FortiGate Firewall Security Testing
Hello,
Can you recommend some basic/advance tests to apply on the Firewall after configuring it, to ensure that everything is working properly.
Thank you,

If nothing is configured, what would you like to test?
The hardware test can be done at any point. Look for HQIP test, there are articles describing how to perform it (depending on the unit model)

What are you trying to test? If you are concerned about throughput, iPerf3 or OpenSpeedTest are my preferred software.
If you are trying to test the UTM features, it kinda depends on what you actually have configured.
I like this guide for IPS: https://yurisk.info/2020/07/26/fortigate-how-to-verify-and-test-if-ips-is-working/

Hello BKR,
Like johnathan has mentioned, if it is regarding the UTM's you can follow this article to test the Antivirus profile and checking the security event logs: https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/7.6.0/administration-guide/315155/testing-an-antivirus-...
