Fortinet Warns of Credential-Harvesting Campaign Targeting Firewalls, VPNs

Fortinet has issued a warning about a credential-harvesting campaign targeting its firewalls and VPN gateways. The campaign reportedly uses data from previous security incidents combined with brute-force attacks to compromise user credentials. The company stated that this activity is unrelated to any recent incident or formal advisory.

The warning highlights ongoing threats against network security infrastructure. If successful, such attacks could lead to unauthorized access to corporate networks. Fortinet's customers are advised to follow best practices for password security and multi-factor authentication.
