COMPANY NEWS: Fortinet®, the global cybersecurity leader driving the convergence of networking and security, has announced the expansion of generative AI (GenAI) capabilities across its product portfolio with the launch of two new integrations with FortiAI, Fortinet’s artificial intelligence (AI)-powered security assistant that uses GenAI to guide, simplify, and automate security analyst activities.
John Maddison, chief marketing officer, Fortinet, said, “Our commitment to AI innovation is reflected in our expansion of generative AI, which now enhances seven different products across our portfolio. By integrating FortiAI in such a broad range of solutions, we’re equipping our customers with powerful, adaptive tools that transform how they manage and respond to cyberthreats. As cyber risks continue to grow, we’ll continue to empower our customers with solutions that streamline security processes, improve decision-making, and bolster resilience against evolving threats.”
New FortiAI integrations
FortiAI for FortiNDR Cloud is designed to enable threat hunters to easily view detections and observations that correlate to their queries. Security analysts can query FortiAI and easily understand the FortiNDR Cloud coverage capabilities against new and emerging threats, attacker tactics and techniques, and specific vulnerabilities. This streamlines the search process and enhances analyst performance, allowing threat hunters to understand their capabilities against attackers better.
FortiAI for Lacework FortiCNAPP focuses on helping security operations centre (SOC) teams more quickly understand alerts, including guidance on remediation and corrective actions. Using natural language queries, teams can easily clarify the reason behind the alerts that are generated, understand the risk, such as how an attacker could compromise the system, gain step-by-step guidance on how to investigate and respond, and streamline the remediation of issues with syntactically correct code.
FortiAI across Fortinet’s portfolio
This expansion builds on Fortinet’s commitment to AI innovation in cybersecurity, following other GenAI integrations, including:
- FortiAI for FortiAnalyzer to provide real-time threat analysis, prioritisation, and automated response.
- FortiAI for FortiManager to more easily build network configuration scripts, perform troubleshooting, and automate remediation vulnerabilities and network issues.
- FortiAI for FortiSIEM to provide contextual intelligence and recommendations for investigating and responding to security alerts.
- FortiAI for FortiSOAR to guide and optimise threat investigations, remediation activities, and automate playbook creation.
- FortiAI for FortiDLP to summarise and contextualise data associated with observed high-risk activity.
