FortiSandbox 5.0: The New Era of AI-Driven Cybersecurity

Here is the translation into American English:

The rapid evolution of the cybersecurity landscape has led to threats becoming increasingly sophisticated and difficult to detect. To address these challenges, Fortinet has launched version 5.0 of FortiSandbox, its advanced threat protection solution, now powered by a next-generation artificial intelligence (AI) engine. This new version promises to revolutionize cybersecurity by significantly enhancing the accuracy, speed, and efficiency of threat detection.

Artificial Intelligence and Specialized Machine Learning

FortiSandbox 5.0 employs advanced AI and specialized machine learning algorithms, based on unsupervised learning and artificial neural networks, that enhance threat detection and analysis. This analytical system is designed to identify patterns and anomalies without relying on prior labels, allowing it to detect unknown threats and zero-day malware attacks.

Its main features include:

  • Static Scanning: Analyzes files and patterns before execution, identifying potential threats through advanced pattern recognition.
  • Unsupervised Learning: Capable of identifying threats without relying on pre-existing signatures, detecting suspicious behaviors and unique patterns of sophisticated attacks.
  • Artificial Neural Networks (ANN): Utilizes deep networks to analyze complex data and automatically extract meaningful features, enabling FortiSandbox to anticipate complex and unknown attacks.
  • Continuous Updates: The AI engine is fed with updated threat intelligence, constantly training itself to address emerging threats.

Workflow Optimization and Automation

FortiSandbox 5.0 leverages AI not only to identify threats more quickly but also to optimize workflows in security operations centers. Thanks to parallel processing techniques and data contextualization, this system can accelerate response times and reduce false positives, allowing analysts to focus on more complex threats. Some of the performance enhancements include:

  • Parallel Processing: Speeds up analysis through algorithms that manage multiple tasks simultaneously, reducing detection times.
  • Data Contextualization: Analyzes multiple factors (such as threat intelligence and network behavior) to better assess the exploitability of a threat.
  • Task Automation: The AI automatically classifies and analyzes files, freeing analysts from routine tasks and allowing them to focus on complex threats.

Advancements and Benefits for Cybersecurity

Version 5.0 of FortiSandbox brings significant improvements over previous versions, providing a faster and more effective response to modern threats:

  • 10 Times Faster Response: The AI enables quicker threat verdicts, speeding up reaction capabilities.
  • 3 Times Better Accuracy: Threat detection is more precise, reducing false positives and increasing the reliability of results.
  • Greater Scalability: The version includes a tripled number of virtual machines, offering greater flexibility to adapt to different environments.

FortiSandbox 5.0 not only represents a leap forward in threat detection but also positions itself as a strategic investment for organizations seeking advanced protection against the ever-evolving landscape of threats.
