Building a Comprehensive and Resilient OT Cybersecurity Strategy

OT asset owners need a comprehensive Cybersecurity strategy that includes threat detection, response, and recovery mechanisms customized to the specific needs of OT environments.

In this webinar, we will examine the role of SASE & Security Operations for OT, including: 
- The complexities, advantages, and strategic ramifications asset owners need to consider
- How OT organizations can deliver an all-encompassing, adaptable, and effective security solution for distributed, Cloud-oriented IT and OT environments
- How to avoid common pitfalls in the implementation these solutions to maximize efficacy and success

Can You Secure OT Without SASE?

Unified SASE for All Users and All Devices Everywhere

As organizations are looking for secure alternatives to virtual private networks, SASE is attracting more and more attention.  
In this Fortinet webinar, our experts explore the latest market trends and reveal key criteria that should be part of an effective solution such as:
- Unified Access Security across Remote users, SD-WAN & Cloud
- Smooth Migration to Zero Trust
- How SASE can provide a strategic advantage

What's on the Horizon for SASE in 2024

Digital acceleration is a journey of continual evolution and transformation for organizations. Needs and requirements change over time as organizations adapt their environments and deployments to meet new demands and address emerging challenges along their journey. To secure such dynamic environments, organizations must consider their investment strategies alongside product decisions to ensure that they can keep pace with their digital acceleration while balancing and optimizing their investment outcomes. 

This session will help the audience understand key considerations for managing digital acceleration costs, particularly for those across their cloud journeys.

We’ll discuss:
- When to choose usage-based licensing over traditional term-based licenses
- Key things to look for when considering usage-based licensing approaches for security solutions
- How Fortinet empowers organizations to readily secure their digital acceleration journeys from multi- and hybrid clouds to hybrid mesh firewall (HMF) deployments through FortiFlex – Fortinet’s flexible, usage-based licensing program

Optimizing Investments to Maximize Digital Acceleration

As digital transformation drives change in operations, industrial organizations are leveraging production data to improve efficiency and inform decisions. With transformation comes an increase in OT systems connected to enterprise IT networks, expanding the attack surface and introducing increased risk to the business.
During this session, we will explore three customer case studies and how they designed-in security so OT production networks stay safe, available, and secure.

Customer Stories Featuring OT Security in Action

By 2025, more than 95% of new digital workloads will be on cloud-native platforms, vital for organizations' digital strategies.  While cloud platforms offer advantages like flexibility and scalability, they also introduce complexity in securing these environments.  In doing so, many organizations still struggle with blind spots, workload sprawl, insufficient security coverage and data overload.  Security teams need solutions that can address the dynamic nature of the cloud, are easy to deploy and manage, and can seamlessly integrate into their existing infrastructure and provide comprehensive visibility to manage and protect their cloud workloads.  

This session will help the audience understand how cloud-native platforms are different and the challenges in securing cloud environments.  

We will cover: 
- Some of the common, but overlooked risks that can impact their network
- Elements to consider to properly secure their cloud applications and networks
- How Fortinet simplifies cloud risk with cloud-native solutions that empower impactful security choices, proactively manage risk, and maximize security investments for greater transformation and benefits.

Modernize Cloud Security and Reduce the Complexity

In the face of continually evolving cyber threats, organizations are compelled to adopt a unified and integrated approach to network operations centers (NOC) and security operations centers (SOC).  

This session explores the need for synergy between NOC and SOC functions in response to the dynamic nature of modern cyber threats. By examining the challenges posed by siloed operations, the session sheds light on the benefits and strategic advantages of fostering collaboration and integration between NOC and SOC teams across IT and OT environments.  

Aasef will share insights into how Fortinet’s Security Fabric Platform approach enhances threat detection, incident response, compliance assurance, and overall organizational resilience while lowering the total cost of ownership for SecOps infrastructure.

The Imperative for an Integrated NOC/SOC Approach

During this keynote, Jason Dely will explore how organisations can evaluate tools to properly assess cyber risk posture and effectively prioritize the most pressing vulnerabilities to safeguard operations and productions.
