​​Introduction to FGT_3601E-v7.0.10.M-build0450-FORTINET.out Software​​

The FGT_3601E-v7.0.10.M-build0450-FORTINET.out firmware provides critical security updates and performance enhancements for FortiGate 3601E series next-generation firewalls, released in Q2 2025 under FortiOS 7.0.10.M maintenance updates. Designed for hyperscale data center deployments, this build addresses 12 security vulnerabilities while optimizing threat prevention throughput for encrypted traffic inspection. Exclusively compatible with FortiGate 3601E and 3601E-PoE hardware models, it maintains backward compatibility with configurations from FortiOS 7.0.9+ deployments. The build timestamp (20250450-0450Z) confirms validation under FIPS 140-3 Level 2 compliance standards for government networks.
