Fortinet FortiWeb 2000F FortiGuard Data Loss Prevention, 1-Year (FC-10-FW2KF-589-02-12)

WAF deployments typically focus inbound, but outbound responses carry their own exposure risk. The FortiGuard Data Loss Prevention subscription arms the FortiWeb 2000F with cloud-delivered detection patterns that scan what the application sends back to clients, not just what arrives at the front door.

Overview

FortiGuard Data Loss Prevention delivers regularly updated DLP signatures to the FortiWeb 2000F via Fortinet’s cloud infrastructure. These signatures scan outbound HTTP and HTTPS response bodies for patterns associated with sensitive data categories. Credit card numbers are identified using PAN format detection with Luhn algorithm validation, reducing false positives on numeric strings that are not payment card numbers. Social Security Numbers and national identification numbers for multiple jurisdictions are covered, as are healthcare identifiers including US National Provider Identifiers and diagnosis code patterns relevant to HIPAA-scoped environments. When a match is found, FortiWeb can block the response, mask the sensitive value in the output, or generate an alert for logging and review. The signature library is cloud-delivered, so coverage updates as new data formats and regulatory requirements emerge without requiring firmware upgrades on the appliance.

Who it suits

Organizations subject to PCI DSS, HIPAA, or data privacy regulations that route web application traffic through the FortiWeb 2000F can use DLP inspection as a last-line defense against accidental or malicious data exposure in application responses. Development teams handling sensitive data fields in APIs are a common source of unintentional disclosure: a misconfigured endpoint or a debugging flag left in production can return raw data fields to any caller. The FortiGuard DLP subscription catches these patterns at the WAF layer before the response reaches the client. Compliance teams documenting data boundary controls will also find the appliance-level logging useful as audit evidence of outbound inspection.
