Network Detection and Response

Fortinet NDR identifies cybersecurity incidents in progress based on anomalous network activity to reduce the risk and impact of cyber threats

Watch the Overview Video

Overview

Network Detection and Response (NDR) uses artificial intelligence and other analytics to identify suspicious network activity outside of the norm, which may be an indicator of a cyber attack in progress. FortiNDR enables full-lifecycle network protection, detection, and response. It covers both network traffic and file-based analysis, along with root-cause identification. New threats can be identified by FortiNDR so you can instantly adapt threat containment and protection to new attacks.

Artificial intelligence in action
In addition to dynamically profiling an organization’s network activity, FortiNDR also conducts file-based analysis. It comes pre-trained with more than 6+ million malicious and safe features that can identify IT- and OT-based malware and classify it into threat categories. These features can also accurately pinpoint patient zero and lateral spread of multi-variant malware by analyzing the entire malware movement.

Virtual security analyst
FortiNDR includes a virtual security analyst capability (formerly known as FortiAI) that can operate in unsupervised mode, helping lean SecOps teams fully analyze and investigate new threats within the shortest period of time. Because of our deep neural network’s innate ability to self-learn, it continuously adapts to the evolving cyber-threat landscape including AI-powered cyberattacks.

FortiNDR Use Cases

FortiNDR detects threats where traditional security solutions fail, by using ML and AI, combined with FortiGuard updates.

NETWORK ANOMALY DETECTION

Lets users input any false positive to make an accurate model over time using machine learning to traffic profile and features.

WEAK CIPHER AND VULNERABLE PROTOCOL DETECTION

Identifies the weak links in the network where communications between devices are using weaker ciphers or even vulnerable protocols prone to network attacks. This includes both north-south and east-west traffic.

ML TRAFFIC PROFILING

Uses state-of-the-art ML algorithm for profiling network traffic, baselining, and detecting anomalies.

ENCRYPTED ATTACK DETECTION

Detects encrypted attacks with JA3 detection.

MALICIOUS WEB CAMPAIGNS

Detects phishing and malicious URLs visited from users and identifies campaign name, such as ransomware, Solarwind and Log4j.

NETWORK ATTACK AND BOTNET DETECTION

Detects intrusions between north-south and east-west traffic, including IP and DNS-based botnet attacks across the network.

Features and Benefits

FASTER INCIDENT DETECTION

Baselines network behavior, detects anomalous activity, validates incidents, and contains cyber actors

ACCELERATED THREAT RESPONSE

Sub-second malware classification and inline blocking of zero-day malware with MITRE ATT&CK investigation results

PROVEN AI
