Feature Request: Identify users on mac,chrome and windows to assign policies properly.
Every other content filter I have ever used Lets you install an agent on the client for the purposes of identifying to the content filter who the user is.
Content filters: Lightspeed systems, Securly, Go Guardian. You get the point.
Currently the only way fortinet does this is server side and it's windows only. You have to install software on the domain controller.
Our environment is mixed, we have windows,chromebooks, mac. This is pretty common now.
The solution is simple.
Eliminate FSSO ( its far overcomplex for its simple goal)
windows : create a simple .msi that reports the username at login to the fortigate
Mac: Create a dmg mac program that reports the username at login to the fortigate
Chromebook: Create a chrome extension that reports the username at login to the fortigate
Without this feature content filtering is pretty useless. If you can't identify users on most platforms and assign different policies
what is even the point of using your content filtering.
I have expressed this request multiple times to multiple people and nobody listens.
Fortinet Does not listen to customers. I got very political answers or just the run around.
