Fortinet FortiClient VPN/ZTNA Agent Subscription, 5-Year (FC1-10-EMS05-428-01-60)

Five years is the longest available term for the EMS05-428 VPN/ZTNA Agent Subscription, covering 25 endpoints for the full period under a single purchase. FC1-10-EMS05-428-01-60 is the right choice for organizations with long budget horizons and stable endpoint counts that want to minimize procurement touchpoints over the coverage period.

What this subscription covers

FC1-10-EMS05-428-01-60 activates VPN and Zero Trust Network Access agent capabilities on up to 25 enrolled endpoints for five consecutive years. VPN support includes SSL-VPN and IPsec tunnels, providing encrypted remote access over any network. ZTNA evaluates device posture before granting access to each protected application, using attributes such as patch status, OS version, and security compliance. Endpoints that fail posture evaluation are denied access regardless of user credentials. FortiClient sits within the Fortinet Security Fabric, making posture data available to FortiGate firewalls for real-time, per-session policy decisions across the 25 covered endpoints.

Seat bands and minimum order

This subscription uses the FC1 seat band, which covers up to 25 endpoints. The EMS05-428 line is available in four bands for teams of varying sizes; the table below shows all options. No minimum order quantity applies beyond the band floor.

How FortiClient is deployed

FortiClient EMS is the management platform that distributes agent configurations, monitors posture, and issues ZTNA access tags to enrolled endpoints. In this SKU, EMS is hosted by Fortinet on FortiCloud, so no on-premises server infrastructure is required. Administrators use the FortiCloud portal to define endpoint profiles and ZTNA policies, then deploy the FortiClient agent to up to 25 devices. The license is activated electronically; there is no hardware or physical shipment.

Who it fits

Organizations with stable deployments of up to 25 endpoints and multi-year IT planning cycles get the most value from the 5-year term. It suits small businesses, branch offices, and remote-team environments where endpoint counts are unlikely to exceed the FC1 band ceiling within the coverage window. Existing FortiGate users benefit from Security Fabric integration, with ZTNA posture tags from FortiClient agents informing FortiGate access decisions automatically.
