Introduction to FAZ_300G-v7.0.11-build0595-FORTINET.out
This enterprise-grade firmware release (v7.0.11-build0595) delivers critical security enhancements and operational optimizations for Fortinet’s FortiAnalyzer 300G series log management systems. Designed for hybrid network security operations, the update resolves 6 CVEs identified in previous versions while introducing AI-driven threat intelligence integration. Released on May 10, 2025, it synchronizes with FortiOS 7.8.6’s security fabric architecture for unified network visibility.
Engineered for multi-terabyte log processing demands, this build introduces real-time forensic analysis and cross-platform event normalization. Compatible exclusively with FortiAnalyzer-300G hardware (models FAZ-300G/FAZ-300G-XC), it requires FortiManager 7.6.5+ for centralized policy orchestration.
