John Maddison, Chief Marketing Officer at
Fortinet “As more operational infrastructure becomes
connected, the attack surface increases, leading to greater cyber
risk. Traditional information technology (IT) security tools are
ineffective and worse, cannot even be deployed in an operational
technology (OT) environment. Fortinet has been building an
industry-leading OT security platform for 20+ years and today we
are proud to announce many enhancements across the platform.”
News Summary Fortinet® (NASDAQ: FTNT), the
global cybersecurity leader driving the convergence of networking
and security, today announced updates to its OT security platform,
which already stands as the industry’s most comprehensive. Today’s
news provides customers with enhanced secure networking and
security operations (SecOps) capabilities and expands Fortinet’s
strategic partnerships with leading OT vendors, reflecting
Fortinet’s commitment to delivering security for the growing
cyber-physical systems (CPS) market and dedication to protecting
critical infrastructure in verticals spanning energy, defense,
water supply systems, manufacturing, food, transportation, and
more. In fact, Fortinet was recently recognized as a Representative
Vendor in the 2023 Gartner® Market Guide for CPS Protection
Platforms.
According to the Fortinet 2024 State of Operational Technology
and Cybersecurity Report, cyberattacks that compromise OT systems
are on the rise, with nearly three-fourths (73%) of organizations
experiencing an intrusion that impacted either OT systems only or
both IT and OT systems (up from 49% in 2023). As a result, it’s
more critical than ever for organizations to deploy cybersecurity
solutions specifically engineered for OT environments, including
critical infrastructure.
Building upon its legacy of more than two decades as a global
cybersecurity leader, Fortinet’s OT security platform was designed
to mitigate industrial risk and accelerate and optimize customers’
OT security journeys. The latest updates to the platform
include:
New Advanced Capabilities in OT Secure
Networking
- Enhanced asset identification and OT network topology
in the FortiOS OT
View with configurable asset location to improve
asset identity, location, and communication pathways.
- Expanded virtual patching capabilities and new
capabilities in FortiOS: The introduction of virtual
patching signatures in the FortiGuard OT Security Service provides
wide-ranging vulnerability protection and unpatched OT asset
shielding.
- Two new series of rugged switches: the FortiSwitch
Rugged 216F-POE (power over Ethernet) is designed to
support bandwidth-intensive industrial environments and redundant
architectures, and the FortiSwitch Rugged 424F-POE
has features designed to power Industrial-Internet-of-Things (IIoT)
devices.
- FortiSRA enables secure remote access to
support remote third-party contractors, auditors, and employees,
protecting critical OT systems against threats from remote access
and untrusted networks.
- FortiExtender Vehicle update enables fleet
management in a ruggedized form factor to withstand harsh
environmental conditions and offers secure LAN extension from
remote FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls to create a truly
unified platform for vehicles and first responders.
Expanding AI-Driven OT Security Operations Capabilities
to Defend Against Growing OT Threats
- Expanded OT capabilities in
FortiSOAR, including the introduction of OT View –
an IT/OT overview dashboard with OT asset management – and new
compliance playbooks to increase OT network and asset visibility
and remediation for OT.
- Increased analytics and reporting capabilities
in FortiAnalyzer by creating NERC CIP,
IEC 62443-3-3, and IT/OT Risk reports. An upcoming IoT/IIoT/OT
dashboard includes analytics support for Internet-of-Medical-Things
(IoMT) to further assist with regulatory compliance and security
posture evaluations.
- FortiNDR for OT provides network
behavior analysis to identify known and unknown threats
across the IT/OT infrastructure and detect OT network
anomalies.
- FortiDeceptor-as-a-Service offers
expanded deception for OT and IoT with additional devices
and protocols and simplified deployments to streamline user
experiences.
Enhancing Fortinet’s OT Partnerships Fortinet’s
global partner ecosystem brings together organizations with
specialized OT expertise to help customers maximize cyber
resiliency and improve operational efficiency.
Recent collaborations with Fortinet Alliance partners Armis and
Claroty, as part of the Fortinet Open Ecosystem, have produced new
and enhanced integrations with FortiManager, FortiSIEM, FortiSOAR,
and FortiNAC to maximize actionable OT asset information, simplify
OT network operations for customers, and improve customers’
security postures.
Additionally, Fortinet introduced a new Engage Preferred
Services Partner (EPSP) OT Practice designation to empower OT
channel partners with the tools they need to design and deploy OT
network infrastructure.
Supporting quotes"Armis and Fortinet are a full
stack best-in-class OT/IoT security solution that sees, protects,
and manages every critical OT asset in the environment fully. The
partnership between Armis and Fortinet is strategic and
complementary for both our companies and our mutual
customers. Being a partner in Fortinet’s industry-leading
Technology Alliance Program enables Armis to deepen the
integrations between the Armis Centrix™ platform and the
Fortinet Security Fabric, resulting in the broadest real-time
visibility into IT/OT intersection risks and maximization of
policy-driven enforcement of zero-trust network access and
segmentation. Together, we co-innovate to address our customers'
most consequential cyber risks in OT and enable protection at
scale." – Nadir Izrael, Co-Founder and CTO, Armis
“Claroty xDome combined with the Fortinet Security Fabric
delivers a level of visibility, context, and network policy
enforcement that is unmatched in securing cyber-physical systems.
Claroty’s zone-based policy recommendations and unique planning
capabilities leveraged within the Fortinet Security Fabric via our
unique FortiManager integration enable tangible risk reduction and
remediation action, at scale, that dramatically accelerate OT
segmentation and policy enforcement projects. As a partner in
Fortinet’s Open Ecosystem, we’re able to drive key integrations
that harness these capabilities to deliver a faster time to value
for our customers.” – Stephan Goldberg, Vice President of Business
Development, Claroty
“With Fortinet, we centralized everything and brought all the
management information we need into a single pane of glass. That
enables us to quickly see what is happening across all our
different units. Our Fortinet management systems consolidate
information and do a good job of filtering through all the noise on
the network to quickly identify issues. That streamlines my team’s
processes, so we do not have to keep adding bodies just to look at
logs.”– Dustin Fischer, Director of IT, Wunderlich-Malec
Engineering
“The [Fortinet Security] Fabric allows us to operate a lean team
as we do not need a large staff to manage our security and network
infrastructure. It drives efficiency through a single-pane-of-glass
approach to device management and the ability to centrally
configure policies and push them out to all devices. This is
particularly important when incorporating new locations, as we
believe it will help us easily scale in the years ahead.”– Chad
Logan, Senior Director of IT and Applications, McPherson
