Introduction to FWB_100D-v600-build1117-FORTINET.out
This firmware release (v600-build1117) delivers critical security enhancements for Fortinet’s FortiWeb 100D series web application firewalls, designed to protect enterprise web assets from advanced cyber threats. As part of FortiOS 6.0 architecture, this build focuses on optimizing threat detection accuracy while maintaining compatibility with hybrid cloud environments. The update targets organizations requiring robust protection against OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, particularly those operating e-commerce platforms or API-driven services.
Compatible exclusively with FortiWeb 100D hardware models, this firmware supports automated policy synchronization with FortiManager 6.0.2+ controllers. Internal benchmarks indicate a 15% improvement in HTTP request inspection throughput compared to v600-build1103, especially for environments handling encrypted TLS 1.3 traffic.
