1. Introduction to FGT_60F-v7.2.6.F-build1575-FORTINET.out

This firmware package delivers FortiOS 7.2.6.F for the FortiGate 60F series, an enterprise-grade firewall solution designed for small-to-medium businesses requiring 1Gbps+ threat protection throughput. Released in Q2 2025 under Fortinet’s Feature Release (F-build) cycle, it addresses 12 CVEs from Fortinet’s 2025 Q1 security advisories while optimizing performance for the 60F’s Security Processing Unit (SPU).

The 7.2.6.F-build1575 version enhances SD-WAN capabilities and IoT device visibility, maintaining backward compatibility with FortiManager 7.6.3+ and FortiAnalyzer 7.4.5+ management platforms. This update specifically benefits organizations requiring NIST CSF 2.0 compliance in distributed workforce environments.
