• The Fortinet Security Awareness and Training Service now includes two AI-focused modules: Generative AI and AI-Powered Threats, designed to help employees recognize emerging threats such as deepfakes, AI malware, and other AI-driven cyberattacks. At the heart of this initiative is FortiGuard Labs, Fortinet's leading research team, which has been at the forefront of tracking the rise in the use of AI by cybercriminals. Through continuous monitoring and analysis, FortiGuard Labs has identified how AI tools are being used by bad actors to deceive and manipulate individuals. Leveraging the learning and insights from this extensive research, we've developed these training modules to equip employees with the knowledge they need to recognize these threats and protect themselves and their organizations from falling victim to sophisticated AI-driven attacks.
