FortiGate Next Generation Firewall utilizes purpose-built security processors and threat intelligence security services from FortiGuard labs to deliver top-rated protection and high performance, including encrypted traffic.
This article explains the reason for getting the warning 'System file integrity monitor check failed!' when setting up a new FortiGate-VM.
Scope
FortiGate-VM.
Solution
It is expected in v7.0.16 and v7.6.1. The minimum Security level for VM models has been updated to level 1 (it used to be level 0) and the maximum to 2, which will print out warning messages.
The following command can be used to check the Security level of the FortiGate-VM:
get sys status Version: FortiGate-VM64-KVM v7.6.0,build3401,240724 (GA.F) First GA patch build date: 240724 Security Level: 2 <----- Security Level is 2 for this VM. Firmware Signature: certified Virus-DB: 1.00000(2018-04-09 18:07)
