Fortinet Celebrates 20 Years in Egypt: Security Day 2026 to Convene Industry Leaders at NMEC

Fortinet, the global leader in cybersecurity and driving the convergence of networking and security, has announced its landmark event, “Fortinet Security Day 2026 – Egypt,” scheduled for April 28 at the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC). The event commemorates two decades of Fortinet's commitment to Egypt’s digital landscape, highlighting a journey built on local talent and strategic partnerships. Featuring senior global executives, including Filippo Monticelli (SVP Sales, SEMEA) and Ben Wilson (SVP Product Management & CTO EMEA), the summit will address the transition toward platform-based cybersecurity and the critical importance of data sovereignty in the MENA region.

Khaled Fawzi, Senior Regional Director for Egypt, Libya, and Sudan, emphasized that Fortinet has evolved from a local presence into a vibrant ecosystem led entirely by Egyptian partners and distributors. As organizations shift away from fragmented tools toward unified security platforms, Fortinet Security Day will showcase how integrated AI-driven intelligence and converged networking solutions are enabling Egyptian enterprises to achieve better ROI while securing critical infrastructure and cloud environments.
