FortiClient EMS is the component that shares ZTNA tag information through Security Fabric integration. ZTNA tags are synchronized from FortiClient EMS as inputs for the FortiGate application gateway. They can be used in ZTNA policies as security posture checks to ensure certain security criteria are met. FortiClient EMS can share ZTNA tags across multiple devices in the Fabric, such as FortiGate, FortiManager, and FortiAnalyzer. FortiClient EMS can also share ZTNA tags across multiple VDOMs on thesame FortiGate device. FortiClient EMS can be configured to control the ZTNA tag sharing behavior in the Fabric Devices settings1.

FortiGate is the device that enforces ZTNA policies using ZTNA tags. FortiGate can receive ZTNA tags from FortiClient EMS via Fabric Connector. FortiGate can also publish ZTNA services through the ZTNA portal, which allows users to access applications without installing FortiClient. FortiGate can also provide ZTNA inline CASB for SaaS application access control2.

FortiGate Access Proxy is a feature that enables FortiGate to act as a proxy for ZTNA traffic. FortiGate Access Proxy can be deployed in front of the application servers to provide ZTNA protection. FortiGate Access Proxy can also be deployed behind the application servers to provide ZTNA visibility. FortiGate Access Proxy can use ZTNA tags to identify and authenticate users and devices2.

FortiClient is the endpoint software that connects to ZTNA services. FortiClient can register ZTNA tags with FortiClient EMS based on the endpoint security posture. FortiClient can also use ZTNA tags to access ZTNA services published by FortiGate. FortiClient can also use ZTNA tags to access SaaS applications with ZTNA inline CASB2.

Administrators can use several third-party tools to deploy FortiClient:

Microsoft SCCM (System Center Configuration Manager): SCCM is a robust tool used for deploying software across large numbers of Windows-based systems. It supports deployment of FortiClient through its software distribution capabilities.

Microsoft Active Directory GPO (Group Policy Object): GPOs are used to manage user and computer settings in an Active Directory environment. Administrators can deploy FortiClient to multiple machines using GPO software installation settings.

These tools provide centralized and scalable methods for deploying FortiClient across numerous endpoints in an enterprise environment.

FortiClient provides comprehensive endpoint protection for your Windows-based, Mac-based, and Linuxbased desktops, laptops, file servers, and mobile devices such as iOS and Android. It helps you to safeguard your systems with advanced security technologies, all of which you can manage from a single management console.

Understanding FortiClient EMS Components:

FortiClient EMS manages and configures endpoint security settings, while FortiClient installed on the endpoint enforces protection and checks security posture.

Evaluating Responsibilities:

FortiClient performs the actual enforcement of security policies and checks the security posture of the endpoint.

Conclusion:

The component responsible for enforcing protection and checking security posture is FortiClient (C).

Based on the settings shown in the exhibit, FortiClient is configured to scan files as they are downloaded or copied to the system. This means that if a user copies files to the “Resources” folder, which is not listed under exclusions, FortiClient will scan these files for infections. The exclusion path mentioned in the settings, "C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\Resources", indicates that any files copied to this specific folder will not be scanned, but since the question implies that the “Resources” folder is not the same as the excluded path, FortiClient will indeed scan the files for infections.

Understanding FortiClient Features:

FortiClient endpoint security includes several features aimed at protecting and managing endpoints.

Evaluating Feature Set:

Vulnerability management is a key feature of FortiClient, helping to identify and address vulnerabilities (B).

IPsec is supported for secure VPN connections (D).

Real-time protection is crucial for detecting and preventing threats in real-time (E).

Eliminating Incorrect Options:

Data Loss Prevention (DLP) (A) is typically managed by FortiGate or FortiMail.

L2TP (C) is a protocol used for VPNs but is not specifically a feature of FortiClient endpoint security.

Understanding FortiSandbox Integration:

In a FortiSandbox integration, various remediation options are available for handling suspicious files.

Evaluating Remediation Options:

The remediation option for alerting and notifying without blocking access or waiting for results is essential to understand.

Conclusion:

The correct action for the remediation option in this context is to alert and notify only.

The anti-exploit detection protects vulnerable endpoints from unknown exploit attacks. FortiClient monitors the behavior of popular applications, such as web browsers (Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox, Opera), Java/Flash plug-ins, Microsoft Office applications, and PDF readers, to detect exploits that use zero-day or unpatched vulnerabilities to infect the endpoint. Once detected, FortiClient terminates the compromised application process.

Block Malicious Website has nothing to do with infected files. Since Realtime Protection is OFF, it will be allowed without being scanned.

Based on the settings shown in the exhibit:

Realtime Protection:OFF

Dynamic Threat Detection:OFF

Block malicious websites:ON

Threats Detected:75

The "Realtime Protection" setting is crucial for preventing infected files from being downloaded and executed. Since "Realtime Protection" is OFF, FortiClient will not actively scan files being downloaded. The setting "Block malicious websites" is intended to prevent access to known malicious websites but does not scan files for infections.

Therefore, when a user tries to download an infected file, FortiClient will allow the file to download without scanning it due to the Realtime Protection being OFF.
