Fortinet FortiOS is the foundation of the Fortinet Security Fabric

Overview
FortiOS, Fortinet’s operating system, is the foundation of the Fortinet Security Fabric, the industry’s highest-performing and most expansive cybersecurity platform, organically built on a common management and security framework. FortiOS ties all the Security Fabric’s security and networking components together to ensure seamless integration. This enables the convergence of networking and security functions to deliver a consistent user experience and resilient security posture across all manner of environments including on-premises, cloud, hybrid, and converging IT/OT/IoT infrastructure.
What’s New in FortiOS 7.4
FortiOS 7.4 is packed with new features that enhance the Fabric’s ability to deliver unprecedented visibility and enforcement across hybrid environments. It also accelerates security operations through AI-driven prevention, automation, and real-time response.
Along with enhancements to the Fortinet Security Fabric, FortiOS 7.4 delivers secure networking and management, enhanced prevention, early detection and real-time response, and risk reduction for cyber-physical and industrial control systems.
Secure Networking and Management Across Hybrid Environments
IT leaders can now unify management and apply analytics across their entire hybrid network through FortiOS 7.4 and enhancements across our secure networking portfolio of hybrid mesh firewalls, Secure SD-WAN, single-vendor SASE, Universal ZTNA, and secure LAN/WLAN solutions.
Prevention, Early Detection, and Real-Time Response Stop Weaponized AI Attacks
New threat prevention, automation, and real-time response capabilities across the Security Fabric help security teams optimize security operations and accelerate time to resolution. We defend against even the most sophisticated and fast-moving attacks including weaponized AI attacks, targeted ransomware, and advanced persistent threats (APTs). Enhancements span AI-powered threat intelligence, endpoint security, SOC automation, identity and access, and application security.
Risk Reduction for Cyber-physical and Industrial Control Systems
IT and security teams can take advantage of new capabilities as part of Fortinet’s Security Fabric for OT. Teams can now correlate and map security events to the Purdue model, get real-time visibility through our OT dashboard aligned to MITRE ATTACK for ICS, and utilize OT-specific threat analysis and playbooks for accelerated threat remediation.
