Fortinet : is a Premiere Sponsor at the 2018 AT&T Business Summit

The AT&T Business Summit is about to kick off this September 25 - 28 at the Gaylord Texan Resort and Conference Center in Dallas, TX. And once again, Fortinet is proud to be participating as a Premiere sponsor. (Read more about the event last year.)

This year's event is anticipating over 2,500 attendees who will be participating in more than 140 sessions and other hands-on experiences, led by today's top thought leaders and industry experts.

Fortinet is Leading Three Timely Sessions on Enterprise Security:

Security in the World of IoT, The Convergence of Network Access Control and IoT Security - Wednesday, September 26 / 3:00 - 3:30 PM by Frank Andrus, Fortinet's VP of Engineering

The surge in the deployment of IoT devices requires advanced network security, including the ability to identify every user and classify every device that connects to the network and then grant or limit network access appropriately. Attendees will learn how Fortinet enables organizations to define and implement a comprehensive security posture that starts with end-to-end network visibility, including the ability to enforce dynamic network access controls and implement automated threat response.

The Critical Factors For Deploying Your Secure SD-WAN - Thursday, September 27 / 11:00 - 11:30 / Sponsor Lab 2 by Rick Mashburn, Fortinet's Director of Systems Engineering

While digital transformation is pushing more enterprise traffic to the edges of the network, traditional WAN infrastructures are becoming inadequate for providing voice and video to branch locations. SD-WAN offers enterprises a more cost-effective solution that delivers better and smarter application performance. But not every SD-WAN solution is up to the challenge. In this Lab, Networking Directors and VPs will learn how to improve their business SLAs around network availability, reliability, VPN performance, and security without impacting quality of experience or network performance, while managing complexity and cutting costs.

Managing the Demands of Today's Risks - A Security Fabric Approach - Thursday, September 27 / 1:00 - 1:40 by Jonathan Nguyen-Duy, Fortinet's Vice President of Strategy and Analytics

Technological and organizational complexity is increasing the burden that security staff has deal with, and that impacts the time it takes to resolve cyber-attacks. Managing environments with disparate tools and appliances is no longer an acceptable approach for securing modern business infrastructure. A fabric strategy weaves strategically deployed devices into a single, cohesive security system, enabling near-seamless manageability. Attendees will learn Fortinet's methodology for delivering a security fabric that helps businesses reduce complexity, increase time to execution, and manage the entire security attack surface more effectively.
