Question 220
A FortiOS 7.6 team examines: An audit finds a contractor connection still accepted days after its temporary service window ended. Select TWO complementary choices: the most appropriate corrective action AND the specific evidence confirming success.
Explanation
Correct Answers
For the observed situation (An audit finds a contractor connection still accepted days after its temporary service window ended), the most specific acceptance evidence is: Authorized ports work only during the permitted schedule and disallowed services fail in controlled tests. It validates the recommended response: Constrain firewall policies to the necessary service ports and supported schedules rather than broad always-on matching. This addresses the documented risk: An overly permissive service group or incorrect schedule window may grant continuous access to time-limited operations.
The reported FortiOS 7.6 condition is: An audit finds a contractor connection still accepted days after its temporary service window ended. The targeted administrative response is: Constrain firewall policies to the necessary service ports and supported schedules rather than broad always-on matching. The relevant failure risk is: An overly permissive service group or incorrect schedule window may grant continuous access to time-limited operations. Validate with: Authorized ports work only during the permitted schedule and disallowed services fail in controlled tests.
Incorrect Answers
Virtual IP destination nat for inbound services (2.2) would demonstrate or implement: A configured VIP without a matching permit or correct port mapping does not make the backend reachable securely. The case states: the most appropriate corrective action AND the specific evidence confirming success. The most direct paired action and test is: Authorized ports work only during the permitted schedule and disallowed services fail in controlled tests.
Fsso group filter and policy authorization (2.4) addresses another technical failure: A recognized domain user can still be allowed too broadly or denied if group selection and policy order differ. This choice can be useful for that problem, but it does not establish the Service and schedule restrictions control being assessed here.
Interactive user authentication policy design (2.3) would demonstrate or implement: An unauthenticated test is challenged appropriately, and the approved signed-in user receives only assigned access. The required paired action and test concerns Service and schedule restrictions; a passing result for this alternative could leave that requirement unresolved.
