Bengaluru: Fortinet has rolled out FortiDLP, a new AI-driven tool designed to help businesses protect sensitive data and prevent data leaks. The solution is aimed at addressing challenges faced by companies, especially with the rise of hybrid work environments and the increasing use of unapproved applications and AI tools.
Traditional data loss prevention tools have struggled with issues like slow performance, rigid policies, and difficulty in managing data across different locations. FortiDLP seeks to solve these problems by providing real-time data protection right from the start, using machine learning and automated policies to keep track of data movement and detect risks.
A standout feature of FortiDLP is its ability to manage “shadow AI” risks. As employees increasingly use AI tools like ChatGPT or Google Gemini, FortiDLP allows businesses to monitor and secure data shared through these tools without stopping productivity. The solution also helps organizations keep an eye on their use of cloud applications, protecting against unauthorized data sharing and potential breaches.
In addition to this, FortiDLP offers insider threat protection, detecting risky user behaviors and preventing sensitive information from being leaked. It uses AI to analyze patterns and alert security teams if something suspicious happens.
Fortinet plans to expand the reach of FortiDLP by integrating it more deeply into its broader security network, allowing businesses to better protect their data across all channels. The company hopes this will help organizations stay one step ahead in an increasingly complex security landscape.
