Fortinet FortiGateRugged 70G Secure RMA, 3-Year (FC-10-GR70P-301-02-36)

For facilities operating under strict data-disposal mandates, standard RMA logistics — ship the failed device back to Fortinet — create a compliance gap. The FC-10-GR70P-301-02-36 subscription covers your FortiGateRugged 70G with Fortinet’s Secure RMA for three years: on-site hardware destruction by a certified technician, with documented chain-of-custody records, so the device never leaves your premises.

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.
