Fortinet FortiGate 400F FortiGuard Data Loss Prevention Service, 1-Year (FC-10-0400F-589-02-12)

Sensitive data does not announce itself before crossing the perimeter. The FortiGate 400F FortiGuard Data Loss Prevention Service (FC-10-0400F-589-02-12) monitors traffic in real time, matching it against a continuously updated library of patterns for credit card numbers, Social Security numbers, and other regulated data types, then blocks or logs transmissions that match your DLP policies. For any organization handling financial records, healthcare data, or personal information subject to privacy regulations, DLP adds a critical inspection layer to the FortiGate 400F that is not active without this subscription.

What FortiGuard DLP Covers

FortiGuard Data Loss Prevention works through the DLP profile and dictionary engine built into FortiOS. When traffic passes through the FortiGate 400F, DLP compares it against a cloud-sourced database of predefined sensitive data patterns. Matches trigger a configurable action: block, monitor, quarantine, or alert. The service applies across HTTP, HTTPS (with SSL inspection enabled), SMTP, FTP, and other supported protocols, so coverage is not limited to web traffic alone.

Key capabilities included with this subscription:

• Predefined pattern library for PII, financial identifiers, and healthcare data, continuously refreshed by FortiGuard Labs
• Support for custom DLP dictionaries and regular-expression rules configured within FortiOS
• Inspection of encrypted HTTPS traffic when SSL/TLS deep inspection is active on the FortiGate
• Per-policy, per-user, and per-traffic-type granular enforcement controls
• Logging and reporting of DLP match events for audit trails and compliance documentation

Who Needs a Standalone DLP Subscription

Two groups typically choose this SKU. The first includes organizations that already have an active UTP or ATP subscription but need to add DLP separately, either because DLP was not included in their original bundle tier or because they need to match its expiry to a specific compliance audit cycle. The second includes organizations running the FortiGate 400F in a dedicated compliance zone, such as a payment-card processing segment or a healthcare network, where DLP is a specific requirement and other FortiGuard services are provisioned separately on different segments.

The FortiGate 400F supports up to 80 Gbps of firewall throughput with hardware-accelerated NP7 processors, making it a capable platform for DLP inspection at mid-enterprise scale without the performance bottleneck that would occur on smaller models.

Activation and Delivery

This is an electronic subscription. After order confirmation, DataCenter360.ca provides a Fortinet contract code that you register at support.fortinet.com. The DLP service activates on the specific FortiGate 400F identified by its serial number. No physical shipment is required. Delivery typically completes within 0 to 1 business days. The license is valid for 12 months from activation and can be renewed or co-termed with other contracts on the same device through the FortiCare portal.

Standalone DLP vs. the UTP and Enterprise Bundles

FortiGuard DLP is included in both the UTP and Enterprise bundles for the FortiGate 400F. If you are starting a new subscription or approaching renewal and need coverage across multiple services, the bundle almost always delivers better cost-per-service value than purchasing DLP as a standalone. The table below shows where DLP falls within the full bundle matrix:
