Question 1:

You want FortiAnalyzer to trigger an automation stitch on a FortiGate device automatically. What must you configure on FortiAnalyzer to enable direct communication with FortiGate?
A. A Fabric connector
B. A playbook task
C. The Fabric settings
D. An event handler
Answer: C
Explanation:
The Fabric settings. The study guide ties FortiAnalyzer-triggered actions to the Security Fabric relationship with FortiGate, not to playbook tasks or standalone event handlers alone. It explains that “within the Security Fabric environment, FortiAnalyzer is a key element in the creation of automation stitches” and shows the flow where a downstream FortiGate sends logs to FortiAnalyzer, then FortiAnalyzer parses the logs and notifies the root FortiGate, after which the root FortiGate triggers the action. This shows that FortiAnalyzer must be configured so it can communicate with FortiGate through the Security Fabric.
The guide also states that FortiAnalyzer is the foundation of the Security Fabric, providing logging, reporting, analytics, and automation for Fabric devices and endpoints. It further explains that the FortiAnalyzer Fabric connector consolidates the traffic logs within the Security Fabric. This confirms that the automation workflow depends on proper Security Fabric integration.
A playbook task is used for automated SOC actions, and an event handler is used to generate events from logs, but neither one alone establishes the direct communication path needed between FortiAnalyzer and FortiGate. Therefore, the required configuration on FortiAnalyzer is the Fabric settings.

Question 2:
For the installation of your first FortiGate device, you want to minimize the impact in your OT network. Therefore, you deploy it initially as an offline IDS. Which two statements about this deployment are correct?
A. The FortiGate device acts as a network sensor.
B. The cybersecurity visibility increases with the security profiles.
C. Attacks, including zero-day attacks, are blocked.
D. OT traffic flows through the FortiGate device.
Answer: A,B
Explanation:
Deploying a FortiGate in offline IDS (also known as one-arm sniffer mode) is a common strategy in OT environments for several reasons.

Question 3:

In your OT environment, you want to detect the devices passively. Which two methods must you implement?
A. SSH
B. SNMP
C. Vendor OUI
D. Network traffic
Answer: C,D
Explanation:
The study guide explicitly separates active/direct profiling methods from passive/non-direct methods and states that “In OT environments, passive methods are preferred over active methods.” It then lists the methods that do not require FortiNAC to interact directly with the device being profiled. Among those methods are “Network traffic: gathered from the infrastructure” and “Vendor OUI: determined by the MAC address gathered from the infrastructure.” That directly matches options C and D.
Options A and B are incorrect because SSH and SNMP are shown in the guide under the direct/active profiling methods. The guide’s point is that passive detection avoids directly scanning or interacting with OT endpoints, since that can negatively affect performance in industrial environments. Because the question specifically asks for passive detection methods, the correct pair is Vendor OUI and Network traffic.

Question 4:

You want to protect OT devices that are not updated against known vulnerabilities so you apply virtual patching to the firewall policies. What must you check to confirm that the OT devices are virtually patched?
A. The output of the CLI command get virtual-patch profile
B. The OT View page
C. The output of the CLI command get rule otvp status
D. The Asset Identity List page
Answer: C
Explanation:
In the Virtual Patching section, the study guide shows the workflow where FortiGate queries FortiGuard for device-specific vulnerabilities, receives OT virtual patching signatures, maps them to the device MAC address, and then explicitly displays the CLI verification command get rule otvp status together with fields such as Rule-name, Vuln_type, and Cve. This is the direct confirmation mechanism shown in the guide for checking whether OT devices have virtual patching rules associated with them.
The other options are less accurate for confirmation. The OT View page is for Purdue-level visualization, and the Asset Identity List page shows device and asset information, but neither is presented in the guide as the command or control used to verify virtual patching status. The study guide specifically uses get rule otvp status as the status check tied to virtual patching behavior.

Question 5:

As the first step in your OT network protection plan, you must identify the OT protocols that the FortiGate device supports. Which two configurations must you implement on this FortiGate device?
A. You must enable Device detection on all the interfaces.
B. You must implement an Application Control security profile that monitors OT.
C. You must enable the OT signatures.
D. You must implement an Intrusion Prevention security profile that monitors OT.
Answer: B,C
Explanation:
The study guide states that “You can use application control signatures to detect OT protocols” and that “Application control detects the protocols used in applications like Modbus, IEC 104, and the contents of the telecontrol messages”. It also shows that a Modbus application control profile can be enabled on a firewall policy “for OT protocol visibility in the monitor status.” This directly supports B, because application control is the feature used to identify and monitor OT protocols on FortiGate.
The guide also explains under IPS that “By default, OT signatures are excluded from the signatures lists on the GUI until you enable them on the CLI” using config ips global and set exclude-signatures none. Once enabled, FortiGate can use those OT signatures for OTaware inspection and protection. That supports C as the second required configuration. A is related to device discovery, not protocol identification, and D is focused on exploit and vulnerability detection rather than the first-step goal of identifying OT protocols.
