    Pricing information: Pricing consists of two dimensions:

    • $30 per month for each web ACL using the Fortinet Managed Rules, per region
    • $1.8 per million requests in each region

    Pricing examples:

    pricing example: 2x web acl in a single region (ie us-east-1)

    Managed rule group charges = $60.00 (2x units for 2x web ACLs) Managed rule group request charges = $1.80/million * 10 million = $18.00 Total AWS Marketplace charges = $78.00/month

    pricing example: 2x web acl in two regions (ie us-east-1 & us-east-2)

    AI Insights

     Info

    Dimensions summary

    You pay for this rule set through two usage-based charges that apply together. The first is a monthly charge in each region where you deploy, pro-rated by the hour. This covers keeping the managed rule group active in that region. The second is a charge per million web requests inspected in each region. This scales with the traffic your protected applications receive. You deploy separately in each AWS region that needs coverage, so both charges repeat per region. There is no upfront commitment; costs track your actual regions and request volume.

    Top-of-mind questions for buyers

    Version choice does not change how you are billed. Both charges still apply: the monthly per-region charge and the per-million-requests charge. Static versions receive no new signatures until you switch versions manually. Each static version is supported for up to six months before revocation and a 30-day grace period.
    A request is a single web request that the managed rule group inspects in a given region. Requests are counted per region and billed per million. Deploying to protect a global content delivery service applies globally; otherwise you count requests separately in each region where you add the rule group.
    Both charges apply together on the same invoice. The monthly per-region charge is fixed for each region where you deploy. The per-million-requests charge grows with your traffic. For applications with heavy request volume, the request charge usually dominates. For low-traffic applications spread across many regions, the monthly charges add up faster.

    Strong, Low-Maintenance Protection for AWS Workloads

    Reviewed on Aug 30, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    The biggest advantage is the combination of strong security coverage and ease of management. The preconfigured rules make it much easier to protect AWS workloads against common threats such as SQL injection, XSS, and known exploits without having to build and maintain everything from scratch. The integration with AWS WAF is straightforward, and the managed updates help keep protection aligned with new threats. Overall, it saves time while providing an additional layer of security for web applications and APIs.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    The main downside is that the rules can sometimes require tuning to avoid false positives, especially for applications with custom traffic patterns. It would also be helpful to have more detailed documentation and clearer guidance for fine-tuning rules for specific workloads. Pricing can also become a consideration as the number of protected resources grows.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Fortinet Managed Rules for AWS WAF helps us protect our web applications and APIs from common attacks without having to create and maintain WAF rules ourselves. It provides consistent security coverage against threats like SQL injection, XSS, and other known exploits while reducing the time we spend on security rule management. This lets our team focus more on application and infrastructure work while still maintaining a strong security posture.

    OP: AWS WAF | Know the real power

    Reviewed on Aug 30, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    The main reason we use Fortinet's managed rules is how easily they plug into our existing AWS setup to cover core security risks like SQL injection and cross-site scripting. Building and updating custom WAF rules by hand takes way too much time, so having Fortinet's team handle the threat intelligence and signature updates behind the scenes saves a massive headache. It gives our public-facing APIs a solid baseline defense right out of the box without forcing us to spend hours tweaking custom logic every time a new vulnerability drops.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    The biggest issue is dealing with false positives when you first turn the rules on. If you jump straight to blocking mode, legitimate traffic or unusual API payloads will definitely get caught and blocked. You end up having to run everything in Count mode for a while, dig through CloudWatch logs, and set up override rules to fix the false alarms before you can actually enforce blocks. Another downside is the lack of visibility into the actual underlying rule logic. Because the signatures are proprietary black boxes, troubleshooting why a specific request got flagged takes more time than it should. On top of that, cost can accumulate quickly if you are running these rules across high-traffic Application Load Balancers, since AWS charges for rule evaluations alongside the subscription cost.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    It solves the hassle of keeping web endpoints and open APIs safe from bad traffic, web scrapers, and common attack vectors without forcing us to build or patch security rules by hand. Because Fortinet handles threat signatures automatically, new vulnerabilities are covered right away, saving us from constantly checking security advisories just to tweak firewall settings. The biggest win for us is cut-down workload. We get solid, hands-off security built right into our cloud setup, which lets us put our time toward building features instead of sifting through network logs to craft custom filter rules. It simply gives us a dependable safety net for our web apps without adding extra day-to-day maintenance.

    FortiGuard-Powered Managed Rules That Stop SQLi and XSS with Zero Added Latency

    Reviewed on Aug 29, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    The automated threat intelligence powered by FortiGuard Labs is the biggest win for our team. We use the Fortinet OWASP Top 10 and Known Bad Inputs/Bots Rulesets on our public-facing ALBs. Instead of constantly monitoring new CVEs and manually writing complex regex rules in-house, the rule sets are updated automatically in the background. It effectively neutralizes SQLi, XSS, and automated vulnerability scanner probes without adding latency to our applications.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    While the protection is robust, diagnosing occasional false positives can be challenging due to the 'black-box' nature of managed rules. When a legitimate multi-step API request containing complex JSON payloads gets blocked, AWS WAF logs show the rule group and rule ID, but not the exact string or parameter that triggered the match. We have to spend extra time cross-referencing logs and writing custom label-based exception rules. It would be a huge improvement if Fortinet/AWS could provide more granular trigger explanations or context directly in the logs to speed up root-cause analysis.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Before implementing Fortinet Managed Rules, our security team struggled with manually tracking new CVEs and writing custom regex rules for our AWS WAF, which consumed 6–8 engineering hours each week and left a window of vulnerability during zero-day events. By switching to Fortinet Managed Rules, we now have automated, continuously updated threat intelligence applied directly to our CloudFront and ALB distributions. This has eliminated the operational overhead of rule maintenance, cut our vulnerability triage time by roughly 70%, and ensured our public-facing APIs are consistently shielded against OWASP Top 10 threats and automated exploit probes.
