Introduction to FGT_VM64_XEN-v7.0.7.F-build0367-FORTINET.out.CitrixXen.zip
This virtualization package delivers enterprise-grade security integration for Citrix XenServer environments, combining Fortinet’s FortiOS 7.0.7 with XenServer 7.2+ hypervisor optimizations. Released under Fortinet’s Q3 2025 security maintenance cycle, build 0367 resolves 14 documented vulnerabilities while enhancing virtualized threat inspection performance by 22% compared to previous builds.
Designed for hybrid cloud deployments, this virtual appliance supports Citrix XenServer’s advanced features including live migration and dynamic resource allocation. System administrators managing multi-tenant environments should prioritize installation before December 2025 to maintain compliance with NIST SP 800-193 platform integrity requirements.
