Fortinet FortiGate 70G-PoE FortiGuard IPS Service, 1-Year (FC-10-G70GP-108-02-12)

Vulnerabilities disclosed this month become active exploits next month. The 1-Year FortiGuard IPS subscription (FC-10-G70GP-108-02-12) keeps the FortiGate 70G-PoE armed with deep-packet inspection signatures for thousands of known CVEs and attack techniques, updated in real time by FortiGuard Labs as new threats emerge. The result: exploit traffic is stopped at the gateway before it reaches servers, workstations, or the PoE-connected devices sharing the same network fabric.

What the IPS Service Does

FortiGuard IPS combines three detection mechanisms on the FortiGate 70G-PoE. Signature detection matches network traffic against a database covering 17,000+ known exploits, vulnerability payloads, and command-and-control communication patterns — covering CVEs from all major vendors and operating systems. Protocol anomaly detection flags traffic that violates protocol specifications or behavioral baselines, catching zero-day variants and obfuscated attacks that evade signature matching alone. Rate-based detection identifies volume-based patterns consistent with scanning and denial-of-service activity, allowing early-stage attack traffic to be blocked before it escalates. FortiGuard Labs publishes signature updates continuously; the FortiGate 70G-PoE downloads them automatically on the configured update schedule.

Who Buys the 1-Year IPS Subscription

Any organization where server or endpoint exposure to the internet or an untrusted network warrants exploit protection at the gateway is a candidate. The FortiGate 70G-PoE’s PoE capability makes it common in environments with mixed IT and operational endpoints — IP cameras, access control readers, thin clients, IoT sensors — and IPS protects all of that traffic at the policy enforcement point. Organizations running the 70G-PoE without an active bundle and needing to close the network-exploit gap specifically will find the 1-year standalone IPS subscription the right starting point.

Activation and Delivery

The license key is delivered electronically to any country within 0 to 1 business days. Register in FortiCare against the FortiGate 70G-PoE serial number; IPS signatures download automatically on the next update cycle. Apply an IPS sensor to firewall policies covering the traffic segments you want to inspect. No restart required, no hardware changes needed.

IPS Standalone vs. the UTP and Enterprise Bundles

FortiGuard IPS is included in all three bundle tiers — ATP, UTP, and Enterprise — alongside antivirus, web filtering, application control, and additional services depending on tier. Buying IPS as a standalone subscription makes sense when network exploit prevention is the specific gap, without the additional cost of the full bundle.
