Licensing

FortiClient Cloud requires the following licenses:

• FortiClient Cloud subscription: Each FortiCloud account that will access FortiClient Cloud must be registered with its own FortiClient Cloud subscription.
• Per-endpoint: FortiClient Cloud supports per-endpoint licensing. You must purchase a license for each endpoint that FortiClient Cloud will manage.

  If you have FortiCare Premium or Elite contracts registered to your devices in FortiCloud (excluding FortiFlex/FortiPoints, EA, and FortiSASE contracts), you are entitled to three complimentary FortiClient Cloud seats per device. See the FortiGate Cloud documentation for detailed instructions about viewing and activating the complimentary seats.

  The following FortiClient license types are available (for both per-endpoint and per-user licensing):

  • Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)
  • Endpoint Protection Platform/Advanced Persistent Threat
  • Managed Endpoint Security Services
  • FortiGuard Endpoint Forensic Analysis. See Requesting forensic analysis on an endpoint.
  • Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR)
  • Extended Detection & Response (XDR)

  When registering the license contract, you must specify that the endpoints or users will be managed using FortiClient Cloud, as Deploying FortiClient Cloud describes.

  Registering a ZTNA license for FortiClient Cloud management does not support all features supported for on-premise EMS. See Limitations for the list of supported features.
