FortiGate-1000D/1500D

FIPS 140-2 certificate #2783 · Fortinet, Inc. · data as of 2026-09-03

FortiGate-1000D/1500D, from Fortinet, Inc., holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #2783 at overall level 2. The validation is historical: agencies may keep the module in existing systems but not buy it new. Below are its validation history, algorithm certificates and security policy, drawn from the NIST CMVP entry.

Historical. Moved to historical list due to sunsetting. Federal agencies may reference historical validations for existing systems only, not for new procurement.
Caveat: When operated in FIPS mode with the tamper evident seals installed as indicated in the Security Policy and configured according to the Entropy Token Section of the Security Policy. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy. There is no assurance of the minimum strength of generated keys
