Fortinet FortiMail 3200E Cloud Email API Connector Service, 1-Year (FC-10-M3K2E-409-02-12)

Organizations that have moved primary mail delivery to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace often find that MX-based gateway filtering requires routing all mail through an external hop before it reaches the cloud platform. The FortiMail 3200E Cloud Email API Connector eliminates that constraint. By connecting directly to the cloud platform’s native API rather than intercepting at the MX layer, it scans messages already sitting in user inboxes and can remediate them retroactively when a new threat indicator is published after delivery.

Overview

The API Connector integrates with Microsoft 365 via Microsoft Graph API, with Exchange on-premises via Exchange Web Services, and with Google Workspace via the Gmail API. Because scanning is post-delivery, there is no effect on MX routing or message latency during normal operation. When a threat is detected, the connector takes automated remediation action directly in the user’s mailbox: quarantine, delete, or label. Retroactive scanning is a capability specific to the API model. When a new threat indicator arrives, the connector can search for matching messages already delivered and remove them from inboxes, a response that is not possible with a traditional gateway. Both API Connector and gateway scanning modes can run simultaneously on the same 3200E for hybrid mail architectures.

Who it suits

Enterprises that have migrated primary delivery to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace and want FortiMail threat detection without altering MX records or mail-flow routing. Security teams that require post-delivery remediation, including the ability to pull already-delivered messages matching a newly published indicator of compromise. Organizations running a hybrid deployment with Exchange on-premises alongside a cloud platform who want unified scanning policy and reporting from a single console.
