The FortiMail 200F is a physical-appliance email security gateway from Fortinet designed for organizations that require enterprise-grade protection of their email infrastructure. It safeguards inbound and outbound email traffic against spam, phishing, malware, zero-day threats, business email compromise (BEC), impersonation, account takeover and other email-borne attacks. The appliance is integrated with Fortinet’s threat intelligence services (FortiGuard) and the Fortinet Security Fabric, enabling it to share indicators, detect emerging threats and respond proactively. The 200F model is sized for small to medium-business or branch-office use but still delivers high performance and enterprise-grade security.
Key benefits include multi-layered email threat protection (spam, malware, sandboxing, impersonation detection), flexible deployment (on-prem appliance, hybrid, cloud hybrid scenarios), seamless integration into an existing Fortinet-based security fabric, and support for cloud-email services such as Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace when used in conjunction with API-connectors.
