Fortinet FortiGateRugged 70G Secure RMA, 1-Year (FC-10-GR70P-301-02-12)

Fortinet’s Secure RMA service answers a specific compliance requirement: physical destruction of failed hardware at the customer’s facility, certified and documented. The FC-10-GR70P-301-02-12 subscription provides this entitlement for the FortiGateRugged 70G for one year — a Fortinet technician comes on-site, destroys the failed unit, and produces the paperwork your audit team needs.

What Secure RMA Covers

Secure RMA is designed for environments where physical hardware custody is a compliance requirement — classified government networks, critical infrastructure, and facilities operating under HIPAA, ITAR, or DoD security policies. Under this service, Fortinet deploys a certified technician to physically destroy the failed FortiGateRugged 70G at your site, provides official destruction documentation and chain-of-custody records, and processes a replacement unit after on-site destruction is complete. No data-bearing components leave the premises.

This is a subscription license delivered electronically. Activation registers the RMA entitlement against your device serial number in the Fortinet Support Portal.

Who Needs This

Any organization running a FortiGateRugged 70G where hardware cannot leave the building needs Secure RMA coverage. That includes federal agencies, utilities under NERC CIP, defense contractors, healthcare facilities with strict PHI requirements, and manufacturers on air-gapped OT networks. For commercial deployments without these constraints, standard Priority RMA (210/211/212) typically covers the need at lower cost.
