Fortinet sees cyberattacks rising with AI, organized crime in 2026

Cybersecurity firm Fortinet is warning that cyberattacks will become faster, more organized, and increasingly driven by artificial intelligence (AI) in 2026, based on findings from its latest Cyberthreat Predictions Report released by FortiGuard Labs.

The study projects that cybercrime will accelerate next year, shifting from isolated malicious activity into a more structured global industry.

FortiGuard Labs’ analysis suggests that criminal groups will behave more like business organizations, using automation, AI-driven specialization, and predictable workflows to scale their operations.

One of the report’s most urgent concerns is the expected reduction in the time it takes for an attack to cause damage.

With automation and AI tools, the window from initial breach to exploitation may shrink from days to just minutes, leaving organizations with little time to react.

Attackers are also projected to rely less on new techniques and more on optimizing existing ones, prioritizing speed over innovation.

The report also anticipates the use of specialized AI agents that can help criminals steal credentials, analyze stolen data, and generate targeted ransom demands.

While these agents are unlikely to be fully autonomous yet, they are expected to significantly improve attack efficiency.

FortiGuard Labs further predicts that the underground market will mature, offering structured services such as tailored botnets and credential rentals supported by customer service models and reputation systems for cybercriminals.

These developments, the report argues, require a major shift in cybersecurity practices. Defense systems will need to operate at “machine speed,” reducing detection and response intervals from hours to minutes.

Identity verification is expected to become a priority not only for people but also for machine-to-machine interactions, preventing misuse of automated agents.

Fortinet also called for expanded collaboration among governments, industry alliances, and law enforcement, citing initiatives like Interpol’s Operation Serengeti 2.0 and its partnership with Crime Stoppers International.

The company added that education efforts aimed at young or at-risk individuals remain critical to discouraging participation in cybercrime.

Fortinet Philippines country manager Bambi Escalante said during a media briefing last Dec. 5 that organizations can no longer rely on static defenses.

“Static configurations and periodic assessments can’t keep pace with an environment where attackers automate reconnaissance, privilege escalation, and extortion in minutes,” she said.

“What organizations need is a unified, adaptive security posture, one that brings together threat intelligence, exposure management, and incident response into a continuous, AI-enabled workflow.”

Fortinet’s Fabric-Based Approach to Cloud Security

by Alastair Cooke on November 7, 2025

The enterprise migration to the cloud has created a security paradox. While digital transformation and multi-cloud architectures promise agility, they have also delivered unprecedented complexity. This complexity is the modern CISO’s greatest enemy. For every new cloud environment, SaaS application, or remote workforce, a new, siloed security tool has usually been procured. The result is a fragmented, unmanageable collection of point products that creates security gaps, policy inconsistencies, and overwhelming alert fatigue.

This tool sprawl is the fundamental problem that a platform-based security model seeks to solve. The purpose of a true security platform is not just to offer a comprehensive list of features, but to converge and integrate those features into a single, cohesive, and automated system. Fortinet presented its Security Fabric and its implications for securing the modern, hybrid enterprise at Cloud Field Day 24. Watch all Fortinet’s videos on the Tech Field Day website.

 

What is the Fortinet Security Fabric?

The Fortinet Security Fabric is an architectural approach that treats the entire enterprise network as a single, integrated attack surface, spanning from on-premises data centers to multi-cloud workloads and SASE-connected edges. It is designed to provide three core attributes:

1. Broad: It spans the entire digital footprint, providing visibility and control over endpoints, networks, and clouds.
2. Integrated: All security components share threat intelligence and operate within a common policy framework, thereby eliminating gaps between siloed products.
3. Automated: It leverages AI-driven security operations and a unified management plane to enable near-real-time, coordinated responses to threats.

This stands in sharp contrast to the traditional model of stitching together a firewall from one vendor, a WAF from another, and a CNAPP from a third. The foundation of this entire fabric is FortiOS, a single, unified operating system. Whether deployed as a physical appliance, a virtual machine (FortiGate-VM) in AWS or Azure, or as the engine for a SASE service, FortiOS provides a consistent set of security services and management capabilities everywhere.

Securing the Hybrid Workforce: The Unified SASE Solution

The most immediate challenge for the modern enterprise is the dissolution of the network perimeter. The workforce is remote, applications are in the cloud, and the “network” is now the internet. This is the problem that Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is designed to solve.

Fortinet’s approach, described as Universal SASE, emphasizes the convergence of networking and security. It combines SD-WAN (Secure SD-WAN) for network-level optimization with a full suite of Security Service Edge (SSE) capabilities, including:

• Firewall-as-a-Service (FWaaS): Consistent threat protection and policy enforcement for all user traffic.
• Secure Web Gateway (SWG): Protection from web-based threats, regardless of user location.
• CASB (Cloud Access Security Broker): Visibility and control over SaaS applications.
• Universal ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access): Replaces legacy VPNs by providing granular, application-level access based on user and device posture.

The key differentiator in this model is the integration. Because all these services run on the common FortiOS foundation and are managed through a single console (FortiManager), the enterprise avoids the complexity of managing separate point solutions for ZTNA, SD-WAN, and web filtering. It provides a consistent policy and a single agent (FortiClient) for all users, whether they are in the office or working remotely.

The Cloud-Native Challenge: From Workloads to Applications

As organizations mature, their cloud security needs evolve from simply securing “lift-and-shift” virtual machines to protecting complex, cloud-native applications. This requires a different set of tools, which Fortinet integrates into its fabric.

First is Cloud-Native Application Protection (CNAPP). This is not a single product but a suite of capabilities designed to secure the entire application lifecycle. It provides Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) to identify misconfigurations in cloud provider environments (like open S3 buckets or insecure IAM policies) and Cloud Workload Protection (CWP) to secure the runtime environment of VMs, containers, and serverless functions.

Second, and of growing importance, is securing the applications themselves. This is the role of Web Application and API Protection (WAAP). As demonstrated at Cloud Field Day 24, modern applications—especially those leveraging AI—introduce new attack vectors. Fortinet’s approach combines its FortiWeb (WAF), bot protection, and API security into a unified solution. This enables it to defend against multi-stage attacks, identifying and blocking threats such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and even sophisticated attempts at manipulating AI models.

AI-Powered Security for an AI-Driven Threat Landscape

The final, and perhaps most critical, component is the use of Artificial Intelligence. It is no longer feasible for human security operations (SecOps) teams to manually correlate alerts from dozens of different tools. The threat landscape is evolving rapidly, and the volume of data is increasing significantly.

This is where AI-driven security operations become essential. Fortinet’s strategy relies on FortiGuard Labs for AI-powered threat intelligence. This global feed, which analyzes billions of threat events daily, is shared across the entire Security Fabric. An advanced threat detected at an endpoint in one part of the world can be used to automatically update firewall rules in a multi-cloud data center on another continent.

The platform leverages AI locally for automated threat detection and response. This includes AI-powered web application protection that can distinguish between malicious bot activity and legitimate user traffic, as well as generative AI capabilities within the management console to assist security analysts in threat hunting and incident response.

Who Needs the Security Fabric?

The Fortinet Security Fabric is designed for enterprises that have recognized the operational and security failures of a siloed, multi-vendor security architecture. It targets the CISO who is under pressure to provide consistent policy enforcement and threat visibility across a complex hybrid environment. By converging networking, cloud-native security, and SASE into a single, integrated platform built on a common operating system, this approach directly addresses the primary challenge of tool sprawl. The value proposition is not just about comprehensive security features; it is about reducing operational complexity, closing integration gaps, and enabling an automated, rapid response to threats that is impossible to achieve with a collection of disparate point products.
