Fortinet FortiGate 2600F-DC OT Security Service, 3-Year (FC-10-FD26F-159-02-36)

Industrial networks running behind a FortiGate 2600F-DC need more than a generic IPS signature set. This SKU, FC-10-FD26F-159-02-36, activates the FortiGuard OT Security Service for a FortiGate 2600F-DC appliance for a 3-year term, layering OT-aware detection and virtual patching on top of the firewall’s existing NGFW throughput.

What it covers

The OT Security Service adds four things to the FortiGate 2600F-DC’s FortiGuard subscription set: OT dashboards and compliance reporting, OT application and service detection, OT vulnerability correlation with virtual patching, and a dedicated set of OT-specific Application Control and IPS signatures. Fortinet’s OT database currently tracks over 2,400 virtual patches, 1,600+ OT applications, and 3,500+ protocol rules, so the service recognizes SCADA, ICS, and industrial protocol traffic instead of treating it as generic IT flow. Virtual patching in particular matters on plant floors, where a PLC or HMI often can’t be patched or rebooted on a normal IT cycle; the service shields the known vulnerability at the firewall until the device itself can be updated.

Who needs it

This license fits organizations running OT, SCADA, or converged IT/OT environments behind the 2600F-DC, DC power model, typically utilities, manufacturing plants, oil and gas, or any site where downtime for patching isn’t an option. It is an a-la-carte security service, not part of the Enterprise, UTP, or ATP FortiGuard bundles, so it’s purchased on its own when the environment specifically needs OT visibility rather than the broader consumer/enterprise threat feed.

Activation & delivery

Delivery is electronic worldwide: the license key ties to the FortiGate 2600F-DC’s serial number and activates through the FortiGuard portal, no hardware ships with this SKU. The 3-year term (code 36) renews on the same cycle as the appliance’s other FortiGuard entitlements, so most customers line it up with their FortiCare and bundle renewal dates to keep a single support anniversary.

One service vs the bundle

Because OT Security is a-la-carte only, it doesn’t appear inside the Enterprise, UTP, or ATP bundle matrix. If the 2600F-DC deployment also needs anti-malware, IPS, URL/DNS filtering, and FortiCare Premium support wrapped into one purchase, the FortiGuard Enterprise Protection or Unified Threat Protection bundle covers that broader IT-security scope; OT Security stacks on top of either bundle for sites that also run industrial protocols. Buyers who only need the OT-specific detection and virtual patching, without changing their existing IT security stack, are the right fit for this standalone SKU.
