FortiGate 201E – 1-Year FortiGuard AI-based Inline Malware Prevention as Fortinet Subscription License (FC-10-00208-577-02-12)

FortiGate 201E FortiGuard AI-based Inline Malware Prevention — 1-Year Subscription

FC-10-00208-577-02-12 is a 1-Year FortiGuard AI-based Inline Malware Prevention Service (ILMPS) subscription for the FortiGate 201E. ILMPS extends the FortiGate 201E’s threat inspection pipeline with a cloud-assisted, machine-learning-powered malware detection layer that operates in real time on live traffic—inline, before threats reach internal systems.

Unlike traditional signature-based antivirus, ILMPS uses AI models trained on Fortinet’s global threat telemetry to identify novel and zero-day malware variants that have not yet been categorized in signature databases. The service runs within the FortiGate’s existing inspection framework and does not require additional hardware. Important: ILMPS requires an active FortiGuard Enterprise Protection (809) or equivalent Enterprise bundle on the device to operate. The license is delivered electronically worldwide within 0–1 business days.

What FC-10-00208-577-02-12 Includes

• AI/ML inline malware detection — machine learning models applied to live traffic on the FortiGate 201E to identify unknown and zero-day malware in real time
• Cloud-assisted analysis — suspected files and code patterns are submitted to FortiGuard’s cloud threat analysis infrastructure for rapid verdict, with inline blocking of confirmed threats
• Behavioral analysis — detection based on code behavior and structural patterns rather than signatures alone, improving catch rates against evasive malware
• Integration with FortiGuard threat intelligence — verdicts are correlated with FortiGuard’s global threat database for context and attribution
• Enterprise bundle prerequisite — this service functions as an add-on to an Enterprise Protection (809) or equivalent bundle, not as a standalone license

Who Needs ILMPS on the FortiGate 201E?

ILMPS is designed for Enterprise-licensed FortiGate 201E deployments in environments with elevated risk of targeted or sophisticated malware attacks—such as healthcare, finance, critical infrastructure, and enterprise branch offices. It is appropriate where traditional AV signatures may not be sufficient against novel threats, and where real-time inline blocking (rather than post-detection remediation) is required.
