We have 300 end users, and nearly all of them work remotely. We’ve just set up new SIEM tool but we have a problem. Since people work remote and they don’t even remember to connect VPN, we won’t be able to collect instant LOG. We are also having issues with deploying group policies etc. since they don’t connect VPN often. I wonder is there any way to force users to connect VPN to use their laptops or go to web etc. Even if there is a way to do it, can the firewall (Fortigate-90G) handle 250-300 users connected to VPN at the same time? Or any other solutions?<\/p>\n
