Keep FortiGate-VM deployments protected with a 3-year FortiGate Cloud Advanced S subscription built for 16 CPU environments. This license is designed for teams that need to maintain security operations across virtualized infrastructure without adding appliance overhead. It supports centralized cloud-based oversight for policy management, visibility, and SecOps workflows that help security teams stay ahead of changing traffic patterns and threat activity. For infrastructure groups running critical workloads in private cloud, hybrid cloud, or virtualized data center environments, subscription-based protection keeps the firewall stack current while reducing the operational burden of local management. Fortinet’s cloud-delivered approach is a strong fit when consistency, control, and administrative efficiency matter more than hardware footprint. This subscription is well suited to organizations standardizing on FortiGate-VM for segmentation, east-west traffic control, and perimeter enforcement in software-defined environments. The 3-year term supports planning stability and helps align security spend with longer refresh cycles. If your team needs to extend the value of an existing FortiGate-VM deployment while maintaining disciplined security operations, this license provides a clear path forward.
