Detect and Disrupt, Then Investigate and Remediate
The Fortinet Security Operations (SecOps) platform seamlessly integrates behavior-based sensors to detect and disrupt threat actors across the attack surface and along the cyber kill chain. Centralized investigation and remediation can be orchestrated, automated, and/or augmented to reduce cyber risk, cost, and operational effort.
Early Detection and Prevention
The Fortinet SecOps platform offers the broadest range of sensors that utilize AI and other advanced analytics to continuously assess device, user, file, network, email, application, cloud, log, and even dark web activity to identify signs of cyberthreats. Fabric-native interoperability fundamentally changes the security operations paradigm from “detect and respond” to “detect and disrupt,” then “investigate and respond.” It reduces cyber risk, enabling faster containment and providing more time for thorough investigation and comprehensive remediation.
Intelligent SOC Automation
Even as these sensors detect and disrupt threat actor activity, alerts and information are funneled for centrally orchestrated or automated investigation and remediation, powered by the FortiAI GenAI assistant. Key functions include correlation, enrichment, analysis, triage, validation, and response. In addition to Fabric-native integration that enables deeper visibility and a wider range of actions, 500+ connectors enable the platform to ingest telemetry from and command multivendor security infrastructure.
