News Summary Fortinet® (NASDAQ: FTNT), the
global cybersecurity leader driving the convergence of networking
and security, today announced that the company will return to the
World Economic Forum’s Annual Meeting in Davos-Klosters,
Switzerland from January 20 to 24, 2025. Fortinet, a founding
member of the Forum’s Centre for Cybersecurity and member
of the Centre’s Board, will again engage in the yearly event. Each
year, the Forum’s Annual Meeting welcomes governments, major
international organizations and the Forum’s 1,000 partner
companies, civil society leaders, young changemakers, and social
entrepreneurs to discuss and identify solutions regarding critical
global and regional challenges.
As a part of this year’s Fortinet delegation and as part of the
Forum’s Annual Meeting accredited program, Derek Manky, Chief
Security Strategist and Global Vice President of Threat
Intelligence, will share expertise and insights on partnering to
disrupt cybercrime operations as part of a panel on January 21,
where he will offer lessons learned and best practices on effective
approaches to working together in the fight against digital
adversaries.
In addition to Fortinet’s contributing role and leadership

its Cybercrime Atlas initiative, the company is actively
involved with various global threat intelligence initiatives,
including NATO NICP, INTERPOL Expert Working Group,
the Cyber Threat Alliance working committee
and FIRST, all with the goal of cultivating relationships
across industries and borders to operationalize and coordinate
cybercrime disruption at scale.
Session Details
Title: Collectively
Disrupting the Economics of Cybercrime
When: January 21, 2025 from 9:30 to 10:15
a.m. CET
Overview: In the face of increasing
cyberattacks, building alliances across organizations is an
effective yet often overlooked strategy. By contrast,
cybercriminals continue to demonstrate high levels of collaboration
within their ecosystem, exploiting weaknesses in organizations to
build a profitable network. How can we foster collaborative efforts
to enable systemic disruption of cybercriminal ecosystems?
More About the World Economic Forum Annual
Meeting
Today, individuals, organizations, and society at large are
navigating major geo-economic shifts and an unprecedented pace of
technological evolution. The 55th Annual Meeting of the World
Economic Forum will convene global leaders to discuss and pinpoint
opportunities relating to these changes, which inspired the event’s
theme: Collaboration for the Intelligent Age. The program will be
oriented around five distinct but interconnected priorities:
rebuilding trust, reimagining growth, investing in people,
safeguarding the planet, and reimagining leadership strategies to
evolve industries.
The Annual Meeting 2025 will bring together government, business
and civil society leaders. In 2024, Davos attendees came from 125
countries, and included chief executives and chairs of the Forum
1,000 partner companies, public figures from across the world
- including G7 and G20 countries, as well as heads of international
organizations, leaders from the foremost civil society, labor and
media organizations and top thinkers and academics.
During the meeting, participants will work to foster stronger
partnerships, develop new policies and frameworks, and identify
strategies for effectively deploying technology to address these
priorities. Fortinet is committed to offering ongoing strategic
insights to advance the global cybersecurity conversation.
