Thank you and good afternoon, everyone. This is Aaron Ovadia, Senior Director of Investor Relations at Fortinet. I am pleased to welcome everyone to our call to discuss Fortinet's financial results for the third quarter of 2024. Joining me on today's call are Ken Xie, Fortinet's Founder, Chairman and CEO; Keith Jensen, our CFO; John Whittle, our COO; and Christian Agard, our CAO and sales operations leader.

This is a live call that will be available for replay via webcast on our Investor Relations website. Ken will begin our call today by providing a high-level perspective on our business, Keith will then review our financial and operating results for the third quarter of 2024 before providing guidance for the fourth quarter of 2024 as updating the full year. We will then open the call for questions. During the Q&A session, I ask that you please limit yourself to one question and one follow-up question to allow others to participate.
