Question 510
A FortiOS 7.6 team examines: A policy owner needs a limited false-positive exception with a dated audit trail and follow-up test. Select TWO complementary choices: the most appropriate corrective action AND the specific evidence confirming success.
Explanation
Correct Answers
For the observed situation (A policy owner needs a limited false-positive exception with a dated audit trail and follow-up test), the most specific acceptance evidence is: A targeted approved application completes while an unauthorized signature test remains blocked after the adjustment. It validates the recommended response: Investigate application-control event signatures and client traffic evidence before tuning a narrowly defined false-positive exception. This addresses the documented risk: A broad category override can silently re-allow truly prohibited software while hiding identification errors.
The reported FortiOS 7.6 condition is: A policy owner needs a limited false-positive exception with a dated audit trail and follow-up test. The targeted administrative response is: Investigate application-control event signatures and client traffic evidence before tuning a narrowly defined false-positive exception. The relevant failure risk is: A broad category override can silently re-allow truly prohibited software while hiding identification errors. Validate with: A targeted approved application completes while an unauthorized signature test remains blocked after the adjustment.

Flow versus proxy inspection processing model (3.2) addresses another technical failure: Assuming proxy-only functions are present in flow mode can leave desired inspection capabilities unavailable. This choice can be useful for that problem, but it does not establish the Application signatures and false-positive review control being assessed here.
Ips signature sensor and firewall attachment (3.5) would demonstrate or implement: A controlled benign vendor-provided IPS test triggers the approved alert or block action on the matched policy. This case instead tests Application signatures and false-positive review; the choice measures or changes another part of the system.
TLS inspection exceptions and sensitive traffic (3.1) would demonstrate or implement: Overly broad exclusions can create uninspected channels; blanket interception can break approved confidential services. The required paired action and test concerns Application signatures and false-positive review; a passing result for this alternative could leave that requirement unresolved.
