FortiAI: Smart security at the core

FortiAI integrates seamlessly with key Fortinet platforms like FortiSOAR, FortiSIEM, FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer, providing intelligent, on-device AI capabilities. This integration empowers security operations centers (SOCs) with advanced threat detection, automated responses and actionable insights across the digital infrastructure.

Smarter security operations with SOAR and SIEM

FortiAI enhances Fortinet's SOAR (FortiSOAR) and SIEM (FortiSIEM) platforms by accelerating threat investigation and response. Analysts gain access to AI-driven playbooks, incident summaries, and real-time threat assessments—reducing time-to-action and improving accuracy.

  • FortiSOAR: FortiAI supports playbook creation, incident response, and threat analysis, offering ready-to-deploy templates and detailed recommendations.
  • FortiSIEM: It interprets complex security data, flags false positives and guides mitigation strategies — all accessible through natural language prompts.

AI-driven network management and analysis

  • FortiManager: FortiAI enables generative AI for network automation, helping teams configure devices, identify vulnerabilities and improve uptime with minimal coding.
  • FortiAnalyzer: It delivers deep threat analysis, attacker profiling and natural language-powered queries, streamlining threat hunting and reporting.

Use Case: Drawing-based SD-WAN template creation with FortiAI

Objective:
Enable network architects to design SD-WAN configurations visually (e.g., network topologies drawn by hand or using diagramming tools), and have FortiAI interpret those drawings to automatically generate SD-WAN templates.

How FortiAI could help

  •  Diagram Recognition 

FortiAI can be utilized to analyze hand-drawn or digital diagrams, recognizing standard network symbols and extracting key relationships such as hub-spoke connections, WAN links, redundant paths and security zones.

  • SD-WAN Template Generation

Based on the parsed diagram, FortiAI generates interface mappings, performance SLAs, routing rules, and security policies to produce a pre-validated SD-WAN template ready for deployment via FortiManager or FortiAnalyzer.

  • Benefits

FortiAI reduces misconfiguration by aligning with visual designs, accelerates deployment across complex topologies, empowers less technical users to contribute, and supports education, POCs, and dynamic network planning.

Built for scalability and performance

Powered by machine learning and generative AI, FortiAI is embedded into Fortinet's unified FortiOS architecture, ensuring smooth integration across the ecosystem. It's designed to boost operational efficiency, reduce setup time by up to 25 percent, and enhance network performance and productivity.

Key benefits of FortiAI

  • Stronger security: Automates threat response and playbook generation.
  • Operational efficiency: Frees up analyst time through guided, AI-driven insights.
  • Future-proof scalability: Seamlessly evolves with FortiOS updates.
