In this session, Derek Manky, Fortinet’s VP of Global Threat Intelligence, and Michael Daniel, President and CEO of Cyber Threat Alliance, will discuss how enterprise leaders can adapt to increasingly sophisticated attacks, such as nation-state threats and supply chain vulnerabilities. They will share insights and realistic strategies for establishing on proactive defense strategies, risk management, and the role of innovation in combating these threats. 

Robert May, Fortinet’s EVP of Technology and Product Management, shares his vision of a modern security operations center and Fortinet’s continued innovation across security operations. He will discuss Fortinet’s current SecOps strategy and demonstrate how AI will continue to shape Fortinet’s technology, as well as addressing how Fortinet can continue to accelerate innovation and outpace today’s threat landscape. The session will include a demo of the coming FortiAnalyzer Agentic AI capabilities.

In this fireside chat, Richard Henderson will share his experience and insights on a range of topics, including securing a large-scale healthcare provider, technology adoption, SOC operations, and more.

Fortinet research reveals that 74% of organizations struggle with alert overload and fragmented tools. How can you jumpstart SecOps without adding complexity? Discover how a unified data lake, built-in SOC Automation, and embedded AI underpins modern operations—enabling threat response at the speed of AI across endpoints, networks, and cloud.

- Deploy turnkey SecOps with faster detection and smarter response—all from a single platform
- Streamline workflows and scale without adding headcount
- Watch a live demo of autonomous AI capabilities in action

Securing distributed endpoints remains a critical challenge today, exacerbated by fragmented security, siloed management, and gaps in real-time threat intelligence. This session will explore how Fortinet is defining the next generation of endpoint security, focusing on:

-  Deep integration with security and networking for unified protection
-  Support for largest ranges of platforms including legacy systems, mobile devices and more                        
-  Added visibility into attack surface 

How do security teams find threats post-exploitation that have bypassed perimeter defenses and may be lurking on their complex networks? The answer – leverage continuous network monitoring, deception, and AI to detect attacker activity. During this session you will see a live demo of how to combine network detection and response (NDR) with deception technology, to: 

- Build in-depth investigations to find attacker TTPs like command and control (C2) and data exfiltration 
- Catch attackers as they target your resources
- Monitor every device on the network passively, without impacting performance or availability

The advanced enterprise SOC faces determined attackers across a dynamic attack surface and a daily workload of time-critical tasks. SIEM and SOAR together provide the centralized threat detection, incident management, and AI-driven automation needed to keep up with the workload and keep attackers at bay.  This session will explore how these solutions work individually and together to support effective and efficient SOC and NOC/IT operations. Topics include:

- SIEM and SOAR overview and customer use cases
- The value of GenAI in simplifying and acclerating analyst activities
- Day-in-the-life demonstration of FortiSIEM and its new native SOAR automation capability

SecOps teams today are stretched thin, leading to security coverage gaps during weekends, holidays, and after business hours—precisely when threat actors are most likely to strike. According to Fortinet’s 2024 Skills Gap Report, 57% of organizations struggle to hire qualified security personnel, making an integrated SOC augmentation approach a compelling solution. Join this fireside chat to hear from Fortinet product management leaders on how you can protect your business around the clock with continuous monitoring and threat response across endpoints, networks, and cloud environments.

Key takeaways include:

• Expert-level, always-on protection without the cost of building a full SOC
• Seamless integration across endpoint, network, and cloud security platforms

The rise in attack sophistication, driven by advances in generative AI, is prompting CISOs and SOC teams around the world to reexamine the attack kill chain, with renewed emphasis on the pre-attack stage. By mapping an organization’s attack surface from an adversary’s perspective, teams can proactively stop threats before they materialize.

Join this session to learn how FortiRecon can help you:

• Visualize your organization’s attack surface from a threat actor’s point of view
• Monitor real-time threats and reports powered by dark web intelligence
• Protect your brand, websites, and other critical digital assets
