Fortinet announced a new collaboration with NVIDIA to deliver isolated infrastructure acceleration for AI factories by running FortiGate VM directly on NVIDIA BlueField-3 data processing units. The integrated solution offloads firewalling, segmentation and zero-trust policy enforcement from host CPUs to the DPU, enabling higher throughput, lower latency and stronger isolation for AI, private cloud and edge workloads without impacting GPU performance. Fortinet said the approach embeds security directly into the data center fabric, improving multitenant isolation and simplifying consistent policy enforcement while scaling to AI-driven traffic demands. The solution is supported starting with FortiOS 7.6.3 and is aimed at enterprises, cloud service providers and telco environments building high-performance, AI-centric infrastructure.
