The FortiGate unit contains the wildlist antivirus database. It is used to detect viruses in
network traffic. In addition to the wildlist antivirus database, which contains actively
spreading viruses, some newer FortiGate models are also equipped with an extended
antivirus database, which contains viruses that are not considered to be actively
spreading. If required, you can enable this feature to allow the FortiGate unit to scan for
non-active viruses. For details, see
