SSL content scanning and inspection

Using SSL content scanning and inspection you can apply antivirus scanning, web

filtering, FortiGuard web filtering, spam filtering, data leak prevention (DLP), and content

archiving to HTTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, and SMTPS traffic. To perform SSL content

scanning and inspection, the FortiGate unit does the following:

• intercepts and decrypts HTTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, and SMTPS sessions between

clients and servers (FortiGate SSL acceleration speeds up decryption)

• applies content inspection to decrypted content, including:

• HTTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, and SMTPS Antivirus, DLP, and content archiving

• HTTPS web filtering and FortiGuard web filtering

• IMAPS, POP3S, and SMTPS spam filtering

• re-encrypts the sessions and forwards them to their destinations.
