Juventus Football Club is proud to partner with global cybersecurity leader Fortinet, signing a sponsorship agreement which confirms Fortinet as the club’s new official cybersecurity partner for the next two seasons.
Juventus has also chosen Fortinet’s industry-leading Security Fabric platform to reduce complexity and streamline the identification and resolution of network and security issues across the club’s facilities until 2026.
Home to Juventus Football Club and its fans, Allianz Stadium has been a leader in sustainability and serves as one of the premier entertainment hubs and tourist attractions in Turin. Juventus will implement Fortinet solutions within the Continassa neighbourhood, including the Juventus headquarters, Allianz Stadium data center, J|hotel, J|medical, and the First Team Training Center.
Fortinet’s Security Fabric platform and unique ability to converge networking and security will help increase visibility, improve performance, and decrease the mean time to respond to incidents.
