Fortinet FortiWiFi 30G AI-Based Inline Malware Prevention, 1-Year (FC-10-FW30G-577-02-12)

Signature scanning only catches what it already knows. The harder problem is the file no scanner has seen before. The FortiWiFi 30G 1-Year AI-Based Inline Malware Prevention service (FC-10-FW30G-577-02-12) takes on that gap, using machine-learning models that inspect files inline and return a verdict in well under a second, blocking unknown and zero-day malware in real time before it reaches a user on the wired or wireless network behind the 30G. It is a subscription license only, with no hardware and electronic delivery worldwide.

What this service adds

Inline Malware Prevention widens the FortiWiFi 30G’s anti-malware coverage from known threats to unknown ones, without waiting on a sandbox detonation cycle:

• Real-time inline verdicts: files are judged as they pass through the firewall, and malicious ones are stopped on the spot rather than flagged after they land.
• AI and machine-learning detection: models trained by FortiGuard Labs recognize the traits of malware they have never seen, including freshly built and emerging variants.
• Zero-day and unknown-file focus: the service targets exactly the category signatures miss, the first-seen sample with no known hash yet.
• Sub-second decisions: verdicts return fast enough to keep inline blocking practical on a live link, so protection does not slow the wired or wireless users behind the 30G.

Who needs the standalone service

This license fits when inline prevention against unknown malware is the specific layer being added to a FortiWiFi 30G that already carries other coverage, such as an active IPS or antivirus subscription and a FortiCare contract. It is the right buy when you want to bolt real-time zero-day blocking onto an existing setup rather than re-purchasing a whole bundle. If the 30G has little active protection yet, a bundle is the more economical place to start.

Standalone service vs. the subscription bundles

AI-Based Inline Malware Prevention is bundled only at the Enterprise tier; it is not part of the ATP or UTP packages, which lean on cloud sandboxing for unknown-threat detection instead. Buying this license adds the inline prevention layer on its own. The table below shows where this service sits and what each bundle tier includes around it:

If the goal is to put the FortiWiFi 30G on full coverage, the Enterprise subscription (FC-10-FW30G-809-02-12) already includes this inline prevention service, while the UTP subscription (FC-10-FW30G-950-02-12) covers the broad web and network layers without it. This standalone license is the way to add inline prevention to a device you do not want to move onto Enterprise.

Activation and delivery

The license is issued electronically and registered to one FortiWiFi 30G by serial number. Once applied, the inline malware models and updates push to the appliance for the full twelve-month term. Nothing ships, and a valid 30G is required before activation.

Choosing the one-year term

A twelve-month license is the straightforward way to add inline prevention to a FortiWiFi 30G and judge the difference it makes over a full year before committing further. When it comes up for renewal, the three- and five-year terms hold the same protection at a lower cost per year.
