Fortinet FortiCare Premium Support, 1-Year (FC5-10-0ACVM-248-02-12)

Organizations running FortiAuthenticator VM at large enterprise scale, covering up to 50,100 users, depend on uninterrupted MFA and SSO to keep their workforce authenticated around the clock. This 1-year FortiCare Premium Support contract (FC5-10-0ACVM-248-02-12) maintains that coverage with direct 24×7 access to Fortinet’s Technical Assistance Center, priority firmware updates, and continuity of the hardware replacement entitlement for the tier 5 VM platform.

Overview

FortiCare Premium Support for the FortiAuthenticator VM tier 5 platform is Fortinet’s highest support tier for this product line. Coverage includes 24×7 TAC access by phone and web portal, all firmware and feature updates released during the contract period, and advance hardware replacement entitlement for covered Fortinet platforms. At tier 5, the FortiAuthenticator VM is licensed for up to 50,100 users, positioning it for large enterprises where a single VM instance manages authentication across a broad user base using protocols including RADIUS, LDAP, SAML, and 802.1X. The 1-year term of FC5-10-0ACVM-248-02-12 covers 12 consecutive months from the activation date; renewal is required at the end of that window to maintain full entitlement to TAC support and firmware updates.

Who it suits

This SKU is a direct fit for large enterprise IT and security teams that have deployed FortiAuthenticator VM as a central identity broker for tens of thousands of accounts. It suits teams that prefer annual renewals, which allow them to revisit the user tier each cycle, upgrade to a tier 6 deployment if user counts approach 50,100, or adjust the term length. Organizations that align vendor support contracts with a 12-month budget cycle will find the 1-year term a natural match. It also fits IT teams in regulated industries where an annual contract review is a compliance checkpoint, since each renewal documents a current support entitlement for audit purposes.
