Fortinet FortiGate 2601F DC Advanced Malware Protection (AMP), 1-Year (FC-10-FD261-100-02-12)

When a data center firewall is processing 25 Gbps of threat traffic and a piece of malware slips through undetected, the damage scales fast. The FortiGate 2601F-DC is built for exactly this environment: a 2RU DC-power chassis running Fortinet’s SPU-accelerated FortiOS at hyperscale throughput. FC-10-FD261-100-02-12 activates the Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) layer on that appliance for one year, giving your security team continuous file-level defense without bundling services your organization may already cover elsewhere.

What AMP Covers

Advanced Malware Protection is Fortinet’s file content security layer. Activating it on the FortiGate 2601F-DC enables the following FortiGuard components for the subscription term:

• Antivirus (AV) — signature-based and AI/ML-updated real-time file inspection
• Mobile Malware — detects threats targeting Android and iOS devices traversing the firewall
• Botnet Domain / C2 Blocking — stops beaconing to known command-and-control servers at the file and DNS layer
• Virus Outbreak Protection — a rapid-response layer between signature updates
• Content Disarm and Reconstruct (CDR) — strips active content from documents before delivery
• AI-Based Heuristic AV — behavior-based detection for novel malware variants
• FortiGate Cloud Sandbox — cloud-based dynamic analysis of unknown files

Who Needs This License

This SKU suits organizations that already run a separate IPS, URL filtering, or anti-spam solution and need only the file-content security layer activated on the 2601F-DC. It also covers deployments where the hardware was purchased without any bundle and the team is assembling à la carte coverage to match existing enterprise security contracts. The 2601F-DC is a DC-power variant for colocation and modular data center deployments, so the license targets network security engineers and security architects managing high-throughput perimeter or segmentation checkpoints.

AMP vs. the Bundle Options

If your team is evaluating whether to activate AMP alone or upgrade to a bundle, the table below shows which FortiGuard services each option activates on the FortiGate 2601F-DC. AMP addresses file content; the ATP, UTP, and Enterprise bundles extend protection to additional attack surfaces.
