Fortinet, a global cybersecurity leader driving the convergence of networking and security, is introducing significant enhancements to the FortiRecon platform, making it a comprehensive solution aligned to the continuous threat exposure management (CTEM) framework.
According to the company, this latest release introduces expanded internal attack surface monitoring, adversary-centric dark web intelligence, and security orchestration, all in a single, unified platform—helping organizations proactively identify and prioritize real-world exposures, validate risks like an attacker would, and accelerate response, ultimately reducing the likelihood and impact of breaches.
“CISOs and security teams are overwhelmed by growing attack surfaces and an endless stream of unprioritized alerts,” said Nirav Shah, senior vice president of products and solutions at Fortinet. “With the latest enhancements to FortiRecon, we’re giving organizations an attacker’s eye view of their internal and external exposures, backed by AI-powered threat intelligence from FortiGuard Labs, real-world validation, and automated response. This allows organizations to cut through the noise, focus on what matters most, and measurably reduce risks and vulnerabilities before attackers can exploit them.”
FortiRecon, in combination with its strong integration to the Fortinet AI-Driven Security Operations Center (SOC) platform, now delivers capabilities across the five pillars of the Gartner CTEM framework—scoping, discovery, prioritization, validation, and mobilization—enabling organizations to operationalize these pillars within a single, tightly integrated platform and drive coordinated remediation efforts across security and IT teams.
The latest enhancements include:
- Attack surface management: Continuously monitors and delivers an adversary’s view of the organization’s internal and external digital attack surface. The latest release adds National Vulnerability Database (NVD) severity ratings, in addition to FortiRecon Active Exploitation severity ratings for faster and smarter patching.
- Adversary-centric intelligence: Provides actionable threat insights from dark web activity, ransomware intelligence, leaked credentials, vulnerabilities being exploited in the wild, and at-risk vendors. Enhancements include bulk indicators of compromise (IOC) downloads and stealer infection details, accelerating SOC workflows, and improving breach detection.
- Brand protection: Monitors for domain impersonation, rogue mobile apps, phishing campaigns, and executive targeting. FortiRecon Brand Protection uses proprietary algorithms to monitor, detect, and take down fake phishing domains, brand and executive impersonations, rogue mobile applications on multiple app stores, data leaks in code repos, open bucket exposures, and phishing campaigns, and helps protect executive online presence.
- Security orchestration: Leverages security orchestration and automated playbooks to investigate and respond to security threat findings. FortiRecon Security Orchestration reduces the time needed for responders to prioritize and take appropriate actions by automating and streamlining security workflows.
