Fortinet FortiGate 2601F FortiGuard OT Security Service, 1-Year (FC-10-F26F1-159-02-12)

Most FortiGate deployments protect IT infrastructure. The FortiGate 2601F OT Security Service (FC-10-F26F1-159-02-12) extends that same FortiOS policy engine into operational technology environments: industrial control systems, SCADA networks, manufacturing floors, and critical infrastructure where downtime carries consequences beyond data loss.

What the OT Security Service Covers

Three capability pillars activate on the FortiGate 2601F when this subscription is applied:

• OT Device Detection: an up-to-date signature package that identifies OT/ICS device types and surfaces asset metadata directly in the FortiGate dashboard, giving your team a live inventory of connected industrial devices.
• OT Vulnerability Correlation and Virtual Patching: correlates detected devices against known CVEs specific to OT systems. When a patch cannot be applied to a live PLC or RTU, a corresponding IPS virtual patch blocks exploit traffic at the firewall level.
• OT Application Control and IPS Signatures: adds industrial protocol and application signatures (Modbus, DNP3, EtherNet/IP, and others) to FortiOS Application Control and IPS profiles, enabling enforcement on OT traffic that generic ruleSets do not recognize.

Who Needs This Service

This subscription is for organizations that have already chosen the FortiGate 2601F and also manage converged IT/OT networks. That includes:

• Energy utilities, water treatment facilities, and other critical infrastructure operators where ICS/SCADA availability is regulated.
• Discrete and process manufacturers using SCADA or DCS systems connected to corporate networks.
• Government and defense organizations that must protect industrial control assets under NERC CIP, IEC 62443, or similar frameworks.
• Managed security providers delivering OT/ICS security as a service to any of the above.

If your environment is pure IT, the standard FortiGuard bundles (UTP or Enterprise) are the more efficient choice. OT Security is an à-la-carte add-on, not a replacement for those packages.

Activation and Delivery

This is a FortiGuard subscription, delivered electronically. After purchase, DataCenter360.ca provides the Fortinet contract license key within 0-1 business days. You register it to the FortiGate 2601F serial number through the FortiCare portal or the FortiOS GUI under System > FortiGuard. The subscription activates within minutes of registration, enabling the OT signatures and dashboards without a firmware update in FortiOS 7.x.

The 1-year term begins on the date of registration. If you are co-terming with an existing service contract, request a co-term quote before ordering so all services expire on the same date.

OT Security vs. the Standard FortiGuard Bundles

The ATP, UTP, and Enterprise bundles for the FortiGate 2601F cover IT-centric threats: antivirus, sandboxing, URL filtering, anti-spam, and the FortiGuard IPS signature base. They do not include OT-specific device detection, industrial protocol signatures, or OT virtual patching. This service adds exactly those missing capabilities on top of your existing subscription, keeping your IT and OT protection on a unified platform rather than forcing a separate point solution.
