Organizations taking a digital leap are more vulnerable to cyber-based threats, said cybersecurity firm Fortinet in a recent webinar on the importance of cybersecurity mesh architecture (CSMA).
For the incoming new year, cybersecurity solutions provider Fortinet said it is anticipating the focus of exploits falling on work-from-anywhere setups, 5G-enabled edge, and satellite Internet off-planet.
Fortinet’s semi-annual FortiGuard Labs Global Threat Landscape Report also shed light on the volume of ransomware activity of this year compared to last year, which ha snow grown by tenfold. These attacks are targeting supply chains of multiple organizations and are affecting critical infrastructure and productivity.
Fortinet, a cybersecurity firm that specializes in cybersecurity solution integration and automation, has been recognized as one the Leaders for Gartner’s 2020 Magic Quadrant for WAN Edge Infrastructure. In the country, Fortinet was chosen by third telco player Dito Telecommunity last month.
According to Fortinet, the dawn of the “new normal” and modified working conditions of many organizations around the world has made the amalgamation of integrated security, routing, and software-defined WAN in one appliance, more appealing.
Graduates of the Fortinet Network Security Academy (FNSA) program will boost the Philippines’ long-term cyber defense capabilities against increasingly sophisticated threats.
According to Fortinet's research, most organizations have sustained an attack that has resulted in data loss or compliance issues in the past two years. But, there have been instances where organizations that experienced breaches did not suffer any data loss, compliance issues, or outages because of their security preparedness.
