Who the fuck is making a Firewall appliance with windows software on it. Some *nix or BSD or custom bare metal kernel is what a firewall should be. You have to have very low level access to properly secure traffic on a network. Microsoft often breaks the OSINT Framework ffs, I'd never trust them as a firewall.

I guess you haven't used Azure much?

I'm referring to Fortigate inside of azure, basically it's a Fortigate but it is a VM on the azure hosts in your virtual space inside the azure cloud. The MS global network that is the Azure cloud systems is pretty cool in lots of ways. Just MS is an evil empire and it sucks that they drive the world

Fortigate is not a windows kernel

How do you feel about companies that use windows server as a router and VPN solution?
