What's New

FortiCloud Services version 24.1 includes the following new features and products:

What's new for FortiCloud Services

New Terms and Conditions workflow

All users are prompted to read and accept the Fortinet Inc. terms and conditions when logging into the FortiCloud Services portals. If the terms and conditions are changed or updated, users will be prompted to read them through and accept the changes before they can proceed. See the Creating an account in the FortiCloud Account guide or Marketplace in the Asset Management guide.

Enforcing two-factor authentication

Email users will be forced to enable two-factor authentication with the FortiToken mobile app if it has been enforced at the Organization or Account level. When logging into your email account, you will be prompted to set up two-factor authentication before you can proceed with logging in. Two-factor authentication is recommended to improve your security by forcing you to enter a security code when you log into the portals. See Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) in the IAM guide.

What's new for Asset Management

Marketplace FortiFlex point transfer

FortiPoints can be transferred to FortiFlex points in the Marketplace > Spending page. See Spending in the Asset Management guide.

The Marketplace now supports FortiClient EMS in the Marketplace > Spending page. See Spending in the Asset Management guide.

Managed FortiGate Service entitlement registration

When a new Managed FortiGate Service entitlement is registered, a banner is displayed to prompt the user to submit an onboarding request in the Managed FortiGate Service portal. The banner will only display if there is no Managed FortiGate Service entitlement already registered or the registered entitlement is expired. See Registering assets in the Asset Management guide.

What's new for FortiCare
