FortiXDR: AI-Powered Extended Detection and Response
Brief Product Description
FortiXDR delivers advanced extended detection and response (XDR) capabilities that build on the foundation of FortiEDR. By combining artificial intelligence with intelligent automation, it correlates telemetry across the entire Fortinet Security Fabric. As a result, it provides a unified platform that stops sophisticated cyberattacks in real time.
Elevate Your Security Beyond the Endpoint
While traditional endpoint security focuses on protecting individual devices, FortiXDR delivers a complete, big-picture view of your entire environment. In other words, it goes beyond isolated alerts and transforms security data into actionable intelligence.
Moreover, FortiXDR functions as an intelligence layer on top of FortiEDR and uses an additional license to convert endpoint telemetry into a comprehensive security narrative. By integrating seamlessly with the broader Fortinet Security Fabric, it eliminates operational silos. Consequently, when it detects a threat in one area, it immediately blocks that threat everywhere.
The Power of Real-Time AI and Automation
Instead of overwhelming your security team with alerts, FortiXDR handles the heavy lifting of security analysis. Therefore, your team can focus on strategic initiatives rather than chasing false positives.
Intelligent Correlation
FortiXDR automatically enriches telemetry with threat intelligence. Then, it analyzes the combined data to identify complex attack chains across endpoints, network infrastructure, and security layers.
Zero Dwell Time
Just like FortiEDR, FortiXDR surgically stops breaches. More importantly, it prevents data exfiltration and ransomware encryption—even after an attacker gains an initial foothold.
Automated Investigation
FortiXDR leverages patented code-tracing technology to deliver complete visibility into the attack chain. As a result, security teams can quickly pinpoint the root cause—even when devices go offline.
Why Choose FortiXDR?
Today, cyberattacks rarely target a single device. Instead, they move laterally across networks to maximize impact. FortiXDR addresses this modern threat landscape directly.
Surgical Precision
FortiXDR blocks malicious outbound communication and file access without shutting down the entire system. Because of this, organizations maintain business continuity while neutralizing threats.
Orchestrated Response
Security teams use customizable playbooks to standardize and automate incident response across both Fortinet and third-party security tools. This approach ensures consistent, faster, and more effective remediation.
Full-Stack Visibility
FortiXDR maps attacks directly to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. In addition, it clearly explains why it flagged specific events, which simplifies investigation and reporting.
Seamless Integration and Management
FortiXDR acts as a force multiplier for modern security operations. Furthermore, it integrates natively with the Fortinet Security Fabric and works seamlessly with solutions such as FortiGate, FortiNAC, and FortiSIEM to enable automated, fabric-wide response.
Whether you deploy in the cloud, on-premises, or within a hybrid environment, FortiXDR scales efficiently. Ultimately, it protects hundreds of thousands of endpoints while maintaining a lightweight footprint.
