Fortinet FortiSIEM Subscription, 1-Year (FC4-10-SMGS1-1026-02-12)

When daily log volume crosses the 500GB threshold, FortiSIEM needs a matching capacity license to keep ingesting, correlating, and alerting without gaps. This 1-year SMGS1 subscription adds 500GB to 999GB of daily log capacity in 1GB increments, giving security teams on annual procurement cycles the flexibility to right-size their coverage and reassess throughput requirements before committing to a longer term.

Overview

The SMGS1 subscription tier covers FortiSIEM log ingestion from 500GB to 999GB per day, with capacity licensed in 1GB increments across that range. This is an add-on capacity license applied to an existing FortiSIEM VM or platform deployment, not a standalone product.

Each 1-year term includes HA Super licensing, which enables high-availability supervisor failover so that log collection, correlation, and alerting continue without interruption if a supervisor node fails. FortiCare Premium support is bundled for the full term, providing 24×7 technical assistance, firmware updates, and applicable hardware replacement entitlement.

This is a software subscription with electronic delivery and no geographic restriction. There is no hardware component and licensing is valid worldwide.

Who it suits

This 1-year term is the right choice for organizations that are actively scaling their SIEM deployment and prefer to validate throughput in the 500GB to 999GB band before locking in a multi-year commitment. It is well-matched to environments where log volumes are still growing alongside infrastructure expansion.

Typical buyers include enterprises with PCI-DSS, SOC 2, or similar compliance mandates that require centralized log retention, and MSSPs managing environments in this throughput band who bill and renew on annual cycles. Procurement teams that require annual budget justification for subscription costs will also find the 1-year term straightforward to approve and renew.
