Three years. Three operations. Nearly $250M recovered from cybercrime networks across Africa. 🔐 See how Fortinet, @INTERPOL_HQ and the @wef’s Cybercrime Atlas are turning shared threat intel into real-world results in Operation Serengeti III: ow.ly/G2mL51004kU Pictured: (1) Suspected scam call center in Uganda; (2) Illegal cryptocurrency mining center in Angola.

As AI agents move into production, security and governance need to move with them. 🔐 We're working with @NVIDIAAI to support the new OpenShell Reference Architecture, designed to bring greater isolation, visibility, and policy enforcement to enterprise AI agent deployments. 🔗 Learn more on NVIDIA's blog: ow.ly/XwL350ZZQW6

We’re honored to be recognized by @CSIWorld with its 2026 Global Annual Cybersecurity Leadership Award, recognizing our work across threat intelligence, cybercrime disruption, and cybersecurity education. 🏆 The recognition reflects the work of our teams and partners to turn intelligence into action, support law enforcement, expand cybersecurity skills, and strengthen trusted channels for reporting cybercrime, including through initiatives like the Cybercrime Bounty program. 🔗 Read more: ow.ly/R9bQ50ZZNLh

Frontier AI is changing how fast vulnerabilities can be found. It’s also changing how fast we need to address them. On October 22, we're releasing coordinated security updates for #FortiOS, FortiManager, and FortiAnalyzer, following recent FortiMail and FortiAuthenticator releases. #Fortinet CISO, Dr. Carl Windsor discusses these updates, and how frontier AI-assisted testing is strengthening our secure-by-design approach and shaping a broader quarterly security release cadence. 🔗 Learn more about the updates: ow.ly/NKaW50ZZIHJ

AI is collapsing the time between reconnaissance and impact. At the 2026 Security Operations Summit, Derek Manky, Chief Security Strategist and Global VP of Threat Intelligence at FortiGuard Labs, breaks down how attackers are weaponizing AI and automation, and what it means for how SOC teams detect, investigate, and respond. 🎤 The New Speed of Risk: What AI-Powered Attacks Changes for Security Operations 🗓️ November 4, 2026 | 9AM PST 🔗 Register today: ow.ly/HJM050ZZaRU

The @NSAGov has released new guidance for hardening Department of War (DoW) operational technology (OT) with zero-trust principles. The document prioritizes 26 activities for securing legacy OT, with a broader DoW framework of 105 activities behind them. Why this matters for defense and public sector leaders: ➡️ OT systems support mission readiness ➡️ Legacy controllers cannot run modern security agents ➡️ NSA starts with segmentation, remote access, and visibility 🔗 Read more: ow.ly/Sg0850ZZ7It

AI in the SOC. 5G at the edge. Rugged hardware on the plant floor. ⚙️ One OT Security strategy has to connect all three. 🔄 #Fortinet’s Richard Springer explores how our AI-Enabled OT Security Platform brings AI-driven protection and rugged connectivity together to secure industrial operations from core to edge. 🔗 Read more: ow.ly/lGM350ZYCGj #OTSecurity

Security architecture has a new coordinate: jurisdiction. 📍 DATA → Where is it processed? POLICY → Where is it enforced? JURISDICTION → Which rules apply? Those questions are becoming part of the architecture itself. A sovereign SASE approach puts jurisdiction at the center of security design, helping organizations navigate evolving sovereignty requirements without losing sight of protection or operational needs. 🔗 Explore the approach: ow.ly/jpgN50ZV1Bg

One OS. One certified security foundation across IT and OT. 🔐 #Fortinet has achieved IEC 62443 certification across the #FortiOS product family, spanning FortiGate, FortiGate Rugged, FortiWiFi, and FortiGate VM across three release lines. For OT and critical infrastructure teams, that means more consistent security and simpler compliance across diverse environments. 🔗 Learn more: ow.ly/rRWZ50ZYcV3

📰 NEWSROOM REQUIREMENTS: ✔️ Publish from anywhere ✔️ Keep access secure and reliable ✔️ Protect the story and the data FUNKE Mediengruppe uses #Fortinet Unified SASE to securely connect journalists and employees across multiple countries and nearly 100 remote sites, replacing legacy VPN access with simpler, more reliable connectivity and centralized management. 🔗 Read the full story: ow.ly/5uZN50ZVEsW

AI risk awareness is starting to turn into action. One finding from the @WEF Global Cybersecurity Outlook 2026 is worth revisiting: the share of organizations assessing the security of AI tools jumped from 37% to 64% year over year. 📈 Learn why that shift matters as organizations work to keep pace with the security implications of AI adoption. ow.ly/I1b750ZXORX

How do you prepare for risks that extend beyond #cybersecurity itself? In this short recap, Robert May explores three priorities reshaping the conversation: cyber resilience, data sovereignty, and #AI risk. Discover why these topics matter now and how organizations can strengthen security while building greater business resilience.

Security awareness is more than training completion. It’s about changing behavior and reducing risk. 📊 Our 2025 research shows that 67% of organizations report fewer intrusions, incidents, or breaches after implementing security awareness training. Yet many leaders still see gaps in employee awareness. The opportunity? 💭 ✔️ Measure what matters ✔️ Reinforce secure behaviors ✔️ Build a workforce ready to adapt as threats evolve Learn what measurable workforce readiness looks like: ow.ly/qcbn50ZXkz2

Cybercrime rarely operates alone. It’s one piece of a larger puzzle that includes financial crime, trafficking, and corruption. This month in Panama City, the people working to solve that puzzle come together. 🧩 At the @CSIWorld 2026 Global Summit, themed “Cooperation Against Converging Crime,” @FortiGuardLabs' Derek Manky will join leaders from law enforcement, government, industry, and civil society to share how cybersecurity expertise strengthens the broader response to interconnected crime. Through our Cybercrime Bounty program with CSI and our work with the Cybercrime Atlas, #Fortinet helps connect threat intelligence, community reporting, and investigative expertise. That turns isolated signals into coordinated action and makes criminal networks harder to sustain. 🔒 🔗 ow.ly/Ojx950ZXbnz
