A secure online place to store and share files, similar to a shared drive, with version history and access rules by role.
Users store files in a FortiCloud-based drive with encryption, role-based access, version history and real-time co-editing, according to Fortinet’s announcement.
Administrators need control over where sensitive files go, including investigative records about inmates. A managed file service shows who has access and how each file changed.
- Limits investigative files to named staff.
- Keeps version history of changed files.
- Replaces email attachments and USB drives.

Fortinet described FortiDrive as a beta in its 2025 announcement. Confirm its current status, and don’t store criminal justice information there until your CJIS Systems Officer approves it.
- Role-based access limits each site or team to its own documents.
- Version history helps you restore altered files.
- Encryption at rest and in transit, per Fortinet’s announcement.
