Question 430
A FortiOS 7.6 team examines: A department needs review evidence that productivity website categories are monitored but permitted. Select TWO complementary choices: the most appropriate corrective action AND the specific evidence confirming success.
Explanation
Correct Answers
The reported FortiOS 7.6 condition is: A department needs review evidence that productivity website categories are monitored but permitted. The targeted administrative response is: Apply a licensed FortiGuard web-filter profile with appropriate category actions to the correct user firewall policy. The relevant failure risk is: Without current category intelligence or the right profile association, disallowed websites may still pass. Validate with: Approved test URLs show expected category names and policy actions in the FortiGate web-filter events.
For the observed situation (A department needs review evidence that productivity website categories are monitored but permitted), the most specific acceptance evidence is: Approved test URLs show expected category names and policy actions in the FortiGate web-filter events. It validates the recommended response: Apply a licensed FortiGuard web-filter profile with appropriate category actions to the correct user firewall policy. This addresses the documented risk: Without current category intelligence or the right profile association, disallowed websites may still pass.
Incorrect Answers
TLS inspection exceptions and sensitive traffic (3.1) would demonstrate or implement: Approved sensitive flows work under narrow exclusions while ordinary eligible web traffic remains inspected. The case states: A department needs review evidence that productivity website categories are monitored but permitted. The most direct paired action and test is: Apply a licensed FortiGuard web-filter profile with appropriate category actions to the correct user firewall policy.
Application control signature matching (3.3) would demonstrate or implement: A generic port allow does not distinguish approved from prohibited applications sharing encrypted or common ports. This choice can be useful for that problem, but it does not establish the Fortiguard web category filtering control being assessed here.
Ips signature sensor and firewall attachment (3.5) addresses another technical failure: An IPS profile that is absent from the matched allow rule cannot block a known threat against that traffic. The paired-answer requirement concerns Fortiguard web category filtering; this alternative does not provide the matching intervention and separate acceptance evidence.
