Which protocol does FortiSASE use for secure communication during onboarding?

FortiSASE utilizes AD VPN for secure communication during the onboarding process. The Active Directory Virtual Private Network (AD VPN) is designed to establish a secure and private tunnel for data transmission, ensuring that sensitive information remains protected during the setup of the FortiSASE service. This protocol helps to maintain confidentiality and integrity by encrypting communication, preventing unauthorized access.

While HTTP/2 is a newer version of the HTTP protocol aimed at improving website speed and performance, it doesn’t specifically cater to secure communication in the context of FortiSASE onboarding. FTP is primarily used for file transfers and lacks the security features required for onboarding sensitive data. SIP (Session Initiation Protocol), mainly used for initiating and managing communication sessions such as voice calls, is not relevant to the onboarding process of FortiSASE. Therefore, AD VPN stands out as the most fitting choice for establishing secure communication during that phase.
