Fortinet has revamped its anti-virus engine via an update of its firmware called Fortinet FortiOS v2.8 MR11 used on the FortiGate security appliances, which now uses dual-pass scanning techniques that improves AV security as well as overall product performance. Fortinet now scans e-mails as objects, rather than waiting for the entire message to be buffered before performing a scan. As expected, the new release now avoids use of Trend Micros patent (600 Patent), which has been the subject of an ongoing International Trade Commission investigation.”]
