Introduction to FWB_100D-v600-build1235-FORTINET.out

This firmware update (build 1235) delivers essential security enhancements for Fortinet’s ​​FortiWeb 100D​​ web application firewall appliance, designed for small-to-medium enterprises requiring OWASP Top 10 threat mitigation and PCI-DSS compliance. Released on May 15, 2025, the v6.0.0 update introduces machine learning-powered anomaly detection capabilities aligned with NIST SP 800-204B standards for federal cloud systems.

The update specifically addresses:

  • Real-time API security monitoring for hybrid cloud environments
  • Automated threat intelligence synchronization with FortiGate 700G firewalls
  • Regulatory compliance requirements for healthcare (HIPAA) and retail (PCI-DSS 4.0) sectors

Compatible exclusively with FortiWeb 100D hardware models running FortiOS 6.x+, this firmware maintains backward compatibility with existing security profiles while introducing new behavioral analysis engines.
