How Fortinet SecOps Reduces Cyber Threat Detection Time

23/06/2025

"With Fortinet SecOps, organisations can detect threats in minutes, not days."

Fortinet’s leading Security Operations (SecOps) platform has been designed to transform the way organisations handle cybersecurity.   

At a time where cyber threats are dramatically evolving in both volume and complexity, organisations today are finding themselves at the mercy of cyber attackers who are more likely to succeed, stay longer and cost more to resolve.  

The truth is that most security solutions aren’t detecting threats fast enough, and even once they do, they can’t cope with the scale and sophistication of them.   

Fortinet has developed their SecOps Solutions platform to directly answer these problems, namely cutting the time it takes to detect and contain threats to just less than 1 hour − reduced from the current average of 21 days (or 168 hours)1.  

 With Fortinet SecOps, organisations can detect threats in minutes, not days  

By drastically reducing the time to detect and deal with threats, it’s been discovered that Fortinet’s SecOps Solutions could reduce the risks to organisations and improve security team operational efficiency by up to 99%2.  

Where organisations are currently taking an average of 22 days and 6 hours to detect, contain, investigate and remediate cyber attacks, it’s been independently proven that Fortinet SecOps Solutions has helped customers to cut this timeline to less than an hour.  

It’s an astounding transformation, but how does it work?  

AI-driven, unified and scalable security solutions   

The Fortinet SecOps platform takes a proactive approach to cybersecurity, leveraging early detection and quick response through technologies such as endpoint detection and response (EDR), network detection and response (NDR), user and entity behavior analytics, digital risk protection service, sandbox, and deception networks.  

Driven by AI, the platform works to monitor environments in real-time, detect anomalies and quickly sound the alarm as soon as threats are identified.  

A critical area to consider is network detection and response. Where attackers succeed in getting in past perimeter-based security, they are lingering on networks without detection. IT teams, therefore, need to be able to extend their visibility in order to see these threats hiding on their networks.  

By leveraging FortiNDR, security teams can harness the power of AI in order to not only detect hidden threats, but respond to network attacks, too. FortiNDR provides the tools for your customers to triage and hunt for threats while retaining 365 days of network metadata, helping to decipher when the breach first took place.   

The products within the Fortinet SecOps platform also integrate seamlessly with other, existing security tools, which further supports its ability to reduce detection time and response.  

Fortinet SecOps isn’t just about the products, though. As part of the service, the Fortinet team of technical engineers and managers are there to help organisations monitor their environments, with ongoing support and expertise.  

Finding the Fortinet SecOps Solution that suits you  

Fortinet SecOps Solutions include a vast array of products and services, ideal for customers to choose those that work best for them, their team and organisation.   

The key benefit to the platform is that it can deal with a wide range of cybersecurity problems, bespoke to different organisations and security systems, which is ever-important in a time where the threat landscape continues to mature.
