The Fortinet FortiWeb 100E is a Web Application Firewall (WAF) that inspects HTTP/HTTPS traffic to protect web applications and APIs from OWASP Top 10 attacks, bot abuse, and zero-day exploits. It is typically deployed by small businesses or small remote offices protecting a single web application.

The FortiWeb 100E is rated for up to 50 Mbps of protected WAF throughput. Actual throughput depends on which inspection features (SSL offload, deep content inspection, bot mitigation) are enabled.

The 100E reached End of Sale on 2024-05-30 and is no longer available for new purchase; Fortinet support runs through 2029-05-30. We recommend the current-generation FortiWeb 100F for new deployments.

Yes. FortiWeb supports Active-Passive and Active-Active HA clustering so you can eliminate single points of failure in front of production web applications.

FortiWeb models scale by throughput, port density, and storage rather than feature set — the full WAF, bot mitigation, and API protection feature set is available across the line. Choose the FortiWeb 100E based on your traffic volume and required interface types; see the comparison table below for the full lineup.
