Free Practice Questions for Fortinet FCP_FCT_AD-7.4 Exam

When FortiClient is installed on a Windows Server, the default behavior for real-time protection control is:

Real-time protection is disabled:By default, FortiClient does not enable real-time protection on server installations to avoid potential performance impacts and because servers typically have different security requirements compared to client endpoints.

Thus, real-time protection is disabled by default on Windows Server installations.

Deployment Profiles Analysis:

Deployment-1 has the "First-Time-Installation" package and is assigned to "All Groups" with a priority of 1 but is not enabled.

Deployment-2 has the "To-Upgrade" package, is assigned to both "All Groups" and "trainingAD.training.lab," with a priority of 2 and is enabled.

Evaluating Deployment-2:

Deployment-2 will upgrade FortiClient on both "All Groups" and "trainingAD.training.lab" since it is enabled and assigned to these groups. This includes both AD (Active Directory) groups and workgroups.

Conclusion:

Since Deployment-2 is set to upgrade FortiClient on all the assigned groups and workgroups, the correct answer is A.

Understanding Quick Scan Function:

The quick scan option on FortiClient is designed to scan certain elements of the system quickly for threats.

Evaluating Scan Scope:

The quick scan specifically targets executable files, DLLs, and drivers that are currently running, providing a rapid assessment of the active components of the system.

Conclusion:

The correct answer is D, as it accurately describes the function of the quick scan option on FortiClient.

Observation of Web Filter Exclusions:

The exhibit shows a web filter exclusion for "*.facebook.com" with the action set to "Allow."

Evaluating Actions:

This configuration means that FortiClient will allow access to Facebook and its subdomains.

Conclusion:

When users try to access "www.facebook.com ," FortiClient will allow the access based on the web filter exclusion settings.

According to theFortiClient EMS 7.4 Administration Guide, for an organization to integrate with an identity management infrastructure while enforcing administrative access with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), the primary supported methods for remote administrator authentication areRADIUSandSAML.

1. RADIUS (Answer B)

Identity Integration:FortiClient EMS allows administrators to addRADIUS serversas an authentication source under theAdministration > Authentication Serverssection.

MFA Support:RADIUS is a standard protocol for enforcing MFA. In this scenario, FortiClient EMS acts as a RADIUS client to an external MFA provider (such as FortiAuthenticator, RSA Authentication Manager, or Duo).

Workflow:When an administrator attempts to log in to the EMS console, EMS sends an Access-Request to the RADIUS server. If the provider requires MFA, it can challenge the user (via push notification or token code) before sending an Access-Accept back to EMS.

2. SAML (Answer D)

Modern Identity Management:SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) is the preferred method for integrating with modern cloud and on-premises Identity Providers (IdPs) likeMicrosoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD),Okta,AD FS, orFortiAuthenticator.

Native MFA Enforcement:By using SAML SSO, the authentication and MFA process are handled entirely by the IdP. The EMS server acts as the Service Provider (SP). When an admin logs in, they are redirected to the IdP, where the company's existing MFA policies (Conditional Access, etc.) are enforced before the user is granted access back to the EMS console.

EMS Configuration:The curriculum details specific SAML SSO configurations for various IdPs under theSAML SSOsection of the Administration Guide.

3. Why Other Options are Incorrect/Insufficient

A. LDAPS:While FortiClient EMS supports importing users fromActive Directory (ADDS)via LDAP/LDAPS for endpoint management and basic admin login, standard LDAPS does not natively support or enforce an MFA challenge-response workflow in the same integrated way that RADIUS or SAML does for administrative console access.

C. TACACS:TACACS+ is primarily used for device administration on networking equipment (like FortiGate) and is not a listed or standard method for administrative authentication within the FortiClient EMS software documentation.

Based on the Security Fabric automation settings shown in the exhibit:

The automation stitch is configured with a trigger for a "Compromised Host."

The action specified for this trigger is "Quarantine FortiClient via EMS."

This indicates that when an endpoint is detected as compromised, FortiClient EMS will quarantine the endpoint as part of the automation process.

Therefore, the action taken on compromised endpoints will be to quarantine them through EMS.

Understanding ZTNA Rule Configuration:

The ZTNA rule configuration shown in the exhibit defines how traffic is managed and controlled based on specific tags and conditions.

Evaluating Rule Components:

The rule includes security profiles to protect traffic by applying various security checks (A).

The rule also enforces access control by determining which endpoints can access the specified resources based on the ZTNA tag (D).

Eliminating Incorrect Options:

SNAT (Source Network Address Translation) is not mentioned as part of this ZTNA rule.

The rule does not define the access proxy but uses it to enforce access control.

Conclusion:

The correct statements about the ZTNA rule are that it applies security profiles to protect traffic (A) and enforces access control (D).

Observation of Exhibits:

The exhibits show the Zero Trust Tag Monitor on FortiClient EMS and the FortiClient GUI status.

Remote-Client is tagged as "Remote-Endpoints" on the FortiClient EMS Zero Trust Tag Monitor.

Enabling Tag Visibility:

To show the tag on the FortiClient GUI, the endpoint alerts configuration must be adjusted to enable tag visibility.

Verification:

The correct action is to change the endpoint alerts configuration to enable tag visibility, ensuring that the tag appears in the FortiClient GUI.

Based on the exhibits provided:

The "Remote-Client" is tagged as "Remote-Users" in the FortiClient EMS Zero Trust Tag Monitor.

To ensure that the tag "Remote-Users" is visible in the FortiClient GUI, the system settings within FortiClient need to be updated to enable tag visibility.

The tag visibility feature is controlled by FortiClient system settings which manage how tags are displayed in the GUI.

Therefore, the administrator needs to change the FortiClient system settings to enable tag visibility.
