Who should take this NSE 5 - FortiManager course?

For starters, only network security professionals who work with Fortinet security devices will benefit immediately from this NSE 5 - FortiManager course.

What certification should you consider after taking this course in NSE 5 - FortiManager?

This course applies narrowly to Fortinet technology, and specifically the use and administration of Fortinet security appliances through the centralized control hub, FortiManager.
