Fortra Insights: June 2024

Welcome to our monthly Fortra Insights enewsletter! Subscribe to join us here for cybersecurity industry highlights and Fortra news each month.

Exciting developments have been par for the course at Fortra this past month.

Showcased during RSA, our landmark platform represents the culmination of years of research and observation. The security landscape is now mired in complexity. Fortra's platform now unites cutting-edge solutions under a single umbrella to do what we do best: collect threat intelligence, detect threats from across a multitude of vectors, and leverage AI to mitigate risk at scale.

Speaking of RSA, we were honored to attend, field exciting questions, and benefit from some of the best thought leadership in cybersecurity today. Fortra’s Antonio Sanchez walks us through at ground level , diving into some of the hardest-hitting topics at this year’s event: ransomware, the rush to vendor consolidation, and the yet-to-be-determined impact of GenAI on human beings and the world at large.

Lastly, we wrapped up with our most recent Release Day 2024.2 where we rolled out several notable updates. We issued releases for over a half-dozen of our flagship products. We broke into the XDR arena and highlighted our exciting new product. And we dove deeper into our brand-new platform, hot off the software assembly line and ready to move the needle toward security simplification. It might be safe to say this has been one of our most impactful Release Days yet, and we still have exciting things to come!

As we take a step back and look at everything we’ve accomplished in the past few months, it fills us with gratitude toward our tireless team and an immense appreciation for our supporters in the industry who share our dream of innovation and advancement every day. Thank you for joining us in our journey to make cybersecurity an easier, stronger proposition for all.
