The cyber threat landscape in changing faster than ever. Case in point: Over the past six months, FortiGuard Labs identified 10,666 new ransomware variants—twice as many compared to the previous six months. And with cybercriminals increasingly using or mimicking legitimate system tools and activities, siloed security products can’t keep up. Join us to learn:

The latest threats our analysts see, and how you can protect your enterprise;

Why 75% of organizations are consolidating their cybersecurity vendors; and

How Fortinet helps organizations just like yours defend against the latest threats.

A Visionary Approach to Cybersecurity

A recent survey found that more than half of organizations (52%) believe security operations are more difficult today than in years past. The evolving threat landscape, the expanded attack surface and the volume and complexity of security alerts all contribute to this growing challenge.

This Webinar will offer practical recommendations on how to:


Apply artificial intelligence and other advanced technologies to effectively address the accelerating threat landscape


Integrate and automate security across multiple products securing the expanded digital attack surface


Augment in-house staff with specialized outsourced services

How to Enhance Your Security Posture by Consolidating Vendors

Learn why inline sandbox and deception tools are must-haves. Every organization’s attack surface is constantly expanding, and threat actors are taking full advantage by launching more sophisticated attacks. That’s why inline sandboxing and deception technologies—powered by artificial intelligence (AI)—are essential. These tools offer organizations:


Real-time protection against Zero Day and unknown threats


Real-time verdicts and actionable insights


Automated and coordinated security against the most sophisticated attack tactics


Reduced network risk exposure and security operations overhead

Join us and learn about how deception and sandbox technologies enhance security defenses, providing real-time protection against a growing list of threats.

Ransomware attacks are growing more sophisticated and complex by the day, and the “spray and pray” attacks now originating in Russia are no different.

Join Jon Nguyen-Duy, Fortinet Field CISO, and Brook Chelmo, Senior. Product Strategist, as they discuss the latest data coming from the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network regarding ransomware activities in Russia.  

They will share insights on the evolving situation and offer strategies and tips for protecting and defending your organization’s assets from these ransomware strains.

Stopping Spray- and- Pray Nation- State Ransomware Attacks

Hear from an industry analyst and a Fortinet customer about the benefits of adopting Fortinet Security Operations solutions
Many Fortinet customers have discovered the advantages to deploying multiple components from their security operations portfolio of products and shared their experiences with TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group as part of an Economic Validation analysis.

Come learn how Fortinet’s customers are making significant improvements in their ability to detect and disrupt earlier in the attack chain, while also increasing their overall visibility and improving their time to remediate.

During this session, we’ll be joined by David Finger, VP of Product Marketing at Fortinet, Jon Oltsik, Distinguished Analyst and Fellow at Enterprise Strategy Group, and Jay Larson, CIO of Summit Healthcare. Together, they will share:

How you can proactively detect early-stage cybercriminal activity
Tips on accelerating incident response time
How you can quantify the potential benefits of SOC automation to your organization
Don't miss this opportunity to improve your ability to detect and disrupt threat actors earlier in the attack chain while increasing your overall visibility and improving time to remediate.

Cyber Threat Detection and Response: From Weeks to Minutes

For ransomware operators to successfully encrypt data they first need to deliver code to target devices. In order to find those devices, attackers rely on internal and external reconnaissance to map an organization to identify and exfiltrate the data they’re after. If organizations had the ability to stop encryption software, or ransomware code, from entering and installing on their endpoints and successfully encrypting data, ransomware operators can be thwarted. Join this session to learn how you can integrate artificial intelligence across your digital attack surface to detect ransomware, even brand new variants, and prevent it from encrypting your sensitive data. We’ll also do a live demo to show real examples of ransomware/ransomware detection in action.

Ransomware Protection: Across the Attack Surface and Along the Kill Chain

Know your risks and prepare for what's coming
Concerned about ransomware and other cyber threats that repeatedly make the news? We’ve got your back.

In this webinar, we’re sharing cyber threat activity that our experts saw in the second half of 2022, making predictions for 2023, and offering proactive steps you can take today to protect your organization against the ever-changing threat landscape.

A Deep Dive into the Global Threat Landscape

Join Max Zeumer, Product Marketing Director, and Jon Speer, Director of Product Marketing, to learn about Fortinet's integrated SOC Automation model across every size and stage of maturity an organization is at and the best ways to implement and scale. In this session you will discover why automation is critical to improving the effectiveness of your security operations, limiting complexity that often creates gaps that are exploited by threat actors, and how the speed of activities and response are vital to rapidly scoping, adapting and countering sophisticated attacks before it's too late.

Building a Flexible and Extensible SOC Analytics Automation Platform

Ransomware is the vehicle of choice for hackers to hone their skills and to also earn a living. This session will cover how advanced attacks contain numerous evasion tactics and are deployed from fileless scripts designed to land on the endpoint, deactivate or bypass the EDR, spread to other systems, extract data, and encrypt everything upon detection. This session will cover how the industry is responding to the ransomware crisis, particularly how Fortinet is providing a way to reduce the attack surface of the endpoint, detecting, defusing, and automatically remediating the effects of an attack using FortiEDR and ForitXDR.

Stop Nation-State Ransomware

When was the last time your playbooks were updated? When was the last time your peers outside of Info Security were engaged regarding their role in a cyber incident? These are but a few of the questions we’ll review as part of the people and process variables that go into not only creating but and maintaining a strong cyber security plan.

Getting Prepared and Calling for Help
