Pass the Fortinet Network Security Expert FCP_FCT_AD-7.4 Questions and answers with Dumpstech

Understanding Multi-Tenancy Mode:

Multi-tenancy mode allows multiple independent sites or tenants to be managed from a single FortiClient EMS instance.

Evaluating Benefits:

Licenses can be shared among sites, making it cost-effective (B).

It provides granular access and segmentation, allowing for detailed control and separation between tenants (D).

Eliminating Incorrect Options:

Separate host servers managing each site (A) is not a feature of multi-tenancy mode.

The fabric connector's use of an IP address (C) is unrelated to multi-tenancy benefits.

Requirement Analysis:

The administrator needs to maintain a software vulnerability scan on endpoints without showing the feature on FortiClient.

Evaluating Options:

Disabling the feature in the deployment package or endpoint profile would remove the functionality entirely, which is not desired.

Using the default endpoint profile may not meet the specific requirement of hiding the feature.

Clicking the hide icon on the vulnerability scan profile assigned to the endpoint will keep the feature active but hidden from the user's view.

Conclusion:

The correct action is to click the hide icon on the vulnerability scan profile assigned to the endpoint (C).

FortiClient supports initiating the following VPN types from the Windows command prompt:

IPSec VPN:FortiClient can establish IPSec VPN connections using command line instructions.

SSL VPN:FortiClient also supports initiating SSL VPN connections from the Windows command prompt.

These two VPN types can be configured and initiated using specific command line parameters provided by FortiClient.

Understanding Compliance Rules:

The compliance rule for the sales department needs to be enforced dynamically.

Enforcing Compliance:

FortiGate is responsible for enforcing compliance by integrating with FortiClient EMS to apply dynamic access control based on compliance status.

Conclusion:

The Fortinet device that will enforce compliance with dynamic access control is the FortiGate.

Based on the Remote-Client status shown in the exhibit:

Endpoint Policy:The "Policy" field shows "Default," indicating that the endpoint has been assigned the Default endpoint policy.

Connection Status:The "Location" field shows "Off-Fabric," meaning that the endpoint is currently off the corporate network (off-net).

Therefore, the two conclusions that can be made are:

The endpoint has been assigned the Default endpoint policy.

The endpoint is currently off-net.

FortiClient offers several types of antivirus scans to ensure comprehensive protection:

Full scan:Scans the entire system for malware, including all files and directories.

Custom scan:Allows the user to specify particular files, directories, or drives to be scanned.

Quick scan:Scans the most commonly infected areas of the system, providing a faster scanning option.

These three types of scans provide flexibility and thoroughness in detecting and managing malware threats.

Based on theFortiClient EMS 7.2/7.4 Administration Guideand the provided exhibit of theSystem Settings Profile, the expected behavior for an invalid certificate connection is determined by theInvalid Certificate Actionsetting.

1. Analysis of the Exhibit

Location:The exhibit shows theSystem Settings Profile(specifically the "Default" profile).

Setting:At the bottom under theEndpoint Controlsection, the fieldInvalid Certificate Actionis configured.

Selected Action:The dropdown forInvalid Certificate Actiondisplays awarning icon(an orange triangle with an exclamation mark). In the FortiClient EMS GUI, this specific icon corresponds to the"Warn"action.

2. Verified Behavior (Option C)

According to the curriculum documents regardingEndpoint Communication Security:

Warn Action Behavior:When theInvalid Certificate Actionis set toWarn, FortiClient is instructed to display a warning message to the end user if the EMS server certificate is untrusted, expired, or has a hostname mismatch.

User Prompt:The warning message explicitly asks the user whether they wish to proceed with the connection despite the security risk or terminate the attempt.

Connection Logic:If the user manually accepts the warning, FortiClient will establish the Telemetry connection and "remember" the certificate for future sessions to avoid repeated prompts for that specific server.

3. Why Other Options are Incorrect

A. FortiClient is blocked:This behavior only occurs if the administrator selects the"Deny"action in the profile.

B. Additional password required:The password field shown at the top of the exhibit is for"Require Password to Disconnect From EMS", which prevents users from manually unregistering, but it does not bypass or resolve certificate errors.

D. EMS pushes a valid certificate:EMS cannot "push" a valid identity certificate to resolve a failed TLS handshake; a valid certificate must be manually installed on the EMS server by the administrator.

Based on the Zero Trust Tagging Rule Set configuration shown in the exhibit:

The rule set includes two conditions:

AV Software is installed and running

OS Version is Windows Server 2012 R2 or Windows 10

The Rule Logic is specified as "(1 and 3) or 2," meaning:

The endpoint must have antivirus software installed and running and must be running Windows 10.

Alternatively, the endpoint must be running Windows Server 2012 R2.

Therefore, the endpoint must satisfy either:

Antivirus is installed and running and Windows 10 is running.

Windows Server 2012 R2 is running.

Based on theFortiClient EMS 7.2/7.4 Administration Guideand theEMS Administrator Study Guide, the integration with Active Directory (AD) provides several automated management capabilities.

1. Analysis of the True Statements:

B. FortiClient installations on domain endpoints can be deployed from FortiClient EMS:

FortiClient EMS allows administrators to createDeployment Profilesspecifically for Windows endpoints discovered via AD.

By providingAD administrator credentialswithin the deployment profile, EMS can remotely push the FortiClient MSI installer to domain-joined endpoints that do not yet have the software installed.

C. Endpoint profiles can be assigned to endpoints based on domain groups:

The core benefit of AD integration is the ability to mapEndpoint Policiesto specificAD Organizational Units (OUs)orSecurity Groups.

When an endpoint policy is assigned to an AD group, all FortiClient endpoints belonging to that group automatically receive the associated security profiles (Antivirus, Web Filter, VPN, etc.) defined within that policy.

2. Why Other Options are Incorrect/Secondary:

A. FortiClient EMS has full read-write access on the AD server:

The curriculum states explicitly that theLDAP/AD connection is read-only.

EMS cannot modify AD objects, create users, or change group memberships; it only synchronized information from the AD server to the EMS database.

D. Imported AD endpoints cannot be directly deleted on FortiClient EMS:

While technically true in a functional sense (deleting a synced endpoint will result in it being re-added during the next sync unless it is removed from the AD OU), the curriculum typically prioritizesB and Cas the primary functional "features" of the integration.

Note that the guide specifies the "Delete" action in the Endpoints pane is restricted tonon-domain devicesto prevent synchronization conflicts.

3. Summary of Integration Features:

Sync Schedule:EMS periodically syncs with AD (default every 10 minutes) to update the endpoint list.

Policy Automation:Moving a user or computer to a different group in AD will cause EMS to automatically update their security posture based on the new group's assigned policy.
