Tackling Modern Cybersecurity Challenges

As organizations grapple with expanding digital attack surfaces, alert fatigue, and fragmented security operations, Fortinet’s enhanced FortiRecon offers a more proactive, attacker’s-eye view of vulnerabilities. The platform helps enterprises prioritize real-world exposures, validate risks like adversaries, and accelerate incident response, ultimately reducing the likelihood and impact of costly cybersecurity breaches.

“CISOs and security teams are overwhelmed by an endless stream of alerts. The latest FortiRecon capabilities deliver AI-driven threat intelligence, automated validation, and rapid response workflows, enabling organizations to cut through the noise and strengthen their cyber defense strategy,” said Nirav Shah, Senior Vice President of Products and Solutions, Fortinet. 

According to Gartner by 2026, organizations implementing continuous exposure management will be three times less likely to suffer breaches, highlighting the importance of CTEM-aligned solutions like FortiRecon.
