Fortinet AI security service launch

Overview

Fortinet has announced the launch of FortiGuard Inline AI Security, a cloud-delivered subscription service. The service is designed to integrate artificial intelligence security directly into existing FortiGate firewall infrastructures to provide real-time inspection of AI prompts, model responses, and Model Context Protocol traffic.

The solution utilizes FortiAIGate, an AI gateway incorporating technology from Fortinet’s August acquisition of Virtue AI. It aims to mitigate risks such as Shadow AI and data leaks by enforcing data loss prevention policies. While primarily cloud-delivered, on-premises options are available for organizations with specific privacy or data sovereignty requirements.

Following the launch, market analysts noted a shift in investor interest toward cybersecurity firms like Fortinet, SentinelOne, and Okta. Fortinet has reportedly seen its stock trade at a discount despite strong third-quarter results and an upward revision of its 2026 guidance.
