Last week, Fortinet held its annual user event, Accelerate, in Las Vegas. This was the biggest Accelerate in the company’s history, drawing over 4,000 in-person attendees. The increased audience shouldn’t be a big surprise, as Fortinet has increased the breadth of its product lines. The company typically uses the event to update its product, and this year was no different. The news from the event centered around the release of FortiOS 7.6, which included updates to its secure SD-WAN, secure access service edge (SASE), zero-trust network access (ZTNA), digital experience monitoring and more.
