India, Dec. 30 -- FortiGate VM on NVIDIA BlueField marks a shift in how security is delivered in AI-driven and private cloud data centres, with core protection functions moving from host systems into the infrastructure fabric itself.

The integrated solution runs Fortinet's virtual cloud firewall directly on the NVIDIA BlueField-3 data processing unit, enabling networking and security services to operate independently of the host CPU. This approach is designed to support high-throughput, latency-sensitive workloads common in AI factories and modern private cloud environments.

As organisations modernise data centres to support AI, edge and private cloud workloads, traditional host-based security models are increasingly challenged by perfo...
