Fortinet FortiGate 2600F DC SOCaaS Managed Log Monitoring Subscription, 1-Year (FC-10-FD26F-464-02-12)

Running a high-throughput FortiGate 2600F-DC in a colocation or private data centre means the log volume can be staggering. The FortiGuard SOCaaS service (FC-10-FD26F-464-02-12) hands that workload to Fortinet’s own security analysts — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. They monitor every event, triage incidents, and escalate confirmed threats directly to your team, so your staff focuses on remediation rather than sifting through noise.

What SOCaaS Covers

This 1-year subscription activates the FortiGuard Security Operations Center as a Service (SOCaaS) for one FortiGate 2600F-DC appliance. The service delivers:

• Continuous 24×7 log collection and analysis via FortiAnalyzer Cloud (included)
• Incident triage by Fortinet SOC analysts using FortiGuard threat intelligence
• SOC escalation with actionable remediation guidance sent to your security contacts
• Coverage of network traffic, policy violations, IPS events, and security fabric telemetry
• Electronic activation — no hardware shipment required; valid for 365 days from activation

Who Needs This Service

The FortiGate 2600F-DC sits at the top of the mid-to-high enterprise segment, handling 100 GbE-connected workloads and multi-tenant data centre traffic. Organizations running this appliance typically process high event volumes that make manual monitoring impractical without a dedicated SOC. SOCaaS fills that gap for teams that:

• Do not have 24×7 in-house security analysts
• Need to extend their team’s hours without adding headcount
• Require managed coverage across shift changes, holidays, and weekends
• Want expert triage against live Fortinet threat-intelligence feeds rather than static rules alone

Activation and Delivery

After purchase, DataCenter360.ca delivers your FortiGuard SOCaaS registration key electronically within 0–1 business days. You apply it through the FortiGate dashboard or FortiCare support portal, linking the appliance to Fortinet’s cloud-based SOC infrastructure. The service starts from the activation date, not the purchase date, giving you flexibility to coordinate with your security team before the clock begins.

SOCaaS vs. Other Managed Services for the 2600F-DC

Fortinet offers two complementary managed services for the 2600F-DC that serve different functions:

• SOCaaS (this subscription): focuses on security monitoring, log analysis, and threat escalation. Analysts watch for incidents and alert you when action is needed.
• Managed FortiGate Service (NOC): covers network operations — device configuration, policy management, and change implementation by Fortinet NOC engineers. It is a day-to-day operational service, not a security monitoring one.

Many enterprise customers running the 2600F-DC in a carrier-grade environment deploy both: NOC for ongoing operations and SOCaaS for continuous security watch. They are separate licenses and can be purchased independently.
