Companies mentioned

Fortinet will return to participate in the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting on Cybersecurity 2026 in Geneva on May 4–6. The company plans to engage in discussions that address cybersecurity as a shared challenge involving public and private leaders.

The meeting brings together senior leaders from government and business, international organizations, and civil society to focus on cooperation, intelligence sharing, and coordinated strategies to address systemic cyber risk across global cyber frontiers. The program reflects an expectation of collaboration rather than isolated defenses.

Fortinet will contribute global threat intelligence and operational experience to discussions on coordinated cybercrime disruption through shared intelligence and joint action. It also will participate in topics covering public-private partnership models, AI-driven threats and defenses, aligned response strategies, and cyber resilience across critical infrastructure and supply chains.

The company tied its participation to several public-private initiatives: Partnership Against Cybercrime, Cybersecurity Learning Hub, and Cybercrime Atlas, which Fortinet said launched in 2023 with the World Economic Forum and other industry partners. In one section, Derek Manky, Fortinet Chief Security Strategist and Global VP of Threat Intelligence, said, “Cybersecurity is now inseparable from economic resilience and global stability. As AI accelerates both attack and defense capabilities, collaboration across public and private sectors is essential to stay ahead of systemic threats. The World Economic Forum provides a critical platform for turning shared intelligence into coordinated action.”

Fortinet’s return to the annual meeting will align its participation with ongoing efforts that include shared intelligence, coordinated disruption, and cyber resilience activities described in the initiatives it supports.
