Evolved Network and Application Security Architectures on AWS
Melinda Marks, ESG; Brian Mendenhall, AWS; Aiden Walden, Fortinet
Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG) shows 1 in 7 recent survey respondents reporting more than 40% of their apps running on public cloud to realize the benefits of cloud agility and improved user experience.
Security teams need to support these efforts, but there are challenges to ensure consistency:
• Each cloud is architected differently, preventing an accurate view of overall security,
• The dynamic nature of applications and cloud infrastructure makes security monitoring difficult,
• Cloud-native and on-prem apps require different policies and technologies.Watch this custom ESG talk as our experts evaluate how to overcome the top 7 public cloud security challenges, reveal 6 urgent threats to cloud environments, and explain how Fortinet and AWS help customers temper these cloud risks with new approaches to security architecture and policy automation.
Speakers:
Melinda Marks, Practice Director of Cybersecurity at ESG
Brian Mendenhall, Worldwide Head of Security Partners at AWS
Aiden Walden, Global Director of Cloud DevOps Engineering and Architecture at Fortinet -

Cloud Security 2024: Managing Complexity
Frank Dickson, Group Vice President, Security & Trust, IDC
The promise of the cloud was supposed to be easy and simple; infrastructure was someone else’s concern after all. However, that is not our reality. The digitization of business, the speed of technological advances, and the escalating number and sophistication of cyberattacks have led to IT complexity and a never-ending race to defend our enterprises. Frank will discuss the current state of complexity in the cloud, the need to secure it, and key strategies to accelerate digital transformation through better security outcomes.

Modernize Cloud Security and Reduce the Complexity
Maristelle Bagis Hosaka, Director, Product Marketing - Cloud Security, Fortinet
By 2025, more than 95% of new digital workloads will be on cloud-native platforms, vital for organizations' digital strategies. While cloud platforms offer advantages like flexibility and scalability, they also introduce complexity in securing these environments. In doing so, many organizations still struggle with blind spots, workload sprawl, insufficient security coverage and data overload. Security teams need solutions that can address the dynamic nature of the cloud, are easy to deploy and manage, and can seamlessly integrate into their existing infrastructure and provide comprehensive visibility to manage and protect their cloud workloads.
This session will help the audience understand how cloud-native platforms are different and the challenges in securing cloud environments.
We will cover:
- Some of the common, but overlooked risks that can impact their network
- Elements to consider to properly secure their cloud applications and networks
- How Fortinet simplifies cloud risk with cloud-native solutions that empower impactful security choices, proactively manage risk, and maximize security investments for greater transformation and benefits. -
Optimizing Investments to Maximize Digital Acceleration
Vince Hwang, Sr. Director - Products & Solutions, Cloud Security, Fortinet
Digital acceleration is a journey of continual evolution and transformation for organizations. Needs and requirements change over time as organizations adapt their environments and deployments to meet new demands and address emerging challenges along their journey. To secure such dynamic environments, organizations must consider their investment strategies alongside product decisions to ensure that they can keep pace with their digital acceleration while balancing and optimizing their investment outcomes.
This session will help the audience understand key considerations for managing digital acceleration costs, particularly for those across their cloud journeys.
We’ll discuss:
- When to choose usage-based licensing over traditional term-based licenses
- Key things to look for when considering usage-based licensing approaches for security solutions
- How Fortinet empowers organizations to readily secure their digital acceleration journeys from multi- and hybrid clouds to hybrid mesh firewall (HMF) deployments through FortiFlex – Fortinet’s flexible, usage-based licensing program -
