Fortinet FortiGate 1100E AI-based Inline Malware Prevention, 1-Year (FC-10-F11HE-577-02-12)

Zero-day threats do not announce themselves. FC-10-F11HE-577-02-12 adds one year of FortiGuard AI-based Inline Malware Prevention to the FortiGate 1100E, giving security teams the ability to inspect, classify, and block unknown files at line rate without routing traffic through an external cloud sandbox. The verdict arrives in under a second, stopping encrypted or novel malware that evades signature-based detection before it reaches the endpoint.

What AI-based Inline Malware Prevention Covers

This service (svc code 577) runs directly on the FortiGate 1100E data plane. It applies AI and machine learning to evaluate file content in real time, catching threats that neither antivirus signatures nor traditional sandboxes have seen before.

• Real-time inline analysis of files traversing the firewall, with sub-second block decisions
• Detection of unknown malware, polymorphic variants, and obfuscated payloads
• Built-in MITRE ATT&CK matrix mapping that accelerates incident investigation and reduces mean time to respond
• Protection across HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP, FTP, and other flows already configured on the 1100E
• Continuous threat intelligence fed from the Fortinet FortiGuard Labs global telemetry network

Who Needs This Service

The FortiGate 1100E targets mid-to-large enterprise perimeters, data centers, and campus aggregation points that handle high-throughput traffic. Organizations that carry sensitive data, serve regulated industries such as finance, healthcare, or government, or that face sophisticated threat actors gain the most from inline malware prevention. If your team already has FortiCare coverage but needs to add zero-day file inspection without purchasing a full bundle upgrade, this à la carte service is the direct path.

This Service vs. the FortiGuard Bundles

AI-based Inline Malware Prevention is included exclusively in the FortiGate Enterprise Protection bundle. The UTP and ATP bundles use cloud-based sandboxing for zero-day detection, which is effective but asynchronous. Inline malware prevention runs on the 1100E itself and delivers synchronous, sub-second verdicts, making it better suited to latency-sensitive production environments.
