VPNs has been limited, primarily due 
to the overhead and complexity introduced by certificate 
management. FortiAuthenticator removes this overhead 
involved by streamlining the bulk deployment of certificates 
for VPN use in a FortiGate environment by cooperating with 
FortiManager for the configuration and automating the secure 
certificate delivery via the SCEP protocol.
For client-based certificate VPNs, certificates can be created 
and stored on the FortiToken300 USB Certificate store. This 
secure, pin protected certificate store is compatible with 
FortiClient and can be used to enhance the security of client 
VPN connections in conjunction with FortiAuthenticator.
RADIUS Accounting Login 
In a network which utilizes RADIUS authentication (e.g. wireless or VPN 
authentication), RADIUS Accounting can be used as a user identification method. 
This information is used to trigger user login and to provide IP and group 
information, removing the need for a second tier of authentication.
Additional Features & Benefits
RADIUS and LDAP User Authentication
Local Authentication database with RADIUS and LDAP interfaces centralizes user management.
Wide Range of Strong 
Authentication Methods
Strong authentication provided by FortiAuthenticator via hardware tokens, e-mail, SMS, e-mail and 
digital certificates help to enhance password security and mitigate the risk of password disclosure, 
replay or brute forcing.

Password Recovery
Reduces the need for administrator intervention by allowing the user to perform their own registration 
and resolve their own password issues, which also improves user satisfaction.
Integration with Active Directory  
and LDAP 
Integration with existing directory simplifies deployment, speeds up installation times and reutilizes 
existing development.
Certificate Management
Streamlined certificate management enables rapid, cost-effective deployment of certificate-based 
authentication methods such as VPN.
