Introduction to FGT_3000D-v7.0.15.M-build0632-FORTINET.out
This firmware package delivers FortiOS 7.0.15.M for FortiGate 3000D enterprise firewalls, addressing critical vulnerabilities while enhancing network performance for high-traffic environments. Released under Fortinet’s Q2 2025 security advisory cycle, build 0632 focuses on hardening SSL-VPN interfaces and management console protections against advanced persistent threats (APTs).
Designed for large enterprises requiring 40Gbps firewall throughput, the 3000D model now supports threat protection for 5,000+ concurrent connections. This update aligns with NIST SP 800-193 firmware resilience guidelines and ISO 27001:2025 compliance requirements.
