Case Study: Advocacia-Geral da União strengthens remote access security and cuts network costs with Fortinet

Advocacia-Geral da União secures remote access for 14,000 employees and saves R$1.5 million a year with Fortinet

The Advocacia-Geral da União (AGU), the Brazilian Attorney General's Office, faced the challenge of providing secure remote network access to its 14,000 employees across 150+ locations while protecting highly sensitive legal data. To address this, they partnered with Fortinet to modernize their security infrastructure and reduce costs associated with their traditional network architecture.

Fortinet implemented a solution utilizing FortiSASE for secure remote access and Fortinet Secure SD-WAN alongside Next-Generation Firewalls for end-to-end protection. This provided secure global access to internal resources and was managed through a single dashboard. The results included R$1.5 million in annual savings on network infrastructure costs, a 2-3x increase in WAN bandwidth, stronger data protection in compliance with regulations, and an improved brand reputation for AGU.
