FortiAI-Assist for FortiManager
FortiManager revolutionizes network management and security operations by automating routine tasks and acting upon intelligent insights.

Broad integration with Fortinet solutions and 500+ ecosystem tools further enhance the end-to-end workflow orchestration.
Executive Summary
The rapid adoption of digital transformation pushes business networks to adopt a hybrid strategy. As a result, the network infrastructure is getting more distributed, making it hard to manage and secure. And not surprisingly, among all causes leading to cyber incidents and network downtime, human error and misconfigurations are at the top. A recent Data Breach Investigation Report showed that misconfiguration errors were the most common, representing approximately 15% of breaches. Human error is another dominant trend responsible for 13% of breaches.
Complexity is the primary culprit here, as most IT teams do not have a single source of truth for real-time information on the state of the network and network security. They also need a unified solution to ensure consistent configuration and policy enforcement across the network. Such challenges require a unified network management solution with single-pane-of-glass visibility and process automation for consistency and efficiency.
Modern-Day Network Operations
Companies are expanding and adopting hybrid and distributed strategies to be close to their customers and suppliers. Subsequently, their networks have spread widely, including hybrid data centers to remote sites. And business data and applications are now being hosted on-premises and in the cloud, making secure access to critical resources from a hybrid workforce increasingly challenging. But to address this rapidly evolving scenario, many businesses now find themselves with too many point products operating in silos, each with its own management console and automation framework. As a result, many network operations teams lack comprehensive visibility into the network to detect anomalies, and they rarely have clear and consistent insight into configurations and controls across the infrastructure.
