Morocco Takes Center Stage in Cybersecurity: Fortinet's 'Security Day' to Address Digital Challenges
Morocco is set to become a focal point for cybersecurity discussions as Fortinet, a global leader in the field, prepares to host its inaugural "Security Day" event on October 10. The gathering, which will take place at "The View" Hotel in Bouznika, is expected to draw over 250 attendees from various sectors across the country.
This landmark event aims to bring together cybersecurity and IT professionals to explore the latest trends and developments in this critical field. With the digital landscape evolving rapidly, the timing of this conference couldn't be more pertinent.
Youssef Fouzi, Country Manager for Morocco, Mauritania, and Senegal, will kick off the event by addressing the current state of cybersecurity. His opening remarks will emphasize the importance of regulatory compliance, particularly in light of Morocco's ambitious Digital Morocco 2030 national strategy.
The event will feature insights from industry experts, including Ricardo Ferreira, Fortinet's Chief Information Security Officer for EMEA. Ferreira will shed light on emerging cybersecurity trends and introduce cutting-edge tools designed to combat the ever-changing threat landscape.
Cloud security will take center stage as Apollinaire Moreno, Director of Business Development for Cloud in International Emerging Markets and APAC, discusses its role in Morocco's digitalization journey. Moreno will emphasize the need for robust, flexible, and cost-effective cloud-based security solutions to protect modern business operations.
The complexity of today's digital networks calls for a comprehensive approach to security. Kamel Bouleimen, Regional Director of Systems Engineering for North Africa and Francophone Africa at Fortinet, will delve into the current cybersecurity landscape. He'll highlight the limitations of traditional security measures and the need for more sophisticated detection methods.
Recent data underscores the urgency of these discussions. Cybercriminals are exploiting new vulnerabilities 43% faster than in early 2023, according to Fortinet's latest Worldwide Threat Report. This alarming trend emphasizes the need for improved security practices and more rapid patch management.
To address these challenges, the event will feature workshops led by Fortinet experts. These sessions will focus on key areas that have gained prominence in recent years: security operations (SecOps), cloud security, and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE).
As Morocco continues to advance its digital transformation, events like Fortinet's Security Day play a crucial role in preparing the nation's professionals to face cybersecurity challenges head-on. By bringing together experts and decision-makers, this conference aims to foster collaboration and knowledge-sharing, ultimately strengthening Morocco's digital defenses in an increasingly connected world.
