TheFortiGuard forensics analysis featureon FortiSASE is designed to help customersidentify and mitigate potential risks to their network. This feature provides detailed insights into suspicious activities, threats, and anomalies detected by FortiSASE. By analyzing logs, traffic patterns, and threat intelligence, FortiGuard forensics enables administrators to investigate incidents, understand their root causes, and take proactive measures to secure the network.

Here’s why the other options are incorrect:

A. It can help troubleshoot user-to-application performance issues:Performance troubleshooting is typically handled by features like Digital Experience Monitoring (DEM) or application performance monitoring tools, not forensics analysis.

C. It can monitor endpoint resources in real-time:Real-time endpoint monitoring is a function of endpoint security solutions like FortiClient or FortiEDR, not FortiGuard forensics analysis.

D. It is a 24x7x365 monitoring service of your FortiSASE environment:While Fortinet offers managed services for continuous monitoring, FortiGuard forensics analysis is not a dedicated monitoring service. Instead, it focuses on post-incident investigation and risk mitigation.

When accessing the FortiSASE portal for the first time, an administrator must select data center locations for the following FortiSASE components:

Endpoint Management:

The data center location for endpoint management ensures that endpoint data and policies are managed and stored within the chosen geographical region.

Points of Presence (PoPs):

Points of Presence (PoPs) are the locations where FortiSASE services are delivered to users. Selecting PoP locations ensures optimal performance and connectivity for users based on their geographical distribution.

Logging:

The data center location for logging determines where log data is stored and managed. This is crucial for compliance and regulatory requirements, as well as for efficient log analysis and reporting.

If the daily summary report generated by FortiSASE contains very little data, one possible explanation is that the "Log allowed traffic" setting is configured to log only "Security Events" for all policies. This configuration limits the amount of data logged, as it only includes security events and excludes normal allowed traffic.

Log Allowed Traffic Setting:

The "Log allowed traffic" setting determines which types of traffic are logged.

When set to "Security Events," only traffic that triggers a security event (such as a threat detection or policy violation) is logged.

Impact on Report Data:

If the log setting excludes regular allowed traffic, the amount of data captured and reported is significantly reduced.

This results in reports with minimal data, as only security-related events are included.

Theagentless remote user internet accessuse case is designed to minimize individual endpoint configuration. In this scenario, FortiSASE provides secure internet access without requiring the installation of an agent on the endpoint device. This approach is particularly useful for environments with unmanaged devices or temporary users, as it eliminates the need for complex configurations on each endpoint. Instead, security policies are enforced at the network level, ensuring consistent protection without relying on endpoint-specific software.

Here’s why the other options are incorrect:

A. Site-based remote user internet access:This use case involves securing internet access for users at a specific site or location, typically through a gateway or firewall. While it simplifies configuration for all users at that site, it does not specifically minimize individual endpoint configuration for remote users.

C. SIA for SSL VPN remote users:SSL VPN requires users to connect to the corporate network via a client or browser-based interface. This approach often involves additional configuration on the endpoint, such as installing and configuring the SSL VPN client.

D. SIA using ZTNA:Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) focuses on verifying the identity and posture of devices before granting access to resources. While ZTNA enhances security, it may require endpoint agents or posture checks, which involve some level of endpoint configuration.

The unified FortiClient component of FortiSASE facilitates the always-on security measure required for ensuring that all remote user endpoints are always connected and protected.

Unified FortiClient:

FortiClient is a comprehensive endpoint security solution that integrates with FortiSASE to provide continuous protection for remote user endpoints.

It ensures that endpoints are always connected to the FortiSASE infrastructure, even when users are off the corporate network.

Always-On Security:

The unified FortiClient maintains a persistent connection to FortiSASE, enforcing security policies and protecting endpoints against threats at all times.

This ensures compliance with the cybersecurity policy requiring constant connectivity and protection for remote users.

The Secure Internet Access (SIA) use case that minimizes individual workstation or device setup is SIA for agentless remote users. This use case does not require installing FortiClient on endpoints or configuring explicit web proxy settings on web browser-based endpoints, making it the simplest and most efficient deployment.

SIA for Agentless Remote Users:

Agentless deployment allows remote users to connect to the SIA service without needing to install any client software or configure browser settings.

This approach reduces the setup and maintenance overhead for both users and administrators.

Minimized Setup:

Without the need for FortiClient installation or explicit proxy configuration, the deployment is straightforward and quick.

Users can securely access the internet with minimal disruption and administrative effort.

Based on the provided exhibits, the reason why the Win7-Pro endpoint can no longer access the internet through FortiSASE is due to exceeding the total vulnerability detected threshold. This threshold is used to determine if a device is compliant with the security requirements to access the network.

Endpoint Compliance:

FortiSASE monitors endpoint compliance by assessing various security parameters, including the number of vulnerabilities detected on the device.

The compliance status is indicated by the ZTNA tags and the vulnerabilities detected.

Vulnerability Threshold:

The exhibit shows that Win7-Pro has 176 vulnerabilities detected, whereas Win10-Pro has 140 vulnerabilities.

If the endpoint exceeds a predefined vulnerability threshold, it may be restricted from accessing the network to ensure overall network security.

Impact on Network Access:

Since Win7-Pro has exceeded the vulnerability threshold, it is marked as non-compliant and subsequently loses internet access through FortiSASE.

The FortiSASE endpoint profile enforces this compliance check to prevent potentially vulnerable devices from accessing the internet.

Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) private access use cases focus on providing secure and controlled access to private applications without exposing them to the public internet. The following two statements accurately describe ZTNA private access use cases:

The security posture of the device is secure (Option A):ZTNA enforces strict access controls based on the principle of least privilege. Before granting access to private applications, ZTNA evaluates the security posture of the device (e.g., whether it is patched, compliant, and free of malware). Only devices that meet the required security standards are granted access, ensuring that the device is secure before allowing private access.

All TCP-based applications are supported (Option C):ZTNA supports all TCP-based applications, enabling secure access to a wide range of private applications, including legacy systems and custom-built applications. This flexibility makes ZTNA suitable for organizations with diverse application environments.

Here’s why the other options are incorrect:

B. All FortiSASE user-based deployments are supported:While FortiSASE supports various deployment scenarios, not all user-based deployments are automatically compatible with ZTNA. Specific configurations and requirements must be met to enable ZTNA functionality.

D. Data center redundancy is offered:Data center redundancy is unrelated to ZTNA private access use cases. Redundancy typically pertains to infrastructure design and failover mechanisms, not access control methodologies like ZTNA.
