Closing the Cloud Perimeter Gap with Fortinet NGFW + Stream
Blog post from Stream.Security
Security teams face challenges managing conflicting signals in the cloud, leading to unnecessary escalations and missed threats. To address this, an integration has been developed between Fortinet FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFW) and Stream.Security's Cloud Detection and Response (CDR) platform to connect perimeter activities with cloud events. This integration enables the FortiGate NGFWs to feed critical data into Stream's CloudTwin™ engine, creating a real-time model of the cloud environment and providing accurate visibility of resource accessibility. By incorporating firewall rules and routing data from Fortinet, Stream reduces false alarms, streamlines alert triage, and clarifies real attack paths. This unified approach allows security teams to focus on genuine threats, reduce alert fatigue, improve response times, and enhance patching workflows, ultimately helping Security Operations Center (SOC) and SecOps teams prioritize and respond to cloud-native threats more effectively.
