Fortinet FortiGate 30E Advanced Malware Protection Service, 1-Year (FC-10-0030E-100-02-12)

File-borne malware remains one of the most common initial access vectors. The Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) Service for the FortiGate 30E (FC-10-0030E-100-02-12) keeps the 30E’s antivirus and sandbox inspection engines updated through a 1-year FortiGuard subscription, covering everything from known malware signatures to AI-based detection of unknown files.

What the AMP Service Includes

Six capabilities come with this subscription:

• Antivirus (AV) — continuously updated signature database covering known viruses, worms, trojans, and ransomware. The engine scans files in transit across HTTP, HTTPS (with inspection), SMTP, FTP, and other protocols.
• Botnet Domain detection — static classification of known malicious botnet domains, blocking outbound connections to command-and-control infrastructure at the DNS and AV policy level.
• Mobile Malware protection — signature-based detection and blocking of mobile-targeted malware, useful for networks where personal devices connect through the FortiGate.
• Virus Outbreak Protection — real-time hash-based queries to FortiGuard’s Global Threat Intelligence servers catch newly seen malware variants before local signatures are pushed, acting as a zero-day early warning layer.
• Content Disarm and Reconstruct (CDR) — strips active content (macros, embedded scripts, executable objects) from common file formats (Office, PDF) and delivers a clean version. The original is retained or quarantined based on policy.
• AI-based Heuristic AV — machine learning analysis of file behavior and characteristics identifies unknown malware that hasn’t yet been cataloged in the signature database.
• FortiGate Cloud Sandbox — suspicious files are submitted to a cloud-based sandbox for behavioral analysis. Verdicts are returned and policy action applied accordingly.

Who Uses This

Any FortiGate 30E handling file transfers — whether for a small office downloading email attachments, accessing shared file servers, or passing traffic through web proxies — benefits from AMP. It is particularly effective when combined with an active IPS subscription, which covers network-layer intrusion while AMP covers the file and payload layer.

Activation and Delivery

This is an electronic subscription with no hardware component. DataCenter360.ca delivers the license key by email within 0-1 business days. It registers to your FortiCare account and activates the AV engine updates in FortiOS. AV profiles are then applied to the relevant firewall policies in the GUI.

AMP Standalone Versus a Bundle

Advanced Malware Protection is included in all three Fortinet bundle tiers. The ATP bundle adds IPS alongside AMP; UTP adds URL/DNS/Video Filtering and anti-spam on top; Enterprise adds Attack Surface Security, OT Security, and more. If the goal is comprehensive first-line protection, the UTP bundle covers both AMP and IPS at a better per-service price than buying individually. This standalone SKU is the right call when IPS and other services are already covered and only AMP needs to be renewed or added.
