FortiSandbox

What FortiSandbox is

FortiSandbox is Fortinet’s threat detection and protection product for identifying and responding to emerging and unknown threats, including zero-days, ransomware, malware, and AI-based attacks. It analyzes files using static and dynamic techniques alongside purpose-built machine learning, artificial neural networks, and FortiGuard Labs threat intelligence. Fortinet says it can provide sub-second verdicts and real-time detection.

Organizations can deploy FortiSandbox as on-premises hardware, virtual machines, cloud-hosted offerings, or SaaS. Subscription options include SaaS, PaaS, and virtual appliance subscriptions; hardware bundles include licenses. FortiSandbox 5.2 is described as the latest sandbox firmware release and includes more than 70 new features. Its dynamic scans are described as up to six times faster, with capacity to analyze up to three times more suspicious files in the same time window.
