AI-driven Security Operations (SecOps) Across Multi-Framework Environments to Empower Organizations – Webinar
The session will explore how AI driven security operations (SecOps) across multiframework empower organizations to defend against sophisticated cyber threats, reduce detection and response times, and comply with evolving regulations. Participants will learn how Fortinet’s Security Operations platform integrates behavior based sensors to detect and disrupt threat actors across the attack surface and how centralized investigation and remediation can be orchestrated, automated and augmented to reduce cyber risk and operational cost . The session will also discuss how AI and automation trough AGENTIC AI support continuous compliance.
Learning objectives and benefits
• Understand the evolving threat landscape and challenges: attacks are becoming automated and AI powered, increasing the volume and impact of threats . The session will outline how expanding digital attack surfaces, cyber security complexity and skills shortages drive the need for AI assisted SecOps .
• See how Fortinet’s SecOps platform works: the platform integrates SIEM, SOAR, EDR and behavior based sensors to detect and disrupt threat actors across the cyber kill chain . It enables security teams to benefit from advanced detection, automation and GenAI assistance, tailored for both turnkey and advanced SOC operations .
• Discover the operational and business benefits: Fortinet’s AI driven SecOps platform detects and contains attacks, compared with an industry average of 21 days . Research has reported that organizations using the platform reduce cyber risks and improve security team efficiency and achieve an outstanding return on investment . Fortinet has also been recognized as a Challenger in the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for SIEM, reflecting continued innovation and solid future .
• Relate zero trust initiatives and AI controls – Explain how automation supports continuous assurance and compliance with regulations such as NIS 2 and GDPR.
• Encourage skills development: highlight Fortinet training programs
