My role
User Interface/Graphic Designer 3
I worked in the Research and Development department from 2012 to 2015. I crafted user interface elements for software products on iOS, macOS, Android, and Windows. Delivered high-fidelity mockups and graphical assets to facilitate user interface implementation for our Software Engineers, led by various Project Managers. More about me.
FortiManager
Centralized security management system
Internet of things (IoT) and cloud force networks are evolving while many solutions with varying management tools strain security teams. FortiManager provides visibility across the entire Fortinet Security Fabric and manages Fortinet’s security and networking devices.
The Fortinet Security Fabric is a framework connecting our clients' security devices together for effective, efficient, and comprehensive security.

Centralized FortiAP management
As the WiFi business continues to gain momentum, we're adding this module to help users centrally manage all of their AP's (access points) in an enterprise deployment. Users can drill-down to individual APs and clients.
FortiOS
Network security operating system
The FortiOS enables the Security Fabric, letting our clients control the security and networking capabilities in all their Fortinet Security Fabric elements with one OS.
The FortiOS GUI redesign improves visibility into our clients' network traffic. I produced visual mockups to view traffic by source, destination, application, threat, interface, device, policy, and country.
