Fortinet FortiGate 80F-DSL Advanced Malware Protection, 1-Year (FC-10-F80FD-100-02-12)

A firewall can block known-bad URLs and stop exploit signatures, but malware often arrives as an email attachment, a downloaded installer, or compressed inside an archive that looks routine. The Advanced Malware Protection Service for the FortiGate 80F-DSL (FC-10-F80FD-100-02-12) activates inline antivirus, mobile malware scanning, and FortiGate Cloud Sandbox analysis on the 80F-DSL, intercepting malicious files in traffic flows before they reach endpoints.

What this service activates

Enabling FC-10-F80FD-100-02-12 turns on several interconnected detection layers on the FortiGate 80F-DSL:

• Antivirus engine: Scans traffic against FortiGuard’s AV signature database, covering known malware, ransomware variants, spyware, and exploit payloads carried in HTTP, SMTP, FTP, and other inspected protocols.
• Mobile malware detection: Identifies malicious APKs and mobile-targeted payloads passing through the gateway, relevant when mobile devices connect through the FortiGate.
• FortiGate Cloud Sandbox: Submits suspicious files that bypass static signature detection to a cloud-based behavioral analysis environment. Threats identified in the sandbox feed back into FortiGuard intelligence for future signature updates across all subscribed FortiGate units.

Who needs this service

Any site where the FortiGate 80F-DSL passes file traffic from untrusted sources benefits from AMP. Email, web downloads, cloud sync traffic, and encrypted sessions carrying attachments are all vectors this service covers. Branch offices without dedicated endpoint protection get the most from gateway-level malware blocking. This is also a logical first activation on a newly deployed 80F-DSL: running AMP for one period provides clear visibility into the malware types hitting your perimeter before you add IPS or URL filtering.

Activation and delivery

FC-10-F80FD-100-02-12 is an electronic subscription license. No hardware is included. Once your order is confirmed, a registration key arrives by email. Apply it to the FortiGate 80F-DSL through the FortiCare or FortiCloud portal, and the AV engine and sandbox feeds activate. Electronic delivery is typically same business day for orders placed during business hours.

AMP alone vs. a bundle subscription

Advanced Malware Protection is the one FortiGuard service included across all three bundle tiers for the FortiGate 80F-DSL. If you plan to add IPS, URL filtering, or anti-spam within the year, a bundle subscription typically delivers AMP plus those additional services at a lower effective per-service cost than stacking individual licenses. The table below shows where AMP fits:

The ATP bundle is the entry point for teams that want managed malware intelligence without the full IPS and web filtering stack. UTP and Enterprise add further service layers if your perimeter requirements grow.
