Fortinet's Security Fabric Coalescing into IBM Security's New X-Force Threat Management Services
Harboring a long-standing relationship, Fortinet, a global leader in broad, automated and integrated cybersecurity solutions lately collaborated with IBM’s new X-Force Threat Management Services. Installed with an aim to protect their mutual customers, both organizations endeavor to provide unprecedented threat insight, attack detection & prevention, and an integrated defense-in-depth strategy designed to seamlessly span across an organization’s entire attack surface. “Our Security Fabric which provides broad visibility across digital attack surface, integrated detection of advanced threats and automated response perfectly complements IBM’s new threat management services as its ecosystem members are already Fabric-Ready Partners” articulates Rajesh Maurya, Regional Vice President, India & SAARC-Fortinet. “Our Security Fabric’s integrated threat intelligence services further assist businesses determining where to best prioritize resources based on threats seen across the entirety of an organization” adds Rajesh.
Developed around the key tenets of NIST Cybersecurity Framework, IBM’s X-Force Threat Management Services creates an integrated and programmatic approach across the entire threat management lifecycle. Being Fortinet’s Fabric-Ready partner since 2017, IBM Security leverages this new partnership to deliver enhanced value to customers through advanced problem protection and support against cyber threats across on-premise and multi-cloud environments. Moreover, their mutual customers are able to deploy a fully integrated solution that delivers unmatched expertise, real-time intelligence, and powerful security tools and services.
On the other hand, Fortinet empowers its customers with intelligent, seamless protection across the expanding attack surface and the power to take on ever-increasing performance requirements of the borderless network - today and into the future. Securing the largest enterprises, service providers, and government organizations around the world, the firm’s Security Fabric architecture can address the most critical security challenges, whether in networked, application, cloud or mobile environments. Clearly, Fortinet ranks first in the most security appliances shipped worldwide and around 340,000+ customers trust them to secure their businesses.
The need of the hour in the present digital economy is an effective security transformation strategy that can shield organizations from the emerging cybersecurity threats. This strategy must entail collaborative system integration, automated sharing of real-time threat intelligence, the centralized orchestration of security policies, consistent and coordinated policy enforcement, and intelligent data & device segmentation across physical and virtual environments. Breathing such an integrated strategy, Fortinet and IBM ensure that their customers can quickly develop and deploy a holistic security strategy designed around technologies and services in order to seamlessly span and protect even the most complex ecosystem of digital networks.
