Question 50
When validating a security detection workflow, the team notes: A partner analyst who should see only one customer's logs can switch into other customers' ADOMs because the administrative profile was too broad. Which action directly fixes the identified FortiAnalyzer workflow issue?
Explanation
Correct Answer
The underlying cause is: An overly broad ADOM assignment breaks the logical security boundary even when device logging and database storage are otherwise functioning. The correct response is: Restrict the administrator's ADOM assignments and privileges to the authorized tenant and test effective access. Confirm by checking: The analyst can search the permitted customer logs but cannot open another customer's device or log inventory.
Incorrect Answers
That intervention addresses collector mode mistaken for analysis mode, where Collector mode concentrates on receiving and forwarding or retaining logs and does not offer the full local analysis functions available in Analyzer mode. Here, the relevant failure is instead: An overly broad ADOM assignment breaks the logical security boundary even when device logging and database storage are otherwise functioning.
That intervention addresses analyzer collector downstream topology, where The collection tier and the analytics tier can hold different operational functions and storage responsibilities in a distributed deployment. In this question the necessary remedy is “Restrict the administrator's ADOM assignments and privileges to the authorized tenant and test effective access”, which this alternative does not provide.
That intervention addresses fabric adom for expanded soc analytics, where Some FortiAnalyzer SOC analytics functions depend on a Fabric ADOM and its configured log sources, not merely a licensed user account. The observed condition is a partner analyst who should see only one customer's logs can switch into other customers' ADOMs because the administrative profile was too broad; this mechanism addresses another problem.
