Fortinet, a global cybersecurity company focused on driving network and security convergence, rolled out the FortiDLP data loss prevention (DLP) and insider risk-management solution.
The release is based on Next DLP technology and integrated into the Fortinet security fabric. It supports data security management, data protection enforcement and enhanced visibility of insider threats, at scale, for large enterprise customers.
“In an era when data protection is paramount, FortiDLP offers a next-gen solution that combines AI-enhanced detection and insider risk management to secure sensitive information,” said John Maddison, CMO, Fortinet. “By leveraging an AI-powered data protection solution with the help of generative AI, security teams can anticipate risks, streamline incident response and mitigate threats faster than legacy DLP solutions. Protecting your data from both internal and external threats starts with visibility and proactive prevention, and FortiDLP delivers that protection on day one.”
FortiDLP offers an AI-enhanced, cloud-native endpoint data protection solution that allows customers to address data protection requirements with a single solution. With the recent acquisition of Next DLP, Fortinet adds powerful data protection to the Fortinet security fabric, giving security teams a more effective way to prevent data leaks and loss, detect behavior-related threats, train employees to make risk-informed decisions and comply with security policies. The solution also addresses employees’ use of unsanctioned SaaS applications, guarding against data leakage when employees use shadow AI (unapproved GenAI tools). Some of the features that set FortiDLP apart include:
- Shadow AI data protection.
- “Day One” data visibility and protection.
- Insider risk protection.
- SaaS application data protection.
- Origin-based data protection.
- Risk-informed user education.
- AI-powered guidance.
As part of its ongoing commitment to offering customers enterprise-grade data protection, Fortinet plans to sell FortiDLP as a stand-alone solution in addition to adding advanced AI-driven data loss prevention capabilities to its SSE offering and integrating additional insider risk and data protection capabilities across the Fortinet security fabric.
