What it does
FortiClient is a modular Fortinet endpoint agent with VPN and ZTNA access, centralized management and additional endpoint-security components.
FortiClient is an organization-managed access client, not an independent consumer VPN service. The product page describes encrypted VPN and ZTNA tunnels with central management through FortiClient EMS and integration with FortiSASE. That fits a company already using Fortinet's access infrastructure. Begin with the module and enrollment instructions supplied by the administrator. Additional antivirus, firewall and other protections depend on the chosen edition, so a generic FortiClient download should not be assumed to include every listed module.
