Fortinet FortiGate 50G-SFP-PoE OT Security Service, 3-Year (FC-10-F50GP-159-02-36)

Some environments need standard FortiGuard bundles; others operate in industrial or operational technology networks where those bundles leave a real gap. The FortiGate 50G-SFP-PoE 3-Year OT Security Service (FC-10-F50GP-159-02-36) closes that gap for thirty-six months, activating FortiGuard Labs’ OT-specific detection, compliance dashboards, and virtual patching on a FortiGate 50G-SFP-PoE already deployed at the network edge. Subscription only, no hardware, delivered electronically to any country.

What this service activates

Three OT-focused capabilities come online for the full 36-month term once the license is applied to a registered FortiGate 50G-SFP-PoE:

• OT Device Detection: FortiGuard maintains an up-to-date OT device signature package that identifies industrial controllers, SCADA components, PLCs, HMIs, and other OT assets connected to the network, feeding the asset inventory visible in the FortiGate dashboard.
• OT Vulnerability Correlation and Virtual Patching: When new vulnerabilities are published against known OT devices, FortiGuard Labs publishes virtual patches automatically. The FortiGate applies IPS-based mitigations at the network layer to protect devices that cannot be patched at the OS or firmware level, which is common in industrial settings.
• OT Application Control and IPS Signatures: Dedicated signatures covering industrial protocols and applications, including Modbus, DNP3, IEC 60870, and others, let the firewall detect misuse or attack traffic targeting OT-specific communication channels.

FortiGuard Labs keeps the OT device signature database and virtual patch library current as new OT vulnerabilities and industrial malware campaigns emerge.

Who uses this service

This service applies directly to organizations running a FortiGate 50G-SFP-PoE at a site that has OT or industrial infrastructure: manufacturing plants, utilities, building management systems, or any environment mixing IT and OT networks at a branch or edge location. The FortiGate 50G-SFP-PoE is designed for distributed deployments, making it a natural fit for branch-level OT segmentation where a full data center chassis would be oversized.

Teams that already run a UTP or Enterprise subscription on their FortiGates benefit from knowing that OT Security is a separate add-on, not included in those bundles. If industrial visibility and virtual patching matter to the environment, this standalone service is the specific product that turns those capabilities on.

Activation and delivery

The license is issued electronically and registered by serial number to a specific FortiGate 50G-SFP-PoE. Once activated through the Fortinet support portal, OT signatures and virtual patch updates push to the appliance for the full three-year term. No physical shipment involved. A licensed and registered FortiGate 50G-SFP-PoE is required before activation.

Delivery is electronic. Orders received during business hours are typically processed the same day. The license applies globally regardless of the appliance’s physical location.
