“Cybercriminals are using sophisticated—and increasingly intelligent—tools to target vulnerable network edges resulting from digital innovation. As a result, organizations need smarter, faster security operations to combat sophisticated, organized cybercrime. FortiXDR is the only XDR solution that leverages artificial intelligence to replicate the hands-on investigation that otherwise leaves organizations playing catch up. Applied across the Security Fabric platform, it helps enterprises keep pace with today’s accelerating threat landscape, even for organizations limited by small teams and few tools.”

“We know that even experienced security professionals struggle with a range of threat detection and response challenges. Our recent research found that two thirds (67%) of organizations manage threat detection and response using an assortment of point tools. Further, nearly half report they rely on manual processes for threat detection and response and struggle with the daily volume of security alerts, so it’s not surprising that 23% are already working on an XDR project and a further 70% expect to have budget to invest in XDR over the next 12 months. With the introduction of FortiXDR, Fortinet is well positioned to emerge as a major player in the XDR market.”-Jon Oltsik, senior principal analyst, ESG
