Fortinet FortiProxy VM04 Content Analysis Service, 2-Year (FC1-10-XYVM4-160-02-24)

A 2-year Content Analysis Service subscription on FortiProxy VM04 eliminates one renewal cycle compared to back-to-back annual licenses, reducing administrative overhead while keeping the commitment shorter than a standard 3-year enterprise term. It is a practical choice for teams that have validated the service and want fewer procurement touchpoints going forward.

Overview

The Content Analysis Service (service code 160) extends FortiProxy VM04 beyond URL and category filtering by inspecting the actual content of HTTP and HTTPS traffic in real time. Rather than evaluating destination addresses alone, this service parses the payload itself, detecting embedded malicious scripts, obfuscated code, and content violating organizational policy before it reaches end users. The inspection runs inline within FortiProxy’s proxy engine and needs no separate appliance or out-of-band deployment.

The VM04 tier (XYVM4) supports up to 100 concurrent users. This subscription is delivered electronically and is valid for deployments worldwide. The minimum order quantity is 1 unit, with a maximum of 25 per order.

Who it suits

This SKU fits organizations running FortiProxy VM04 with up to 100 users who have confirmed the value of payload-level inspection and want to reduce annual renewal tasks. Security teams managing web gateway subscriptions alongside other annual renewals often choose a 2-year term to stagger their renewal calendar. It is also a natural next step when an initial 1-year evaluation period has concluded and a longer commitment is now appropriate.
