Get Started
Start using ConfigSentry yourself
Most teams can begin with a manual upload in minutes. Collector-based monitoring is for teams that want repeatable, lower-touch review over time.
A simple path
What getting started looks like
You do not need to speak to sales or wait for onboarding to begin. Start with manual upload first, then add collector-based workflows only if you want repeatable lower-touch review over time.
02
Use your sign-up audit credits
Run real audits first so you can understand the workflow before buying paid credits or a license.
03
Choose how you want to continue
Buy additional audit credits for one-off review, or buy a license if you want scheduled reviews, collector-based retrieval, or continuous monitoring.
Time to first value
What rollout effort normally looks like
Manual upload starts fastest
Most teams can begin with a manual upload in minutes. No network changes are needed when you already have a FortiGate configuration export.
Collector-based review needs setup
Collector-based retrieval requires collector installation, appropriate read-only access, and whatever internal approval your environment requires.
Continuous monitoring is the lower-touch path over time
Use continuous monitoring when you want repeatable review without relying on manual exports for every audit cycle.
Security model summary
What security reviewers usually want to know first
Raw config handling
Raw FortiGate configurations are processed in memory for the audit run and removed from memory after processing. They are not retained by the platform as stored raw files or database records in the normal workflow.
Findings, reports, and audit history
Config-derived findings, scores, report metadata, and audit history records may still be retained so teams can review results later, compare posture over time, or delete them through the account workflow.
Access, deletion, and MFA
Audit results are intended for authorised account members. Multi-factor authentication helps protect access to audit results and config-derived findings, and deletion removes data from the main platform workflow even though operational backups may retain copies temporarily.
Collector locality and transport
Locally entered collector secrets are intended to remain on the collector host. Public website and collector download/upload endpoints are provided over HTTPS, while exported report encryption is a separate report-package control.
Common starting paths
Choose the route that matches your situation
I want to try a real audit first
Create an account and use your included sign-up credits to run point-in-time audits on real FortiGate configuration data.
I only need occasional reviews
Stay with the audit-credit model and buy more credits whenever you need additional one-off audits.
I need ongoing visibility
Move into licensing when you want scheduled audits, recurring retrieval, and continuous monitoring capability.
I want to understand the product first
Review the product overview if you want to understand the scope, approach, and audit model before signing up.
I need to choose the right workflow
Use the audit models page to compare manual upload, collector-based retrieval, and continuous monitoring before you create a longer-term process.
I want to compare the commercial options
Use the pricing page to compare one-off credits with licensing before you decide how to continue.
What the trial includes
A practical way to evaluate the platform
Every new user account includes 2 free audit credits on sign up so you can run an initial FortiGate firewall audit straight away.
During the current free trial period, additional zero-cost trial credits and trial licenses are also available.
The free trial offer ends on 30 September 2026.
Before you begin
Know what you are trying to achieve
The product works best when you already know whether you are validating a point-in-time configuration, using collector-based retrieval, or aiming for longer-term visibility.
If you are still comparing options, review pricing and the product overview first, then create an account when you are ready to test it properly.
ConfigSentry is designed to reduce manual config review effort and help teams prioritise the findings most worth fixing first.
