Mitigating Today’s Threats with AI-Powered FortiGuard Security
The threat landscape continues to evolve with sophisticated threat actors and their techniques, tactics and procedures (TTPs). Threat actors are leveraging offensive automation, and are beginning to weaponize artificial intelligence to penetrate organizations with unprecedented stealth and speed. As a result, the mean time to detect (TTD) and respond (TTR) to these threats is too long. Lengthy open windows of attack cause increased damage via revenue & shareholder loss, as well as brand reputation. To combat this growing threat, an AI-powered fabric is required to shorten the time to detect & respond to these threats, while augmenting existing resources to reduce overhead & resource strain. This session will walk through the FortiGuard powered AI ecosystem vs. attacks, to show how to effectively manage the threat and reduce risk.
