All about tech: 5 cyber trades

Fortinet's quarterly earnings beat bodes well for the wider network security industry, CNBC "Fast Money" trader Guy Adami said on Monday.

"To me, you're in the golden era of these companies. Rising tides lift all boats," he said.

Fortinet spiked 9 percent, above $37 per share, in extended trading Monday after the company posted better than expected first-quarter results. For trader Pete Najarian, Fortinet's quarter looked "across the board very impressive."

Still, Adami believes Palo Alto Networks provides the most upside in the sector, while FireEye "might give you the most beta right now." Both stocks closed higher on Monday.

Traders also discussed how to trade some technology names outside the cybersecurity sphere.
