National Institute of Securities Markets (NISM) is a public trust, an educational initiative of Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) with the objective of enhancing the quality of securities market in the country through knowledge-based interventions. National Institute of Securities Markets has a 70-Acres campus at Patalganga, a location around 40 km away from Vashi on Mumbai-Pune highway.

Currently, NISM is using two firewalls (FortiGate 1500D) installed in 2017 for network security purposes. FortiGate 1500D firewall devices are configured in High availability mode as an active-passive group. All LAN and WAN interfaces are configured in both the primary and secondary firewalls. Firewall also performs load balancing for two ILLs (Internet Leased Line) at campus. It also holds different User groups, content filtering, bandwidth capping Policies and VPN tunnelling for remote access from other NISM offices. NISM wants to switch the existing firewalls arrangement (FortiGate 1500D) with another Fortinet model i.e. Fortigate-600E.
