FortiEDR endpoint protection

FortiEDR: Real-Time, Automated Endpoint Protection and Response

Protecting your digital environment requires more than a perimeter fence; it demands vigilant, real-time action at every endpoint. FortiEDR delivers comprehensive endpoint security that detects advanced threats and stops breaches—including ransomware—in real time, even on already compromised devices. It combines proactive risk mitigation with automated incident response to maintain business continuity and maximize system uptime across your infrastructure.

Holistic Protection: Pre- and Post-Infection

Traditional security tools focus only on preventing file execution. FortiEDR creates a continuous security loop that covers two critical phases:

Pre-Infection: Reduce Your Attack Surface

FortiEDR actively reduces risk by identifying vulnerabilities and controlling rogue devices before attackers exploit them.

Proactive Risk Mitigation:
FortiEDR runs vulnerability assessments and enforces risk-based policies such as virtual patching to close security gaps before attackers can exploit them.

Machine Learning NGAV:
A kernel-level next-generation antivirus (NGAV) engine leverages AI-driven analysis to prevent ransomware and other advanced attacks in real time.

IoT & Device Discovery:
FortiEDR automatically discovers, monitors, and controls unprotected IoT and rogue devices that attempt to access your network.

Post-Infection: Stop Breaches Instantly

If a threat bypasses initial defenses, FortiEDR immediately blocks data exfiltration and ransomware encryption in real time.

Real-Time Defusing:
When FortiEDR detects suspicious behavior, it instantly blocks outbound communications and file system access. This action neutralizes the threat while keeping the device online and operational.

Automated Remediation:
Customizable playbooks automate incident response tasks such as terminating malicious processes and rolling back harmful changes. This automation reduces manual workload and enables your SOC team to respond faster and more effectively.

Seamless Integration and Scalability

FortiEDR supports modern enterprise environments. It integrates natively with the Fortinet Security Fabric and shares threat intelligence with solutions such as FortiGate, FortiNAC, and FortiSandbox to strengthen your unified security posture.

You can deploy FortiEDR across workstations, cloud workloads, and legacy manufacturing systems while maintaining consistent functionality across all platforms.
