Cutting-edge technologies such as Security-as-Code (SaC) and Generative AI (GenAI) are playing a crucial role in this effort. Fortinet, a global cybersecurity leader, has been at the forefront of AI innovation for over a decade, and its recent release of Fortinet Advisor marks a significant leap forward in bolstering cybersecurity efforts.
