Introduction to vsigupdate-OS6.4.0_91.09581.MMDB.pkg
This software package serves as Fortinet’s Mobile Malware Detection Database (MMDB) for FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls running FortiOS 6.4.0 and later. Designed for offline deployment scenarios, it provides critical signature updates to detect emerging mobile threats targeting Android and iOS platforms, including advanced persistent threats (APTs) and zero-day exploits.
The “91.09581” version identifier indicates January 2025 malware pattern updates with enhanced detection rules for banking trojans (e.g., Cerberus, Xenomorph) and spyware frameworks. While Fortinet typically pushes these updates automatically through FortiGuard services, this offline package remains essential for air-gapped networks or environments without direct internet access.
