Fortinet Content Analysis Service, 1-Year (FC2-10-FEVVS-160-02-12)

Activating Content Analysis Service on a 2-CPU FortiMail-VM bridges your entry-level virtual gateway to Fortinet’s FortiGuard cloud sandbox, where suspicious email attachments and embedded URLs are detonated in an isolated environment before delivery to end users. This 1-year subscription covers your existing 2-CPU FortiMail-VM instance and renews annually, keeping coverage aligned with your procurement cycle.

Overview

The Content Analysis Service (svc_code 160) extends FortiMail-VM with FortiGuard-powered dynamic analysis. When a message arrives carrying an attachment or a URL, the service submits the content to a cloud sandbox that executes it in a controlled environment and returns a verdict before the message is delivered. This approach catches evasive malware and phishing payloads that bypass signature-only filters. The add-on license is tied to the CPU count of the underlying FortiMail-VM subscription; this SKU covers the 2-CPU tier for one year. No local sandbox hardware is required — Fortinet’s FortiGuard cloud infrastructure handles the execution environment.

Who it suits

Sized for organizations running FortiMail-VM at the 2-CPU tier, this add-on fits small-to-mid teams that need advanced threat inspection without a full hardware appliance. Because analysis runs in Fortinet’s cloud, the VM itself handles only verdict enforcement, keeping local resource requirements predictable. The 1-year term suits teams that prefer annual review of licensing scope and want the option to adjust coverage at each renewal.
