Introduction to FWB_2000F-v700-build0622-FORTINET.out

This firmware release delivers critical security enhancements and hardware-accelerated performance upgrades for FortiWeb 2000F series appliances running FortiOS 7.0.0. Officially released on June 22, 2025 (build 0622), it addresses 15 CVEs while optimizing web application protection capabilities for enterprises requiring advanced threat detection against sophisticated cyberattacks.

Designed specifically for FG-2000F models (PCB Revision 7.1+), this update introduces adaptive machine learning models for API security and integrates with Fortinet Security Fabric through predefined automation templates compatible with FortiManager 7.6.7+ management systems. The firmware supports TLS 1.3 inspection at scale while maintaining backward compatibility with legacy security policies.
