Key Takeaways
⇨ While AI enhances business operations, it may be taken advantage of by threat actors to exploit security vulnerabilities in SAP systems.
⇨ Organizations face challenges in achieving a unified security infrastructure that can effectively manage AI-powered security threats, leading to gaps in visibility and real-time threat detection.
⇨ Fortinet's FortiAnalyzer offers a solution by integrating AI-driven security operations, enabling real-time threat detection, automated incident responses, and centralized analytics to strengthen an organization's overall security posture.
While AI technology has really changed the way businesses and industries operate, it is important to recognize that it is also a tool that can be used by threat actors for targeting SAP systems. Threat actors can use AI and advanced technologies to lower the barriers and exploit security gaps especially in systems such as malware and AI generated phishing attacks.
However, despite many robust solutions out in the market, organizations are still struggling with blind spots in their security systems and do not have visibility of their operational technology systems. Coupled with this, organizations are increasingly struggling to create a unified security infrastructure that can manage complexities generated by AI powered security threats and need solutions that provide real-time AI-driven security monitoring and threat detection.
Fortinet’s FortiAnalyzer meets the demand for today’s increasing security challenges by providing real-time threat detection, consolidated analytics, and accurate visibility of an organization’s security position. This assists the analysts in promptly identifying and managing sophisticated-targeted attacks before they cause any breaches. It simplifies the complexities of modern cybersecurity environments with an integrated, automated and AI-driven approach which involves AI-driven security operations that aid in investigations, reducing alert fatigue, ensuring systems work together seamlessly and strengthens the overall security posture.
FortiAI (Fortinet’s AI-powered Security Assistant) is tightly integrated with FortiAnalyzer which simplifies advanced security analysis for organizations and provides information on security event analysis, remediation actions, and threat hunting support, enabling analysts to query in natural language and generate comprehensive reports.
An AI-driven interface makes execution easier and helps fill skill gaps by guiding security teams through in-depth analysis and performing important actions such as system isolation or threat blocking. With an aggregate view, FortiAnalyzer allows security logs to be pulled from all Fortinet appliances for centralized collection and analysis / correlation, which is helpful to confirm compliance posture. Within a single, integrated console, organizations can streamline operations to automate and scale incident response across the entire attack surface. A light deployment of the solution means that only a little configuration is added to it, which is an ideal start-up for building security systems from scratch.
For the complete transformation of security operations, FortiAnalyzer delivers robust central logging network insights, AI-powered analysis, and automation supported by elastic-level performance while deployed as zero-touch installation. This meets the current cybersecurity demands of an organization and sets a direction for future developments.
