Fortinet FortiGate 31G OT Security Service, 3-Year (FC-10-GT31G-159-02-36)

Three years is a practical commitment in OT environments. Hardware refresh cycles in industrial networks typically run five to ten years, and the FortiGate 31G is often deployed in locations — remote sites, manufacturing floors, utility edge nodes — where annual renewals create unnecessary procurement overhead. The FortiGate 31G 3-Year FortiGuard OT Security Service (FC-10-GT31G-159-02-36) locks in OT threat intelligence for a full 36 months, covering your device through routine FortiOS upgrades and new OT signature updates without a mid-cycle licensing gap.

What the OT Security Service Covers

The FortiGuard OT Security Service activates a dedicated set of OT detection capabilities in FortiOS for the duration of the 3-year term:

• OT-specific dashboards presenting industrial asset inventory and compliance posture in a single view
• Detection of 80+ OT applications and protocols at the application and payload level
• OT vulnerability correlation mapping known CVEs to identified devices in your network
• Virtual patching via IPS signatures, protecting legacy field devices that cannot be updated in-place
• OT-tuned Application Control and IPS rules, continuously updated by FortiGuard Labs throughout the subscription term

Everything runs on the FortiGate 31G’s existing hardware. No additional appliance is required; activating this subscription unlocks the OT intelligence layer already built into FortiOS.

Who Buys the 3-Year Term

The 3-year SKU is a common choice for OT deployments where the FortiGate 31G is installed as a permanent segmentation layer between IT and OT networks. It is also practical for multi-site rollouts where IT teams want to synchronize all license expiry dates to a single renewal window, avoiding staggered renewals across dozens of remote locations.

Activation and Delivery

FC-10-GT31G-159-02-36 is an electronic subscription license. DataCenter360.ca delivers the key within 0–1 business days of order confirmation.

OT Service Alone vs. a Full Bundle

FortiGuard OT Security is not included in any FortiGuard bundle tier for the FortiGate 31G. It is an à-la-carte service, added on top of whatever other subscriptions your device runs. If your 31G also needs IPS, web filtering, and antimalware coverage, those come from a separate bundle or individual service SKUs. DataCenter360.ca can help you build the right combination for your environment.
