FortiWeb Certified

Congratulations to FullProxy Consultant, Stephen Mellon, for passing the NSE 6 Network Security Specialist FortiWeb exam today. In our quest to become the only Fortinet Expert Level Partner in Scotland, Stephen has risen to the challenge of completing one of the last two NSE 6 level qualifications that stand in the way of us and the next Partner tier.

FortiWeb is a web application firewall (WAF) that protects web applications and APIs from attacks that target known and unknown exploits and helps maintain compliance with regulations. Using machine learning to model each application, FortiWeb defends applications from known vulnerabilities and zero-day threats. High-performance physical and virtual appliances and containers deploy on-site or in the public cloud to serve any size of the organization — from small businesses to service providers, carriers, and large enterprises.

The Fortinet NSE 6 — FortiWeb 6.4 exam is part of the NSE 6 Network Security Specialist Program and certifies that the successful candidate has mastered important knowledge and skills to deploy, configure, administer, manage and monitor FortiWeb devices to protect web application servers from threats. This exam tests a candidate’s knowledge and skills related to basic to advanced configuration, day-to-day management, and using FortiWeb to protect web applications from threats.

I had the opportunity to speak at Futurescot Digital Scotland in November last year alongside our partner, Fortinet . The event was a fantastic opportunity to delve into the latest innovations shaping the Scottish public sector from a digital perspective. One of the key themes of my talk was Zero Trust adoption.
Infrastructure modernisation is no longer a luxury—it's imperative. For organisations relying on legacy systems, the transition from F5s iSeries to rSeries represents more than a hardware upgrade; it's a critical step in maintaining technological resilience and competitive advantage. 
As the CEO of FullProxy, I've always believed that staying ahead of technological disruptions is increasingly the most pressing concern for businesses and public sector organisations across the globe – not just from a cyber security perspective, but as a fundamental safeguard against business interruption.
Peak shopping seasons like Black Friday and Cyber Monday are digital pressure tests that separate robust businesses from vulnerable ones. Modern enterprise infrastructure must go beyond basic load balancing, creating adaptive systems that anticipate and manage extreme traffic fluctuations.
