Introducing FortiMail 6.2

FortiMail 6.2.0 has been approved and is being distributed to the support site.  This release adds several new features including:  

MS Office 365 Active Threat Remediation FortiMail can now perform post-delivery on-demand scan of the email on MS Office 365 out of band using the MS Graph API (License required). Real-time scan will be added in future releases. 

 

FortiIsolator integration FortiMail is now able to participate in the security fabric with FortiIsolator.  FortiMail can rewrite URLs on a per category basis to FortiIsolator for zero trust browser isolation.

 

Fortinet Security Fabric Added support for the new security fabric integration using in FortiOS 6.2. Note that previous integration with FortiOS 6.0 is no longer supported.

 

Compliance enhancements In order to comply with compliance standards such as GDPR, the following new features have been added: - Detailed  log of all configuration changes - Detailed  log of all actions performed by an admin user on queues and quarantines - Log of all search terms used

 

GeoIP integration GeoIP database can be used in IP policies for geography-based filtering. Also displays the GeoIP information on the GUI / log embellishment.

 

Attachment Metadata Support for DLP filtering based on attachment metadata.

 

TLS 1.3 support Starting from 6.2 release, TLS 1.3 is supported for HTTPS access to FortiMail.  SSO support In addition to webmail, SSO is also supported on admin GUI logon now.

 

New variables in email template The Envelope From address and the Message-ID attribute can now be added as a variable in the quarantine report template. Local host and local domain variables can be added in the email notification template. The variable %%MESSAGE_ID%% is renamed to %%EMAIL_ID%% to avoid confusion. The email ID is assigned by FortiMail to the quarantined email while the message ID is the standard message ID in the email header.

    Thanx for the update Carl.

     

    Do you see any chance there will be a single O365 connector on a 200F/VM01 Modell? Thats a big market here in Europe for smaller enterprises, where the bigger models won't fit into budgets..

    Hello Carl,

     

    great news that all those feature are now out there. Can confirm the O365 API feature will only be starting with 900F and VM04? Price lists show the license starting with 400F and VM02 .
