FortiSandbox Cloud offers a more affordable alternative to a FortiSandbox appliance, since it is a cloud service that you do not need to host on-site. However, FortiSandbox Cloud does not offer the full range of features that a FortiSandbox appliance offers. See Appendix F - FortiCloud Sandbox.

Deny access to downloaded files if there is no FortiSandbox result. This may happen if FortiSandbox is offline.

File Submission Options

Submit all files executed on removable media, such as USB drives, to FortiSandbox for analysis.

Remediation Actions

Choose Quarantine or Alert & Notify for infected files.
