Fortinet has announced major updates to its cloud security solutions during its Security Day event in Abu Dhabi. The company introduced enhancements to Lacework FortiCNAPP, aiming to simplify the protection of applications and workloads across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

Additionally, Fortinet revealed that several of its key services are now available in AWS Marketplace. These include FortiAppSec Cloud, FortiMail Workspace Security, FortiNDR Cloud, FortiSIEM, and Fortinet Incident Response Services.

Nirav Shah, Senior Vice President, Products and Solutions at Fortinet, stated that the company is focused on accelerating secure cloud transformation. He added that expanding offerings in AWS Marketplace and enhancing cloud-native tools supports this goal.

Fortinet reported several significant enhancements to Lacework FortiCNAPP:

  • Real-Time CloudTrail Alerting reduces alert latency to under 15 minutes.
  • Explorer (Security Graph) allows interactive visualization of attack paths.
  • Agentless Windows Scanning identifies risks without requiring software agents.
  • Fleet Management offers detailed visibility across environments.

Moreover, Fortinet introduced new service bundles that include DAST, CDN, and SoC-as-a-Service, powered by AI-driven zero-day threat protection.

The company also announced the expansion of its AWS Marketplace presence. This enables AWS customers to access more Fortinet products under their existing AWS accounts. It also supports use of AWS Enterprise Discount Program (EDP) commitments.

New services now listed on AWS Marketplace include:

  • FortiAppSec Cloud for WAAP
  • FortiMail Workspace Security for SaaS protection
  • FortiNDR Cloud for AI-driven detection
  • FortiSIEM for scalable incident response

Fortinet has achieved the AWS Security Incident Response Specialization. This confirms its capability to provide streamlined incident response in collaboration with AWS security experts.

The company emphasized its unified approach to cloud-native security. Instead of separate solutions, Fortinet offers an integrated platform combining WAAP, NDR, SIEM, CNAPP, and workspace security.

Fortinet’s flexible FortiFlex licensing model was also highlighted. It supports daily usage-based pricing, elastic scaling, and alignment with existing cloud spending commitments.

These updates reflect Fortinet’s ongoing commitment to helping organizations protect every application, network, and cloud edge with comprehensive, cost-effective security.

“Whether you are born in the cloud or migrating business workloads, Fortinet delivers a unified cloud native application protection platform to empower organizations who adopt a multi-cloud strategy, securing their workloads, applications, and environments with agnostic visibility. This includes posture management and runtime security across the entire CICD lifecycle without compromising performance or agility.Fortinet is expanding its security cloud delivered offerings on AWS marketplace with FortiNDR, FortiSIEM, and FortiAppSec to provide real-time detection, contextual enterprise-wide visibility, cloud threat hunting, automated response and application security at cloud speed and scale,” said Alain Penel, VP of Middle East, Turkey & CIS at Fortinet.
