Fortinet FortiGate 60F Inline Malware Prevention Service, 1-Year (FC-10-0060F-577-02-12)

Signature engines catch known malware, but a brand new sample can slip past in the seconds before a signature exists. The FortiGate 60F 1-Year FortiGuard AI-based Inline Malware Prevention service (FC-10-0060F-577-02-12) closes that window by sending suspicious files to FortiGuard AI models in real time, so the 60F can block a verdict-positive file inline before it reaches a user. This is a single FortiGuard service line for one 60F, sold as a twelve-month subscription and delivered electronically.

What this service covers

Inline Malware Prevention adds an AI-driven check to the firewall’s antivirus path. As a file crosses the 60F, its characteristics are evaluated against FortiGuard machine-learning models trained on Fortinet’s global threat telemetry. Files that look malicious are held and blocked in line rather than flagged after delivery. It targets the zero-hour and evasive malware that static signatures miss, and it works alongside the IPS and antivirus the device already runs.

This single line versus the bundles

AI-based Inline Malware Prevention is the differentiating service in Fortinet’s top tier. The table shows where it sits next to the other FortiGuard services, so you can see what a standalone line gives you and what stepping up to a bundle adds.

If you only need the inline malware capability on top of an existing setup, this line delivers it. If you also want web, DNS and video filtering or the broader Enterprise services, the matching bundle is the more economical route, which is why most buyers compare this against the Enterprise subscription.

Who needs it

Organisations that already license other protections individually, or that handle high-risk inbound files and want an extra inline layer, are the natural fit. A 60F at a clinic, law office, or small finance team that cannot afford a malware miss benefits most from blocking unknown threats before they land.

Activation and delivery

We email the entitlement after purchase. You register it to the 60F serial through FortiCloud, and the service activates against FortiGuard. No appliance changes are needed beyond enabling the feature in your antivirus profile.
