Advanced Detection and Investigation

FortiSIEM detects attacks using UEBA, over 3000 IT/OT correlation rules, and customer-controlled machine learning models. Analyst investigation is powered by deep endpoint forensic information, real-time threat intelligence, and link graph technology for easy visualization of relationships between users, devices, and incidents.

The image shows a FortiSIEM dashboard screen with a FortiAI chatbox open and a text overlay of example prompts for FortiAI. The examples are: Analyze this log and tell me what action to take. What are the top 10 incidents in the last week? What blocking activities will help contain this incident? Create a report of events per critical incident of the last 30 days. Who are the highest risk users in the last 72 hours?

FortiAI: Generative AI Power for FortiSIEM

FortiAI provides embedded generative AI assistance to guide and turbocharge FortiSIEM analysts actions during incident investigation, response, threat hunting, and more. FortiAI can automatically interpret security events, generating a detailed summary, potential impact, and remediation recommendations. Analysts can also query FortiAI in natural language to create rich reports and get product help. Built-in menu prompts make it simple for FortiSIEM analysts to invoke FortiAI help during typical workflow activities.
