Introduction to FWB_2000F-v600-build1489-FORTINET.out Software

This firmware package (FWB_2000F-v600-build1489-FORTINET.out) delivers critical security hardening for FortiWeb 2000F series web application firewalls under FortiOS 6.0.15, released on May 16, 2025. Designed for enterprise-level web traffic protection, it introduces adaptive machine learning threat detection and quantum-resistant cryptographic protocols while resolving 16 documented vulnerabilities from previous builds.

The update targets FortiWeb 2000F appliances with dual 40G QSFP28 interfaces and hardware-accelerated TLS 1.3 inspection modules. It maintains full compatibility with FortiGate 3000F/4000F controllers (6.0.15+) for unified Security Fabric policy management.
